Even companies eager to jump on the GenAI bandwagon have struggled to organize their data and get past deployment hurdles, and nobody likes to spend all that time, effort, and money to build technology that can't be shipped because it can't be trusted.
Happy New Year! Today: after years of hype and investment, enterprise generative AI applications are still awaiting their breakout moment, the data-center investment boom continues, and the latest funding rounds in enterprise tech.
This year marked a turning point for enterprise tech as spending recovered and the economy stabilized following years of rising interest rates and supply-chain disruption. While no one knows what lies ahead, here are five things we thought summed up a pivotal year.
There are lots of companies interested in generative AI apps with money but limited skills. They'll need helpful platform tools to get up and running, and competition in this category could set the tone for the enterprise AI era.
Today: why experiments with enterprise AI apps are increasingly moving outside corporate walls, how a really weird glitch almost took down the internet, and this week's enterprise moves.
Microsoft is bent on installing Copilots into all of its services across Azure, Microsoft 365, and GitHub, which continues to enjoy the most visible success of Microsoft's AI kick.
Today: how Microsoft plans to turn its investments in OpenAI's generative AI technology into revenue, a newly discovered security flaw impacts just about everybody running a widely used piece of open-source software, and the latest funding rounds in enterprise tech.
Today: why U.S. chip companies have invested billions in making Israel into an alternative chip-making powerhouse, Ampere and Qualcomm team up to tackle AI inference, and the latest enterprise moves.
Chip companies have invested billions in Israeli manufacturing and design facilities over the past decade, and they've continued that push over the last six months. A unique talent base and a rich history of tech innovation drew them in, but the region's instability looms over that decision.
