Many customers are wondering where they should build their LLMs and if that is going to be able to retain business context of the data and the underlying business logic. With the integration of generative AI models from Amazon Bedrock, SAP customers will be able to access high-performing LLMs and other foundation models to build applications customized with their own data - Making it even more easier for our customers to embed GenAI in the context of their business processes.

It’s easier to see the breadth of a trend in the market than the depth, but it’s the deep trends that leave markets permanently transformed. 📈 Look at cloud sales partnerships. Every year, more & more B2B transactions happen through #cosell and cloud marketplaces. The lower friction and extra reach of the marketplaces are driving 70% YoY growth- we’re pacing for $45B in partner sales across the major cloud providers this year. A big portion of that growth is driven by broader adoption. ⏩ More companies are #listing their products and closing their first deals through the marketplace, and more companies are investing in tools like WorkSpan that list on marketplaces, #cosell and embed marketplace transactability into their CRMs to drive seller participation. That’s the "breadth" of the marketplace trend. ⏬ But we’ve also reached a point of maturity where growth is being driven by the "depth" of cloud marketplace adoption. Sophisticated cloud partners aren’t just using marketplace transactions to rescue stalled deals with pre-committed cloud budgets as a one off, they’re making the lower friction of cloud marketplaces a core part of their sales strategy & customer lifecycle. They’re creating dedicated partner overlay teams to drive effective co-selling motions at a global scale. They’re co-selling multiparty, services + software deals and closing them on the marketplace. They’re baking co-sell automation into their freemium / PLG product flows to automatically offer one-click upsell contracts through cloud marketplaces. A temporary surplus in cloud budgets might drive a market trend and a broad rush to participate in cloud marketplaces. But cloud marketplaces have unlocked much deeper ways to partner and powerful new ways of co-selling. ⚡ B2B selling now has Cloud GTM as a permanent pillar and it is never going to be the same!

Where do #CIOs and #CFOs come in when it comes to RevOps? In an era of rapid #AI innovation, navigating the line between tech and business is crucial. As said by Mitch Edwards, principal at the Alexander Group, "...each company’s revenue operations are different and CIOs should understand their companies’ business needs as well as the AI itself." The gist? Don't get ahead of yourself. Start with the problem you're trying to solve, not the tech. And perhaps most importantly, make sure there's true alignment and partnership across the client, technology, and finance functions of the business. #RevOps #Innovation #BusinessGrowth

Great read Dave! 🙌 This post (https://dy.si/Do7hc) highlights the importance of a holistic approach to automation, focusing on enhancing existing systems rather than just replacing them. At Broadcom's Agile Operations Division, we strongly agree that the key is to leverage existing ERP investments while breaking down automation silos. This is where Automic Automation shines. It's not about integrating another tool but rather about creating a cohesive platform that connects everything – cloud, on-premises, and even legacy systems. Automic enables businesses to unlock the true potential of their ERP investments by extending processes, facilitating seamless data exchange, and accelerating delivery of new functionalities. By taking this approach, organizations can achieve true agility and gain maximum value from their automation investments. #ERP #Automation #Automic #Broadcom #AgileOperations https://dy.si/qbSkm

Earlier this week, I had the pleasure of speaking at the NYSE tech summit, alongside Oracle CIO Jae Sook Evans, Talkdesk CIO Jeff Haslem, and C3 AI President Ed Abbo. We talked about the topic du jour - impact of generative AI on business productivity Here is what I learned from our discussion as well as listening to the attendees. 😢 The curious case of missing business productivity Everyone has moved on from the earliest use cases of "writing better emails". While these use cases were magical, they have not delivered business value. However, they see opportunity in service operations such as IT, HR, Finance and in GTM operations.  This is why we built the Plugin Library which lists 100s of AI agent use cases to drive business productivity forward. https://lnkd.in/ghtWm4UZ 💩Poor data quality All leaders I spoke to shared that data quality remains a big impediment to deriving value from AI. Businesses sit on mountains of data that has largely been left uncared for. Data can be missing, inaccurate or historical, or the permissions are overly broad. In many cases, there are conflicting sources of data (eg revenue data in CRMs but also in emails, and internal documents) However, all is not lost here. Everyone has pockets of high value data. Operations run books in all companies seem to be clean. Be it IT support manuals, HR policies, or GTM collateral. Often, business data that resides in CRM, HRIS, ERP systems is also clean. As a result, C-suite leaders are connecting generative AI tools to these pockets of clean data, while they invest in isolating or fixing other data issues. At Moveworks, our customers use Knowledge Studio which helps them improve data quality when it comes to employee service manuals. This tool uses generative AI to identify gaps in content (missing data), recommends new or updates to content, and finally uses ticket notes to create high quality grounded content. https://lnkd.in/gMf4j7jY 🤥 Hallucinations - grounding is not enough! The initial promise of grounding to prevent hallucinations has faded. Despite grounded generation, end users continue to be misled due to a variety of hallucinations - from making up data to lack of citations to confusing classifications (such as contractors vs contingent workers). Turns out simply prompting an LLM to be truthful does not make them truthful! We saw this first hand last year and built many techniques in our Copilot to counter this problem. We invested heavily in citation presence and entity linking for a variety of business objects like people, business objects, and sources. We also built a fact checking model that inspects LLM generated summaries for factfulness against citations. All in all, it was a stellar and insightful event. I came away inspired and enlightened. Thank you Lynn Martin and Chuck Adkins!
