This is nearly 10% more than in 2022. This has put pressure on site reliability engineers to fix issues quickly. Therefore, companies are turning to <a data-autolink=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tipranks.com\/compare-stocks\/artificial-intelligence\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">artificial intelligence<\/a> for help. These systems help spot the cause of problems but aren\u2019t yet trusted to fix things on their own, mainly because they lack an undo button and a clear way to reverse mistakes. However, tech giant IBM <a data-ticker=\"IBM\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tipranks.com\/stocks\/ibm\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">(IBM)<\/a> and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign created a system called STRATUS to help solve this issue. <\/p>\n<p>Meet Your ETF AI Analyst<\/p>\n<p>Like the undo shortcut Ctrl+Z, STRATUS can automatically roll back bad decisions made by <a data-autolink=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tipranks.com\/compare-stocks\/artificial-intelligence\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">AI<\/a> agents during incident responses. For example, if a fix makes things worse, STRATUS resets the system to a safe checkpoint in order to try another solution. Interestingly, in tests using open-source cloud benchmarks from Microsoft <a data-ticker=\"MSFT\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tipranks.com\/stocks\/msft\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">(MSFT)<\/a> and IBM, STRATUS outperformed other top tools by at least 150%. <\/p>\n<p>Moreover, STRATUS relies on a method called transactional-no-regression (TNR), which means that it only allows changes that can be reversed and that won\u2019t break anything. For example, if an agent tries to delete a database, the system stops it unless it\u2019s safe and undoable. As a result, researchers believe that this model could be used for more than just cloud outages.<\/p>\n<p>Is IBM a Buy, Sell, or Hold?<\/p>\n<p>Turning to Wall Street, analysts have a Moderate Buy consensus rating on IBM stock based on seven Buys, five Holds, and one Sell assigned in the past three months, as indicated by the graphic below.
