The AI View From the Front Line Seat

Now look, I have already covered the “Insights from GoogleCloudNext 2024” earlier this year — and yet this time it’s different.

Front row seats to Partner Roundtable conversations

While I am attending The #GoogleCloudPartner #Summit 🌍 once-again as a Partner — it being yet another another great success, more tools, super capable services — Gemini Context window is now 2 million tokens — thats 2 hours of video to ingest and work with, in one sitting for example. AI is fast becoming 10x multiplier (or more) which is disrupting the business cases and whole very business ecosystems need to be reworked, with such fast pace of change, its hard to keep up.

And Yet, The Tone of excitement was somewhat subdued.

I think I know why.

As we do head into 2025 and about the close the year, it’s evident that we’re knee-deep in this AI transformation , the enablement, the fixer, the magic wand-(erer). And yet the feedback from the industry, the clients, the market is still all-so-excited, and yet
- why is it being so cautious?
- Is it just the macro climate?
