TWIET 46 – Jan. 21, 2025

This Week in Enterprise Technology, Hyoun Park and Charles Araujo critically assess the biggest tech news for the CIO Office:

  1. DOGE is Not a Department. It’s a Service. 
  2. Can OpenAI Influence America’s AI Policy?
  3. Google Gemini Wants 500 Million Users
  4. Microsoft Restructures to Support Agents
  5. ServiceNow Acquires CueIn for Conversation Analysis
  6. ContextualAI Launches for Custom RAG

DOGE is Not a Department. It’s a Service. 

For months, we have heard about DOGE, an effort to reduce government spending. But the current version of DOGE is a rebranding of the United States Digital Service, an existing organization focused on data audit and software modernization. Is this an effort to get closer to the data or a gentle offloading of Elon Musk from the campaign?

The White House: https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/establishing-and-implementing-the-presidents-department-of-government-efficiency/ 

OpenAI Influence America’s AI Policy?

OpenAI is seeking to influence U.S. A.I. policy with an “AI in America” blueprint to encourage investment and minimize regulations. CEO Sam Altman recently donated to Donald Trump’s inaugural fund to gain favor with the new administration. Can OpenAI push the US to accept more Middle Eastern investments for A.I. technology?

New York Times: https://www.nytimes.com/2025/01/13/technology/openai-economic-blueprint.html

Google Gemini Wants 500 Million Users

Google CEO Sundar Pichai wants 500 million users on Gemini before the end of the year. Remember the good old days when it was remarkable to have 100 million users? Hyoun and Charles discuss if the race to gain users is coming at the expense of actually building products that people might want to use.

Microsoft Restructures to Emphasize Agents

Microsoft is restructuring to support its agentic approach. This may be a sign that CIOs may need to start potentially transforming the IT department to also take a more agentic approach. 

Microsoft also seeks to increase the uptake of Copilot. Microsoft has relaunched its free AI chat tool, Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat, to encourage businesses to adopt AI in the workplace. Microsoft hopes that by using Copilot Chat, businesses will see its value and be tempted to subscribe to the full Microsoft 365 Copilot service for $30 per month. But the value proposition still seems confusing as Charles and Hyoun discuss.

The Verge: https://www.theverge.com/2025/1/15/24344214/microsoft-365-copilot-chat-agents-pricing-availability 

ServiceNow Acquires CueIn for Conversation Analysis

ServiceNow accelerates its agentic AI roadmap with acquisition of conversation analysis platform Cuein. Charles and Hyoun are interested in seeing how this signals a bigger step for ServiceNow into customer-facing use cases and speculate how this is the start of a broader goal of developing a set of intelligent, integrated customer facing systems and expanding beyond the internal workflow. 

ServiceNow: https://www.servicenow.com/company/media/press-room/servicenow-to-acquire-cuein.html?ref=runtime.news 

ContextualAI Launches for Custom RAG 

Contextual AI launches its custom Retrieval Augmented Generation capabilities for general availability. This is interesting because it speaks to the evolution of agentic AI and the need for enterprises to support RAG at scale to manage true enterprise-grade agentic AI.

This Week in Enterprise Technology, Hyoun Park and Charles Araujo critically assess last week’s biggest tech news:

  1. NVIDIA Makes AI More Accessible with Project Digits
  2. NVIDIA Nemotron: Advantage or Market Tension?
  3. NVIDIA, Google, and the Future of AI-Powered Robotics
  4. KPMG: 2025 is the Year of AI Deployment
  5. Open AI’s Pro Pricing Dilemma: How We’d Fix It
  6. Half of CIOs Struggle to Own Enterprise AI Responsibilities 
  7. Nékojita FuFu Revolutionizes Coffee Ecosystems

NVIDIA Makes AI More Accessible with Project DIGITS

Project DIGITS provides the Blackwell GPU chip to developers starting at the relatively low cost of $3,000. Given the promise of AI and the need to understand AI, it’s hard to ignore the appeal for developers to develop and tune AI models on their own desktops without dependence on cloud-based costs. Charles and Hyoun ask if this is too good to be true. 

NVIDIA Project DIGITS Press Release: https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/project-digits/   

NVIDIA Nemotron: Advantage or Market Tension?

NVIDIA announces a new family of models based on Meta Llama with a focus on agentic tasks and designed to support models from edge devices to data centers.  Hyoun and Charles discuss their use as reference technologies and their importance in supporting NVIDIA’s leadership AI role. 

Emilia David’s coverage on VentureBeat: https://venturebeat.com/ai/nvidias-ai-agent-play-is-here-with-new-models-orchestration-blueprints/?utm_source=AmalgamInsights 

NVIDIA Nemotron Blog: https://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/nemotron-model-families/ 

NVIDIA, Google, and the Future of AI-Powered Robotics

Google seeks to simulate the physical world with a new set of world models, a hot area in the startup world, but also an area where Charles and Hyoun believe Google has some unfair advantages that could lead to relatively quick success in creating interactive media and realistic simulations to support contextualized digital twin use cases. 


