Intel Corp. (Nasdaq: INTC), the DigitalBridge Group, Inc. (NYSE: DBRG), and other investors combined think tanks and formed Articul8 AI, a vertically-optimised and secure generative artificial intelligence (AI) platform.

Reportedly, Intel did not elaborate on the value of this joint venture or its interest in it. The chipmaker did however confirm that this new organisation will have an independent board of directors, not be publicly listed, and that it is a shareholder.
Earlier work in collaboration with Boston Consulting Group (BCG) laid the foundation for Articul8 AI (pronounced Articulate AI). It has now been scaled for business segments requiring top-shelf security and specialised databanks. These include financial services, the aerospace industry, semiconductors, and telecommunications.
