Atlassian’s State of Developer Experience survey asked 3,500 developers what AI capability would actually move the needle for them. Rather than faster code generation or better autocomplete, what they actually wanted most was AI that helps their teams plan and spec work clearly enough for agents to execute it reliably. That answer points to a…
Kyndryl and Broadcom on Thursday rolled out new consulting services for VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF), tweaking the initiative to be an AI program and pledging to invest in the skills development of several thousand certified Kyndryl consultants, architects, and delivery specialists to enable agentic workflows. “Against the backdrop of rising sovereignty demands, enterprises are rationalizing…
Every agent you add multiplies your output, but it also multiplies the surface area your governance has to cover. The question every CIO should be asking is how to review at your new output volume without lowering your standards. The answer is to be deliberate about what a person looks at and what the system…
Uber’s experience highlights a new enterprise AI challenge: adoption can scale faster than an organization’s ability to measure economic value.

Whatever it is, it looks great in the deck. The CFO…
Achieving return on investment is impossible without knowing the total cost of ownership (TCO) of an initiative — and when it comes to AI, CIOs are finding cost calculations anything but straightforward. Subscription and token costs are a big part of the calculus, but several other factors go into the cost of AI projects, says…
Every decade or so, a new form of infrastructure becomes the thing that separates economies that compound from economies that stagnate. In the 20th century, it was ports, highways and power grids. Right now, it’s compute. And governments around the world are scrambling to get a piece of it — offering land, tax breaks and…
Over the past few years, much of the conversation has focused on autonomous AI and how quickly organizations can remove humans from decision-making. In financial services, we’re seeing the opposite trend. The organizations making the most sustainable progress aren’t eliminating human oversight—they’re redesigning it. The model taking hold within the banking industry isn’t AI that…
Earlier this year, Meta, one of the industry’s loudest AI advocates, was ready to slash up to 60% of the members of some teams and replace them with AI, as part of what it called Project OT (Organization Transformation), an initiative to make Meta “AI native.” But it backed off at the last minute after…
