Get to Know Composite AI

Why You Need Composite AI

Innovate faster, with maximum value, to achieve better results. Composite AI delivers the AI advantage to your customers and your organization.

Accelerated Innovation

The Challenge

Organizations are facing more complex problems than ever before, involving vast quantities and multiple types of data. Solving them requires a combination of innovative analytic approaches.

The SAS Composite AI Advantage

SAS Viya provides AI and advanced analytics capabilities in a single platform that spans the end-to-end analytics life cycle.

Empowerment for Everyone

The Challenge

Organizations often lack (and struggle to find) the skilled resources to address all their analytics challenges.

The SAS Composite AI Advantage

Composite AI is for everyone – not just data scientists – with low-code/no-code interfaces available for less-skilled users. It democratizes data access and analysis, minimizing reliance on expensive and hard-to-find skilled resources.

Explainability & Trust

The Challenge

Unexplainable AI models can lead to distrust and concerns about bias.

The SAS Composite AI Advantage

Explainability is built into SAS, providing lineage and model interpretability explained in business language.

Faster Time to Value

The Challenge

While different tools, frameworks and technologies can fuel innovation and creativity, this splintered approach entails a level of complexity that makes it difficult to turn analytics into value.

The SAS Composite AI Advantage

By operating on a single platform, you can reduce costs and the risk of project failure – hastening both innovation and time to value through faster model deployment.

Why choose SAS for composite AI?

  • Composite AI, according to Gartner, is the "combination of different AI techniques to achieve the best result.” Another term for this is "multidisciplinary analytics," and SAS has been helping customers build such systems for many years.​ Gartner 2020 Hype Cycle for Emerging Technologies
  • By 2024, 70% of organizations relying solely on ML for AI initiatives will spend more money per model than those leveraging composite AI techniques. Gartner Predicts 2022: Artificial Intelligence Core Technologies
  • SAS brings multiple technologies and prebuilt applications to the composite AI table. It isn't just machine learning; it's a combination of techniques – statistics, data mining, forecasting, optimization, natural language processing (NLP), computer vision and others – depending on the business problem you're trying to solve. SAS provides them all under a single platform, making SAS unique in the AI and analytics space.
