I could see a partnership with Amazon
where Veritone provides aiWare capabilities to Bedrock, and in turn, Amazon helps scale Veritone's verticals.

But still no revenues to substantiate. And still no sense of urgency to get going with Veritone Hire.

I agree somewhat I think the only saving grace is if the DOD's been using aiWARE and that's why nothing has been marketed. We know the JAIC was using aiWARE just a question if now the CDAO is still using it.

Re: #10,553: @cpeter7 - Veritone talks about "engine" capabilities. I wonder if

Bedrock not limited to LLM models.

And hard for me to believe that aiWare is competing against Bedrock. If that were the case, then its clearly a losing proposition. I don't think RS is that stupid.

You go on AWS Marketplace, and says Veritone Investigate powered by AWS, not aiWare. If aiWare competing with Bedrock, then obviously Veritone doing a lousy job of it.

He's mentioned Bedrock publicly at least twice, first saying, aiWare is the original Bedrock, then yesterday saying aiWare is cloud agnostic version of Bedrock.

DMH runs on aiWare. AWS demonstrated an AWS version of DMH. RS said AWS their primary cloud partner yesterday.

But, still no evidence of any Veritone revenue ramp associated with AWS GTM partnership. And still very quiet on Veritone Hire.

Aiware becoming irrelevant. If relevant would have had buyouts, investments, PRs anything announcing these capabilities. But nothing except to say cloud agnostic. Soon every other big name will have their own version of Aiware or Bedrock etc. Aiware done again just as an internal platform. And soon Veri will follow right behind as irrelevant.

Seems like they've already surpassed aiWARE. I sure hope they are utilizing aiWARE and AION file types but who knows.

"Tens of thousands of customers have already selected Amazon Bedrock as the foundation for their generative AI strategy because it gives them access to the broadest selection of first- and third-party large language models (LLMs) and other foundation models (FMs) from leading AI companies, including AI21 Labs, Anthropic, Cohere, Meta, Mistral AI, Stability AI, and Amazon, along with leading ease-of-use capabilities to quickly build and deploy generative AI applications."

Yes, a cloud agnostic version of Bedrock. And said more mature. Just can't figure out why they have not touted aiWare and capabilities since RS took over as CEO. Any time Ryan speaks, there is never any urge to try to sell Veritone products or platform. Talks more about AI for good, and industry in general. Hope they have a plan in place.

Re: #10,536: @cpeter7 - Ya agreed I mean I understand why details

"But to not be touting aiWARE at all to me is not a good sign. Also to with CS’s ouster aiWARE development/adoption couldn’t have been going to well. "

There is a chance that aiWare not being touted because it is being integrated into other platforms like Adobe or Amazon Bedrock.

When you think about it, considering Veritone's financial position, and the fact that they threw a good share of their money into HR tech, are they really in the position to be competitive with aiWare as a standalone platform. The likes of Adobe and Amazon have an unlimited supply of money to throw into their platforms. Also, is it reasonable to expect that huge entities like the DOD or DOJ would rely on Veritone for the ongoing servicing and developing of aiWARE. I think any future for aiWare lies in the integration of aiWare capabilities into other platforms, and that could be the reason why Veritone not touting aiWare. Still, need execution and results. The fact that we are still left to speculate is not encouraging at all.

I expected more from the new website. The HR features still direct you to Pando and Broadbean websites. My guess is that the website is a work in progress, but still frustrating. The partner list is the same partner list from back when they had the energy business. That is tacky to me to still be listing the various energy companies as partners. And we know they have a list of HR partners like Linkedin, ADP, Indeed, Bullhorn. Why don't they list those partners on the partner page.

I expected more from AWS at NAB concerning Veritone. We read about GTM plans with AWS. Still nothing for Veritone investors to see.

"seems like aiWARE is low in the stack and vital to AI models running efficiently."

Agree, and like you say, Veritone not interested in pumping the stock.

This article concerning Adobe at NAB, you can see that Adobe has the same aiWARE like ideas for their future.

"Adobe sees a future in which thousands of specialized models emerge, each strong in their own niche. "
https://www.newscaststudio.com/2024/04/15/adobe-generative-ai-adobe-premiere-pro-nab-2024/

You can look at the Amazon Bedrock demonstrations at NAB, and see that they are going in the same direction, all about onboarding third party AI models.

Veritone not interested in touting aiWARE. Apparently have a new version, but don't want anyone to know about it. Took aiWare off AWS marketplace. Don't even have DMH on AWS marketplace.

Well if they don't want to market it, then the benefits of aiWARE should at least show up in revenues and guidance. If they don't want to talk about it AND not showing up in revenues or guidance, then how do you assign any credibility to them.

If aiWare not in the game now, doubt it ever will be. Up to Veritone to Execute.

Maybe it's true what RS says "Demand exploding for aiWare and applications." His words mean nothing anymore. And we got enough of that unsubstantiated BS from CS. Time to Execute.

If so, would be massive seems like aiWARE is low in the stack and vital to AI models running efficiently.
