Salesforce Doubling Investment in A-I Technology

Salesforce is the latest major high-tech company to increase its investment in A-I technology …

“The technology is very new” says Silicon Valley high-tech observer Rob Enderle “But it’s also going so rapidly that folks can’t keep up with it.”   

Salesforce is doubling its investment in A-I to 500-million dollars less than a month after Venture Capitalists spent $11B on A-I start-ups in Silicon Valley.

“Because so many companies were caught kind of napping, the ramp is almost vertical” Enderle says “This is like the old dot-com feeding frenzy from the late 90’s.” 

Interest has exploded across the business world since CHAT G-P-T was put on full display back in November.

To that end: Salesforce is also unveiling new security tools that would stop A-I from being coaxed into leaking confidential customer data. 

“This is applied A-I, it’s the first time we’ve had an A-I you can apply to specific individual workloads.”

Industry observers believe A-I could drive a massive new high tech spending spree: like cloud computing & mobile apps.
