Earlier this year, I wrote about how vibe coding an AI governance platform forced me to rethink governance itself. Building agents took the problem much further. When I built the platform, I was the operator. I described what I wanted. The model generated code. I tested it. That loop was fast, sometimes uncomfortably fast, but…
For the past two years, the conversation around AI has focused on which industries it will disrupt. But AI’s rapid growth is also creating a major infrastructure challenge. As investment pours into data centres and supporting infrastructure, the AI boom is becoming central to delivering the next wave of the digital economy, reshaping construction in…
CrowdStrike has seen customers use our no-code agent-building workspace, Charlotte AI AgentWorks, to build thousands of AI agents. We’ve been fascinated by how they are designed and which ones become top-performing agents invoked hundreds or thousands of times in daily operations. Below are the design properties these agents share. What top-performing security agents have in…
The Swedish AI company Berget AI, together with researchers from the Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI) and the organizations WattTime and Klimatkollen, has developed a new method for calculating how much carbon dioxide different AI requests generate. The aim is to make the AI ​​industry’s climate impact more transparent and give companies the opportunity to compare different suppliers.…
Most enterprise data was designed to be consumed by people. But automation and AI agents will soon make up a much larger share of the workforce. KPMG’s Global Tech Report predicts that digital assistants will account for 36% of core technology teams’ capacity by 2027, up from 28% in 2025. This is why data readiness…
Microsoft expanded its sovereign cloud offerings on Tuesday, adding new security, governance and AI capabilities as customers, particularly in Europe, demand greater assurance over where data is stored, who can access it and how critical services operate during disruptions. The announcement builds on Microsoft’s ongoing digital sovereignty efforts, assisting organizations in applying appropriate levels of…
For most of the last three decades, the technology organization’s authority rested on something simple: it held capabilities nobody else had. If the business wanted software, it came to IT. That arrangement no longer holds. A marketing team can now assemble a working customer-facing prototype over a long weekend using three AI tools, including some…
CIOs bring a lot to their new jobs: decades of leadership, transformation, pattern-recognition, and outcomes. But none of that matters in your new job. During a time of generalized uncertainty, your team — and every stakeholder — needs to trust you more than anything. But how do you build that trust in a new environment,…
Few CIOs are likely to suddenly decide to give an AI agent broad authority over corporate systems. The more likely path to autonomy is far less dramatic. An agent starts with a narrow task. It proves useful, so another system is connected. It then needs more data, so another permission is added. Then human approval…
For years, disaster recovery was built around a relatively simple question: How quickly can we get the business back online? That question still matters. But for today’s CIO, it is no longer enough. Enterprise technology environments have become too dynamic to define recovery simply as restoring applications, reconnecting infrastructure and resuming operations. Applications span on-premises…