Jess Weatherbed on The Verge: https://www.theverge.com/2025/1/7/24338053/google-deepmind-world-modeling-ai-team-gaming-robot-training 

KPMG: 2025 is the Year of AI Deployment

KPMG’s latest AI Quarterly Pulse Survey provided an interesting snapshot of enterprise activity associated with AI. Perhaps the most interesting data point here, which got Charles’ attention, was about the expectation of investing between $50 million and $250 million on generative AI next year. Hyoun was more interested in the adoption intentions. But all roads lead to the increasingly obvious conclusion that 2025 will be an important year for AI deployments.

Open AI’s Pro Pricing Dilemma: How We’d Fix It

Kyle Wiggers from TechCrunch covers how OpenAI CEO Sam Altman reveals that the ChatGPT Pro plan at $200 per month is not profitable. Hyoun and Charles identify several reasons why this should be expected and discuss whether OpenAI should care about having profitable products, given their inability to accurately price and structure their technologies as products.

Kyle Wiggers on TechCrunch: https://techcrunch.com/2025/01/05/openai-is-losing-money-on-its-pricey-chatgpt-pro-plan-ceo-sam-altman-says/ 

Half of CIOs Struggle to Own Enterprise AI Responsibilities 

Based on a study of 125 Chief Data and AI officers, Randy Bean and Tom Davenport find that the majority of Fortune 1000 companies surveyed are not putting technology leaders in charge of AI, preferring to have this in the hands of the business or with a transformation team. Charles and Hyoun discuss the dangers of CIOs being out of the loop when it comes to leading AI efforts, both for the CIO and for the company’s AI goals

Paul Barker at CIO.com: https://www.cio.com/article/3800869/study-probes-trends-around-ai-in-the-enterprise.html 

Nékojita FuFu Revolutionizes Coffee Ecosystems

Perhaps one of the most transformational technologies of our generation, Nékojita FuFu revolutionizes the world of coffee by providing multiple modes of blowing on hot food and drink. At $25, Hyoun is sold on the notion that this device will be more profitable than many AI deployments this year. Charles is more skeptical.

1. How Does Florida’s Pornhub Ban Affect Content Access?

At the beginning of 2025, Florida placed a new age and ID verification requirement for adult content leading to notorious site PornHub leaving the state. Behind the shock value, this is a trend in the United States with 19 states now having specific ID verification requirements for certain types of content. What does this mean for businesses seeking to provide content?

2. 6th Circuit Kills Net Neutrality: IT Investment Concerns

The United States Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals decided on January 2, 2025 to repeal the concept of net neutrality, the idea that content should be treated equally by networks. Now that networks have no legal obligation to treat content equally, what does this mean for software providers and for large enterprises providing content over the Internet? Will networks play favorites? Will hyperscalers need to team up with networks?

3. Has Google Figured Out GenAI’s Killer App?

Despite Google’s undeniable groundbreaking work in AI, Google is finding itself playing catch-up in the enterprise AI world. Google DeepMind has unveiled Project Astra and Gemini 2.0  to enhance generative AI. Astra is intended to act as a multimodal universal assistant using text, speech, and images. The technology is interesting and novel, but Charles and Hyoun debate whether Google will figure out how to productize this technology.

4. Agentforce 2.0 Evolves Enterprise Agentic AI

Salesforce announced Agentforce 2.0, one of the first 2.0 products in the Agentic AI world. Among other things, Salesforce upgraded its agentic capabilities, included more of Saleforce’s ecosystem directly into the Agentforce offering, and doubled its commitment to AI sales. Hyoun and Charles discuss how the Salesforce AI technology ecosystem stands up in a heated AI market.

5. What Is the Future of AI Pricing?

CIO.com’s Grant Gross takes on one of the most interesting topics in tech: the conundrum of pricing for AI. Charles and Hyoun explore a varied portfolio of pricing strategies and maturity models, along with a classic Harvard Business Review article, that will shape the future of AI FinOps and cost.

6. Aaron Levie Clarifies the Value of AI Access to PCs

Box CEO Aaron Levie is no stranger to sticking his neck out when it comes to predicting the future of enterprise software. In a recent X post, Levie elucidates the value of AI agents accessing browsers and personal computers from an information access perspective. Charles and Hyoun discuss a future where the agent is more empowered to directly connect users and apps.

7. Bench’s Rough Winter Break: Enterprise SaaS Considerations

Bench was once known for having raised over $110 million to support small and medium business accounting needs and posted of having over 35,000 US customers. But on December 27, all that changed as venture debt became due, and Bench was unable to pay. Hyoun and Charles warn of how this may be a harbinger for the volatility of SaaS solutions in 2025 that have not provided a Plan B to customers.

