What's New in Altair AI Studio 2025.0.0?

Released: Dec 12, 2024

The following sections describe what's new in Altair AI Studio 2025.0.0

Java 17 is finally supported & required by AI Studio going forward! This brings a host of new language capabilities and enhancements to our development teams, as well as future extension development.

Added possibility to refer to files bundled with a connection from connection parameters
Improved some error messages from the expression parser. The location of the error inside the expression is now indicated with colors and underlines instead of carets.
Added an file type selection option for AI Tools files (e.g. models, processes, tables, …) to the Import Data wizard.
Added a drag & drop action to the process view as well as the repository view that starts the Import Data wizard, when dropping a single AI Tools file onto it.
Additional java startup options can now be specified by the environment variable AISTUDIO_JAVA_OPTS
Updated git version for projects in lockstep with AI Hub
Packaged executables are now installed directly into the installation directory instead of the internal cache
Removed packaged 7zr.exe from dependencies
Removed OSX support from platform independent build
When Korean is selected as language, a compatible font is now selected automatically
Updated dependencies in accordance with AI Hub
Improved install procedure for Studio on OSX so it is not tagged as malicious in some anti virus scanners anymore (AI Studio now requires MacOS 13 (Ventura) or higher)
Added a new setting allowing to set the default file encoding to UTF-8. This is a Beta setting and might be removed again. Also, use this setting with caution as it might break existing files.

Fixed “Unknown” as title for some operator help files
Fixed Interactive Analysis of data tables with non-ascii names
Fixed Interactive Analysis menu items to be displayed correctly on all platforms
