NEC Develops Marketing Strategy Planning & Effectiveness Simulation Technology Using Generative AI
NEC Corporation (NEC; TSE: 6701) has developed a marketing strategy planning & effectiveness simulation technology that utilizes generative AI to identify latent needs of customers and generate optimal measures. According to an NEC survey, this is the world’s first technology that can automatically visualize customer interests and preferences (i.e. psychograhic attributes), generate measures, and predict customer responses to those measures. NEC aims to launch services with this technology in 2024

The Five Step Playbook to Move GenAI into Production
In this contributed article, Josh Reini, Developer Relations Data Scientist, TruEra, discusses how gaining the required confidence to deploy GenAI apps at scale can be challenging, and structured evaluation has gained recognition as a key requirement on the path from science experiment to customer value. Evaluation frameworks can play a critical role in this journey by allowing developers to run experiments faster and gain systematic validation for production readiness. Connecting such an evaluation framework with a scaled observability platform brings confidence in production. This article explores five practical steps to move LLM applications from early prototypes to scaled, production applications.
