RapidMiner Studio is now Altair AI Studio. This release incorporates the new Altair RapidMiner platform branding across the entire application. With this rebranding, we’ve introduced a new splash screen and a logo to welcome you to Altair AI Studio.

Revamped Installation Process.

A new, revamped installation process allows you to seamlessly install and use multiple versions of AI Studio. You can experiment with new features while keeping your current installed version. The new process also provides a migration step to move your repositories and extensions to the new version.

With the 2024.0 release, the AI Studio home and user home have also been changed.

For example, the default AI Studio home directory on Windows would be ~\.AltairRapidMiner\AI Studio.
