"With the growth, we didn't get corresponding productivity increases in our company." In an interview at #BrainstormAI in Singapore, Glean cofounder and CEO Arvind Jain shared that when he founded his previous company, Rubrik, he noticed a decline in productivity as the company grew compared to when it was a smaller organization. "We asked employees what was in the way of getting high productivity, and our surveys showed that people were really struggling to find information at work," he added.

Is Oracle's "generous" offer of free AI training in Singapore really as benevolent as it seems? 🤔 While on the surface, it appears to be a noble effort to boost the nation's digital workforce, let's dig deeper. Are these training programs truly about empowering individuals, or are they just a clever strategy to cultivate a pool of skilled workers who will ultimately serve Oracle's interests? And what about the environmental and social impact of Oracle's plans to open a new data center? Sure, it may enhance technological capabilities, but at what cost to sustainability and resource management? Let's not forget the ethical implications of AI and cloud computing. As Singapore races ahead in embracing these technologies, are we adequately addressing concerns around data privacy, security, and sovereignty? It's time to move beyond the hype and ask the tough questions. What do you think? 🔥 #AI #TechEthics #DataPrivacy #OracleSingapore

Oracle has announced a plan to train up to 10,000 students and professionals in artificial intelligence over the next three years in Singapore. Among the initiatives is the offer of 300 internships and apprenticeships to polytechnic students, who will have an opportunity for employment within Oracle or its partners post-training. From my perspective, this initiative will be beneficial for both Singapore and Oracle. Launching education initiatives can have several strategic advantages, both internally for operations and externally for market and community impact. Let's delve deeper into why I believe this. 1) These initiatives can serve as a direct pipeline for recruiting top talent. Participants who have completed Oracle's training programs are more likely to be considered for recruitment, already knowing the company's culture and processes. 2) They will improve their CSR profile by contributing to education, enhancing public perception, and increasing brand loyalty among consumers. 3) They are also expanding their user base by educating potential users on their technologies. For example, Oracle training individuals on its specific platforms or tools increases the likelihood that these tools will be adopted. 4) Education initiatives can strengthen the ecosystems around their products or services by increasing the number of people who can use or support their technology. 5) Companies that are actively involved in education may have a greater voice in policy discussions related to technology and education. This could potentially influence regulations that affect their business. 6) In industries with stringent regulation, investing in societal goods like education can generate goodwill with regulatory bodies. In conclusion, Oracle's educational initiatives in Singapore represent a forward-thinking strategy that supports its business goals while contributing positively to the broader tech landscape. As Oracle continues to expand its influence in cloud computing and AI, its commitment to education and community engagement will likely serve as a cornerstone of its ongoing success and influence in the tech industry. This is a commendable model of how integrating corporate strength with community development can lead to sustained growth and innovation.

Oracle executive vice president of applications development, Rondy Ng, has announced that the company has been introducing generative AI abilities into its cloud infrastructure and applications. The classic AI is already very good in terms of detecting patterns or predicting numbers. But you cannot use large language models to predict numbers. So we combined the predictive numbering capability with the explained ability in words. The two together become very powerful and you need both. Oracle has announced additional generative AI features embedded across applications in finance, supply chain, human resources, sales, marketing, and service. The generative AI capabilities can perform tasks such as generating financial reports and drafting job ads, improving productivity and reducing business costs."
