As I work with AI agents like Claude Code on new problems, I've noticed a fascinating pattern: Ask me to code a web page and the AI can make it appear like magic. Ask me to use the same AI to clean up a messy...
Ladies and gentlemen, we're just now entering the part of the year that so many of us look forward to for months and months: The holiday season is just around the corner. Celebrations, time with friends and family, great meals, the works — It's finally...
Snowflake recently released a suite of built-in functions that allow users to leverage AI functionality directly through SQL. These functions leverage powerful models (e.g. Anthropic, Meta, Arctic, etc) that are fully hosted inside Snowflake and can be used for a wide range of tasks. In this...
One of my kids recently dragged me back into fighting games. Some from my childhood (Street Fighter) and others completely new to me, like Guilty Gear. Every button press can mean the difference between glory and getting absolutely destroyed. It's been a blast. At InterWorks, we...
We're living in an era of unprecedented AI possibilities. Every day brings new demonstrations of what's theoretically achievable, from agentic AI systems that can manage complex workflows to natural language interfaces that make data accessible to anyone. Yet for most enterprises, there's a stark gap...
The conversation around AI governance has reached a critical inflection point. While many organizations still view governance as a necessary bureaucratic hurdle that slows down innovation, forward-thinking companies are discovering something counterintuitive: AI governance isn't just about managing risk—it's about accelerating growth. This shift in perspective...
Data quality has always been the foundation of successful analytics and AI initiatives, but it's also been one of the most resource-intensive challenges organizations face. We've all heard the statistics: Data scientists spend 80% of their time cleaning data, poor data quality costs organizations millions...
I’m seeing so many people in the data space say that companies need to get their data right before they can do AI (we may even be guilty at times). It is simply wrong. Look, I’m not saying data hygiene isn’t important, but telling people they...
Change management is hard. With AI changing our businesses, it’s also crucial. I’ve been thinking about change management lately through the lens of "Switch" by Chip and Dan Heath. If you haven't read it, the book uses a powerful metaphor: Our rational mind is the...
Salesforce just made headlines for cutting 4,000 customer service jobs, with CEO Marc Benioff proudly declaring he "needs less heads" now that AI agents handle half their support interactions. Microsoft chopped 15,000 roles this year. Meta cut 3,600. The message from Silicon Valley is clear:...
