VLMの核心に迫る――視覚と言語を繋ぐ技術の仕組み 人工知能（AI）の世界で今、大きな注目を集めているのが「VLM（Vision-Language Model：視覚言語モデル）」と呼ばれる技術です。これは、単に画像に写っているものを認識したり、テキストの意味を理解したりする従来のAIとは一線を画します。VLMは、人間の視覚とことばの能力を融合させたかのように、画像や動画といっ...| VLM（視覚言語モデル）をわかりやすく解説 | CIO

I spend a lot of time with operations leaders who have excellent visibility … but disappointing outcomes. The paradigm is that we invest heavily in detection, correlation and dashboards, then depend on human heroics. It’s the smoke-alarm-without-a-sprinkler problem. From a CIO’s perspective, the competitive metric is no longer just mean time to detect (MTTD). It’s become mean time to contain (MTTC), the time between the first credible signal and a concrete action that limits damage. S...| VLM（視覚言語モデル）をわかりやすく解説 | CIO
CIOs are staring down a paradox. Employees are moving faster than ever with agentic AI. They’re using tools like Copilot, ChatGPT and embedded SaaS agents to build automations and streamline workflows on their own. The upside is enormous: productivity gains and new ideas are bubbling up from every corner of the business. But the risks — security, compliance and data exposure — are just as real. The challenge to CIOs isn’t whether to allow this shift (really, what choice do we have?). ...| VLM（視覚言語モデル）をわかりやすく解説 | CIO
AI offers workers the promise of increased efficiency and productivity, freeing them up from repetitive work to tackle more complex tasks. But as companies have rolled out AI tools to employees, many are facing a different challenge: AI-generated work that does the opposite. The quality of AI-generated content depends in large part on the skills of the person collaborating with the tool, and not everyone has been equipped with the right skillsets in this area, resulting in what the Stanford S...| VLM（視覚言語モデル）をわかりやすく解説 | CIO
On a global average, CIOs hold 1.8 different positions, according to Foundry’s State of the CIO 2025 survey. So while some see themselves strictly as CIOs, others take on CTO, CISO, chief innovation officer, or COO duties. Responsibilities for data and AI management are increasing as well, so roles of CDO and CAIO are part of the CIO orbit, too. In larger companies, these positions are more independent, where the CIO is supported by other tech positions, so collaborating effectively with...| VLM（視覚言語モデル）をわかりやすく解説 | CIO

오랫동안 에너지 기업은 변화와 가장 거리가 먼 산업으로 여겨져 왔다. 가정에 전기를 공급하는 일은 필수적이었지만, 영감을 주거나 흥미로운 일은 아니었다. 수도처럼 당연한 공공재로 인식됐기 때문이다. 하지만 NRG 에너지는 인수와 파트너십, 그리고 ‘발전회사’의 개념을 새롭게 정의하는 움직임으로 기존 인식을 바꾸고 있다. 단순한 전력 공급을 넘어 전기를 흥미롭...| VLM（視覚言語モデル）をわかりやすく解説 | CIO
