In this episode of the *Eye on AI* podcast, we explore the world of AI at Google Cloud with Nenshad Bardoliwalla, Director of Product Management for Vertex AI.

Nenshad unpacks the three core layers of Vertex AI: the Model Garden, where users can access and evaluate a diverse range of models; the Model Builder, which supports model fine-tuning and prompt optimization; and the Agent Builder, designed to develop AI agents that can perform complex, goal-oriented tasks.

He shares insights into model evaluation strategies, the role of Google’s Tensor Processing Units (TPUs) in scaling AI infrastructure, and how enterprises can choose the right models based on performance, cost, and regulatory requirements.

Nenshad also delves into the challenges and opportunities of AI prompt optimization, highlighting Google’s approach to ensuring consistent outputs across different models. He discusses the ethical considerations in AI design, emphasizing the need for human oversight and clear guardrails to maintain safety.

Whether you’re in AI, tech, or curious about AI's potential impact, this episode is packed with insights on next-gen AI deployment.
