China’s hyperscalers bet billions on agentic AI as commerce becomes the new battleground

The artificial intelligence industry’s pivot toward agentic AI—systems capable of autonomously executing multi-step tasks—has dominated technology discussions in recent months. But while Western firms focus on foundational models and cross-platform interoperability, China’s technology giants are racing to dominate through commerce integration, a strategic divergence that could reshape how enterprises deploy autonomous systems globally. Alibaba, Tencent […]

Franny Hsiao, Salesforce: Scaling enterprise AI

Scaling enterprise AI requires overcoming architectural oversights that often stall pilots before production, a challenge that goes far beyond model selection. While generative AI prototypes are easy to spin up, turning them into reliable business assets involves solving the difficult problems of data engineering and governance. Ahead of AI & Big Data Global 2026 in

Databricks: Enterprise AI adoption shifts to agentic systems

According to Databricks, enterprise AI adoption is shifting to agentic systems as organisations embrace intelligent workflows. Generative AI’s first wave promised business transformation but often delivered little more than isolated chatbots and stalled pilot programmes. Technology leaders found themselves managing high expectations with limited operational utility. However, new telemetry from Databricks suggests the market has

Anthropic selected to build government AI assistant pilot

Anthropic has been selected to build government AI assistant capabilities to modernise how citizens interact with complex state services. For both public and private sector technology leaders, the integration of LLMs into customer-facing platforms often stalls at the proof-of-concept stage. The UK’s Department for Science, Innovation, and Technology (DSIT) aims to bypass this common hurdle

Controlling AI agent sprawl: The CIO’s guide to governance

Corporate networks are filling up with AI agents, creating a governance blind spot for leaders managing multi-cloud infrastructures. As distinct business units race to adopt generative technologies, CIOs especially find their ecosystems populated by fragmented and unmonitored assets. This mirrors the shadow IT challenges of the cloud era, but involves autonomous actors capable of executing

Balancing AI cost efficiency with data sovereignty

AI cost efficiency and data sovereignty are at odds, forcing a rethink of enterprise risk frameworks for global organisations. For over a year, the generative AI narrative focused on a race for capability, often measuring success by parameter counts and flawed benchmark scores. Boardroom conversations, however, are undergoing a necessary correction. While the allure of

SAP and Fresenius to build sovereign AI backbone for healthcare

SAP and Fresenius are building a sovereign AI platform for healthcare that brings secure data processing to clinical settings. For data leaders in the medical sector, deploying AI requires strict governance that public cloud solutions often lack. This collaboration addresses that gap by creating a “controlled environment” where AI models can operate without compromising data

Scaling AI value beyond pilot phase purgatory

Scaling AI value from isolated pilots to enterprise-wide adoption remains a primary hurdle for many organisations. While experimentation with generative models has become ubiquitous, industrialising these tools (i.e. wrapping them in necessary governance, security, and integration layers) often stalls. Addressing the gap between investment and operational return, IBM has introduced a new service model designed

JPMorgan Chase treats AI spending as core infrastructure

Inside large banks, artificial intelligence has moved into a category once reserved for payment systems, data centres, and core risk controls. At JPMorgan Chase, AI is framed as infrastructure the bank believes it cannot afford to neglect. That position came through clearly in recent comments from CEO Jamie Dimon, who defended the bank’s rising technology
