AI’s financial blind spot: Why long-term success depends on cost transparency
Presented by Apptio, an IBM company When a technology with revolutionary potential comes on the scene, it’s easy for companies to let enthusiasm outpace fiscal discipline. Bean counting can seem short-sighted in the face of exciting opportunities for business transformation and competitive dominance. But money is always an object. And when the tech is AI, those beans can add up fast. AI’s value is becoming evident in areas like operational efficiency, worker productivity, and customer satisfacti...

The unexpected benefits of AI PCs: why creativity could be the new productivity
Presented by HP Creativity is quickly becoming the new measure of productivity.

Cisco warns enterprises: Without tapping machine data, your AI strategy is incomplete
Cisco executives make the case that the distinction between product and model companies is disappearing, and that accessing the 55% of enterprise data growth that current AI ignores will separate winners from losers. VentureBeat recently caught up with Jeetu Patel, Cisco's President and Chief Product Officer and DJ Sampath, Senior Vice President of AI Software and Platform, to gain new insights into a compelling thesis both leaders share. They and their teams contend that every successful produc...

World's largest open-source multimodal dataset delivers 17x training efficiency, unlocking enterprise AI that connects documents, audio and video
AI models are only as good as the data they're trained on. That data generally needs to be labeled, curated and organized before models can learn from it in an effective way. One of the big missing links in the AI ecosystem has been the availability of a large high-quality open-source multimodal dataset. That changes today with the debut of the EMM-1 dataset which is comprised of 1 billion data pairs and 100M data groups across 5 modalities: text, image, video, audio and 3d point clouds. Multimo...

Bessemer Bets on War Worries in Europe
The name of Bessemer Venture Partners is tied closely with the cloud software boom of the 2010s. The backer of Twilio, Shopify and Zoom even created its own Nasdaq index of cloud software companies , which I look at often to track the ups and downs of the market. But it’s not a good time to be a software investor. That index of cloud stocks has badly lagged the overall market as corporate customers spend more on AI and less on older software. Where there’s a growing pile of money for startups is...

What We Learned From Salesforce’s Dreamforce; Using OpenAI and Anthropic For Different Tasks
