IBM released the latest version of its Artificial Intelligence (AI) models catered towards businesses on Monday, looking to capitalise on the surge in enterprises adopting generative AI technology.

'Granite 3.0' models will be made open-source, similar to other versions in IBM's Granite family of AI models. This approach differs from rivals such as Microsoft that charge customers for access to their models.

In turn, IBM offers a paid tool called Watsonx that helps run models inside data centers after they have been customised.
