• Title: Towards Democratizing AI: A Comparative Analysis of AI as a Service Platforms and the Open Space for Machine Learning Approach
• Authors: Dennis Rall, Bernhard Bauer, Thomas Fraunholz
• Abstract summary: We compare several popular AI-as-a-Service platforms and identify the key requirements for a platform that can achieve true democratization of AI. Our analysis highlights the need for self-hosting options, high scalability, and openness. Our approach is more comprehensive and effective in meeting the requirements of democratizing AI than existing AI-as-a-Service platforms.

• Abstract: Recent AI research has significantly reduced the barriers to apply AI, but the process of setting up the necessary tools and frameworks can still be a challenge. While AI-as-a-Service platforms have emerged to simplify the training and deployment of AI models, they still fall short of achieving true democratization of AI. In this paper, we aim to address this gap by comparing several popular AI-as-a-Service platforms and identifying the key requirements for a platform that can achieve true democratization of AI. Our analysis highlights the need for self-hosting options, high scalability, and openness. To address these requirements, we propose our approach: the "Open Space for Machine Learning" platform. Our platform is built on cutting-edge technologies such as Kubernetes, Kubeflow Pipelines, and Ludwig, enabling us to overcome the challenges of democratizing AI. We argue that our approach is more comprehensive and effective in meeting the requirements of democratizing AI than existing AI-as-a-Service platforms.

  In recent years, there has been an increased emphasis on understanding and mitigating adverse impacts of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies on society. A significant challenge in the design of ethical AI systems is that there are multiple stakeholders in the AI pipeline, each with their own set of constraints and interests. This position paper outlines some potential ways in which generative artworks can play this role by serving as accessible and powerful educational tools.
