Google makes its biggest enterprise move, but can it make up lost ground?
Google has struggled for years to sink real teeth into the enterprise, but it may have just found its path to take on Microsoft and AWS as an AI cyber giant and gain real relevance as an enterprise cloud AI platform. This massive acquisition of Wiz also firmly positions Google directly against cyber vendors, namely Palo Alto Networks and CrowdStrike. If it plays this well, Google could end up closing this gap to both AWS and Microsoft in the enterprise AI platform market as cloud, cyber, and AI become completely intertwined. However, with AWS dominating a third of the global cloud market and Google barely having more than 10%, Google will have to tread carefully to avoid alienating the vast portfolio of Wiz customers. It has to prove to its new Wiz cyber clients it can be cloud-agnostic to optimize this massive investment.Read More

People aren’t stupid. Pretending your bots are human will make you fail
Humanizing bots while dehumanizing humans risks creating a soulless enterprise in which efficiency wins, but humanity loses. The meteoric rise of Agentic AI is fundamentally reshaping workplace dynamics as systems evolve from basic automation tools into autonomous digital workers that can execute complex tasks, make decisions, and even mimic human collaboration patterns. In short, after all the noise about bots replacing workers in the workplace over the past decade-plus, we now have technology that is still being positioned by many tech vendors to do just that. This evolution poses a double-edged challenge for enterprise leaders. While Agentic AI promises to unlock massive productivity gains and operational efficiencies, it also threatens to erode the human elements that drive innovation and organizational resilience. Meanwhile, employees face growing pressures to compete with tireless digital counterparts and productivity-obsessed work environments, further straining workplace culture. Read More
