Infosys, a global contributor in next-generation digital services and consulting, has announced its collaboration with Linux Foundation Networking (LFN), the facilitator of collaboration and operational excellence across open source networking projects, to advance Responsible artificial intelligence (AI) principles and spur the adoption of domain-specific AI across global networks. This collaboration underscores a shared commitment to fostering responsible, effective and sustainable AI technologies on a global scale.
As part of this initiative, Infosys has contributed its Responsible AI Toolkit and AI application development framework, part of Infosys Topaz AI offerings, to two new networking projects – Salus and Essedum. Powered by Infosys’ comprehensive Responsible AI Toolkit, Salus offers advanced technical guardrails to detect and mitigate AI risks like bias, privacy breaches and harmful content, while enhancing model transparency. Built on Infosys’ seed code and existing AI networking solutions, Essedum uses its AI application development framework to accelerate the integration of AI data, models and applications within the networking industry.
“Our efforts to further domain-specific AI are coming to fruition with the addition of these new projects, and we are incredibly grateful to Infosys for their contributions,” said Arpit Joshipura, the general manager of networking, edge and IoT at the Linux Foundation. “Creating combined, open and unified frameworks will only accelerate AI-driven innovation. By introducing accessible solutions for Responsible AI and integrating data sharing, domain-specific AI tools, and application development under one roof, we are enabling the industry to build smarter, more efficient networks.”
“At Infosys, we are deeply committed to advancing innovation that solves complex challenges while upholding transparency, fairness and trust. Our collaboration with the Linux Foundation is a testament to our shared vision of embedding Responsible AI principles into actionable solutions. Linux Foundation’s efforts in driving excellence in open-source networking projects have been remarkable. With our strong AI capabilities, powered by Infosys Topaz, we actively support this endeavour, helping organisations harness domain-specific AI responsibly and effectively across global networks,” said Mohammed Rafee Tarafdar, the chief technology officer at Infosys.
