At Deploy London 2025, DigitalOcean introduced significant updates to the Gradient AI Platform, enhancing its capabilities for building AI applications. New features include Image Model Support, allowing text-to-image generation via OpenAI's gpt-image-1 model, and Knowledge Base Auto-Indexing, which automatically updates knowledge bases from connected sources like Google Drive and Amazon S3. The platform now offers enhanced security with VPC integration, enabling secure, private network connections. Additionally, the upcoming Gradient AI Agent Development Kit and Gradient AI Genie will provide developers with powerful tools to build, test, and manage AI agent workflows directly from their development environments, supporting both code-first and visual tool preferences. These updates aim to streamline the development process, offering greater security and efficiency for developers and enterprises working with AI technologies.
