Taiwan, long known for its supply chain prowess, has entered a new era of innovation with the launch of Project TAME, an initiative aimed at establishing the country as a major AI player. This ambitious project brings together industry leaders, including Chang Chun Group, Pegatron, and Unimicron, in collaboration with National Taiwan University’s Departments of Computer Science and Information Management and LegalSign.
At the heart of Project TAME is the development of the world’s first traditional Chinese language expert model, a move that promises to revolutionize AI applications in Taiwan and beyond. With the support of Nvidia Taiwan, this open-source project is poised to unite academia and industry in a shared goal of creating AI-driven solutions tailored to Taiwan’s unique needs.
From Automation to Autonomous
Pegatron, a leader in the manufacturing sector, is leveraging AI to transition from automation to autonomous operations. The company’s implementation of PEGA AI and PEGAVERSE has paved the way for innovative applications such as site simulation and defect detection. As AI and digital twins become essential for advancing manufacturing, Pegatron is set to continue investing in related technologies and applications.
A Consortium of Experts
Chang Chun Group, another key player in the consortium, is developing a comprehensive command center that integrates AI-driven predictive analysis with robotics for general applications. The company’s AI strategy is designed to achieve effective learning through demonstration training, ensuring that Taiwan’s petrochemical industry remains competitive in an ever-evolving global landscape.
Catalyzing AI Software Development
Project TAME’s focus on large language models (LLM) and its commitment to open-source development is set to catalyze AI software development in Taiwan. As more companies seek to harness the power of AI, this initiative will provide the necessary infrastructure and expertise to support the development of AI-driven applications across various industries.
