In this podcast, Logan Bartlett sits down with Marc Benioff, the co-founder and CEO of Salesforce, to explore how artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming the commercial landscape. They discuss the immense potential of digital agents—a trillion-dollar opportunity—and how AI revenue is shifting the focus from traditional software earnings. Benioff shares compelling examples, including a significant nine-figure deal with a telecom client, where AI contributed one-third of the revenue through Salesforce's AgentForce platform. He also responds to Satya Nadella's critique about SaaS applications being little more than "crud databases," emphasizing that Salesforce's integrated platform provides a richer, more valuable AI solution. This conversation offers listeners a deep dive into the changing dynamics of AI in enterprise software and the strategic shifts businesses must make to keep pace with this technological evolution.