8. Felicis Outlines The Promise of Lights Out Ops

IT ops has long been a consuming, demanding, and challenging job to support. Venture capital firm Felicis provides its vision on the future of IT management with a strong assist from AI. Charles and Hyoun are fully onboard with this vision, but we point out some of the challenges of taking on current enterprise stalwarts, such as ServiceNow and Atlassian.

9. Is AI Your New Organizational Strategist?

On Wired, Wharton professor Ethan Mollick argues that AI can serve as a new organizational management strategist to help connect people, show new relationships between employees, and even help structure the company more optimally. Charles and Hyoun debate AI‘s readiness to serve as the strategist both from a discovery perspective and whether existing employee management systems are ready to support this vision.

10. Are AI Hallucinations About Being Wrong or Being Creative?

What is an AI hallucination? In this recent New York Times article, scientists including recent Nobel Prize winner David Baker are described as using AI hallucinations in their research when they are using AI to design theoretical or prospective proteins. Is using AI to take a defensible and novel approach a hallucination? Or are we starting to overuse the term hallucination when it comes to AI? Charles and Hyoun dig into the problematic nature of the AI hallucination.

This Week in Enterprise Tech, Week 3

This Week in Enterprise Tech, brought to you by the DX Report’s Charles Araujo and Amalgam Insights’ Hyoun Park, explores six big topics for CIOs across innovation, the value of data, strategic budget management, succession planning, and enterprise AI.

1) We start with the City of Birmingham, which is struggling with its SAP to Oracle migration. We discuss how this IT project has shifted from the promise of digital transformation to the reality of being in survival mode and the cautions of mistaking core services for innovation.

Article link: https://www.theregister.com/AMP/2024/02/28/birmingham_city_council_to_spend/

2) We then take a look at Salesforce’s earnings, where the Data Cloud is the Powerhouse of the earnings and CIOs are proving the value of data with their pocketbooks and the power of the purse. We break down the following earnings chart.


3) We saw NVIDIA’s success in AI as a sign that CIO budgets are changing. Find out about the new trend of CIO-led budgets that are independent of the traditional IT budget, as well as Charles’ framework of separating the efficiency bucket from the innovation bucket from his first book, The Quantum Age of IT.

Article link: https://www.wsj.com/articles/corporate-ai-investment-is-surging-to-nvidias-benefit-5611ffc5?mod=djemCIO

4) One of the hottest companies in enterprise software sees a big leadership change, as Frank Slootman steps down from Snowflake and Sridhar Ramaswamy from the Neeva acquisition takes over. We discuss why this is a good move to avoid stagnation and discuss how to deal with bets in innovation.

Article link: https://www.cnbc.com/amp/2024/02/28/new-snowflake-ceo-says-ai-will-keep-him-busy-for-many-years-to-come.html

5) Continuing the trend of innovation management, we talk about what Apple’s exit of the electric car business means in terms of managing innovative moonshots and what CIO’s often miss in terms of setting metrics around leadership and innovation culture.

Article link: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/28/business/dealbook/apple-car-project-to-drive-wider-innovation.html?referringSource=articleShare&smid=nytcore-ios-share

6) And finally, we talk about the much-covered Google Gemini AI mistakes. We think the errors themselves fall within the range of issues that we’ve seen from other large language models, but we caution why the phrase “Eliminate Bias” should be a massive red flag for AI projects.

Analyst Insight: The Decision to Replace Legacy Planning Solutions with Workday Adaptive Planning

Today, Amalgam Insights has published the following Analyst Insight: The Decision to Replace Legacy Planning Solutions with Workday Adaptive Planning. This report explores the decisions of eight Workday Adaptive Planning customers interviewed in 2022 to understand why companies chose to switch to Workday Adaptive Planning from another financial planning and budgeting solution.

The decision to choose a planning, budgeting, and forecasting solution is a complex one in 2023 as we have had to adjust to the challenges of more agile planning cycles using a wide range of data, the shift from purely financial planning to a broader array of business planning demands, as well as the need to create more scenarios based on the wide variety of potential business drivers and outcomes that are now potentially anticipated. Planning is treated less as a fixed, deterministic exercise and increasingly as a stochastic and broadly variable process that is ongoing and continuous.

In that light, when does it make sense to consider another planning solution? Our research shows that the following traits were most common in organizations that ended up switching to Workday Adaptive Planning.

Key drivers for switching to Workday Adaptive Planning

To learn more about why these traits showed up and the best practices that these companies discovered for making a solution change for a technology used to support executive demands and managing the cash flow lifeblood of the company, visit the Workday website for a free copy of the report.

This report is also available for purchase on the Amalgam Insights website.
