Enjoyed the discussion with John Furrier at the NYSE. We covered bi-coastal innovation, cloud and AI. The cloud business is experiencing rapid expansion. Q3 ‘24 performance was robust across all 3 hyperscalers driven by advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) and increased enterprise demand. Here’s a quick summary of recent earnings announcements: Amazon Web Services reported revenue of $27.5 billion, marking a 19% year-over-year increase. Operating income reached $10.4 billion, up 48% vs YA. AWS maintained its leading position with a 31% share of global cloud. Amazon CEO Andy Jassy noted a “reacceleration” in AWS growth, attributing it to enterprise modernizing their infrastructure and embracing generative AI. Microsoft’s Intelligent Cloud segment, which includes Azure, reported $24.1 billion in revenue, a 20% increase year-over-year. Operating income was $10.5 billion, up 18% from previous year. Microsoft held a 20% share of the global cloud. CEO Satya Nadella highlighted advancements in AI-driven applications and infrastructure. Google reported cloud revenue of $11.4 billion, representing a 35% year-over-year growth. Operating income surged to $1.9 billion, up from $266 million in the same period last year. Market share increased to 13% with growth driven by strong demand for AI infrastructure and generative AI solutions. CEO Sundar Pichai noted the company’s commitment to AI innovation. The big story is the growing allocation of capex to build data center capacity to support the AI service expansion. Amazon, Microsoft and Google disclosed they spent a total of $50.6 billion on property and equipment last quarter, compared with $30.5 billion in the same period last year. Wall Street is watching the conversion of capital investment to revenue generation closely. SiliconANGLE & theCUBE

In "Transcending Limits: The Power of the Human Spirit in Legendary Performances," the essay explores the remarkable phenomenon of mind-over-matter in exceptional performers like Celine Dion and Anita Mui. It delves into the complex interplay of neurochemical responses, spiritual influence, and a strong sense of purpose that enable individuals to transcend physical limitations and achieve greatness. Highlighting the role of mindset, emotional engagement, and spiritual connection, the essay illustrates how these elements contribute to extraordinary feats, emphasizing that such performances are not just about physical prowess but a profound manifestation of the human spirit. https://lnkd.in/gTJ4vwWm

A great piece on how A.I. driven solutions can be leveraged in supply chain, manufacturing, and operations to unlock efficiencies and create resilience: - Move quickly to scope, define, and act - Select well-defined high-value use cases that your teams can solve with experts - Take advantage of "all of your data" with digital twins and let intelligence do the work for you (but keep humans in the loop) - Look to streamline and automate complex tasks in planning, prioritization, - Ensure the use cases and solutions are adopted, iterated on, and improved #supplychain #artificialintelligence #digitaltransformation #digitatwins #manufacturing

🔥Partnerships hiring alert🚨 When May Habib took a bet on me in 2021, we were also taking a bet on the pivotal role GSIs and consultancies -- and partnerships with these firms -- would have driving genAI transformation across enterprises. We tend to be “ahead of our time” here at Writer, including our approach to GTM and technology. A Series B company already investing in partnerships!? And your partnerships are more than just a press announcement!? Heck ya, they are — because our team is grinding and collaborating as one team with some of the best partners in the world, as our teams jointly craft the enterprise genAI playbook. 💪 Our team approaches partner development the same way one would approach a complex enterprise sales process — first you have to sell the partner on why they should be spending time with Writer and building a practice around Writer, amidst all of the genAI ‘noise’. That first part is really tough — these partner firms are wildly matrixed, with various decision-makers and approaches to consider. And then you have to convince and enable hundreds of account teams to deliver your joint value proposition in a space that’s continuously changing. Our early bet, tenacity and approach have been imperative to our success as a team — and we help our partners win, the same way they are helping us win. But there’s a lot more work to be done. And that’s why 🎉 we’re ready to hire our next Partner Leads in both the US and UK 🎉 to continue building and flying the plane. If you’re interested in joining this mission, feel free to apply directly. Any questions, hit me up!

Some really provocative ideas in this article that challenge us to reimagine leadership for the AI era. AI expert Nell Watson prompts us to imagine a future where AI takes on leadership roles in business and beyond. But don't picture a robot manager just yet. AI's superhuman ability to process vast amounts of data and spot hidden patterns makes it an attractive candidate for high-level decision-making. But who's accountable when an AI makes a costly mistake? How do we ensure these leaders align with our values? Can AI generate the kind of contrarian, innovative thinking we need in a leader? What do you think? Can you imagine an AI leader in the C-suite? #artificialintelligence #leadership #empathy
