A8. Baby steps. Don’t start with the ‘family jewels’ as your first deployment. Your people need to build up an understanding of applicability, alignment and steering LLMs which will take time. #eWEEKchat.
A6. Context matters. A lot. Use patterns like Retrieval Augmented Generation to safely inject enterprise context into your LLMs. #eWEEKchat.
A7. Think about a future government audit of your AI-driven decisions; would they hold up for privacy and fairness? #eWEEKchat
A4. Work on the use cases outside in, build up competency, think long term. Having a robust AI strategy for the long term is going to be more valuable than any short term hype cycle considerations. #eWEEKchat
A3. All of the above. Data & analytics have two decades of what good governance looks like, the entire generative AI stack needs the same treatment, from collecting and managing the data to audit and traceability of outcomes. #eWEEKchat
A2: Many of our existing customers with mature AI/ML programs are accelerating their efforts to include genAI. Their investments in AI are validated and now suddenly “mainstream” #eWEEKchat
A1. It has already disrupted as mindshare, now whether it lives up to its hype is up to us. No pressure. #eWeekchat
Hi everyone, Ram Venkatesh CTO @ Cloudera here. On with @JamesMaguire on Generative AI with #eWEEKchat
If you are not multicloud, you are all-in, choose wisely #eweekchat crowdchat.net/s/16a8b
A8: Portability will get easier. Data egress costs will come down (come on lets be bold, we have the Easy Button). Multicloud will get simpler as a consequence. #eweekchat crowdchat.net/s/16a84
Autonomy is like entropy, there is only one direction in reality, central teams need to accept this and plan for it. More governance, less mandates #eweekchat crowdchat.net/s/46a7x
A5 Establish the right metrics so you can tell if multicloud is the right option for your company, and if your implementation is actually yielding the results you are after. #eweekchat crowdchat.net/s/96a72
A5 @bernardgolden great point. Don't use least common denominator thinking to stay "cloud neutral", its about "cloud being "cloud leveraged" to help your business get the best outcome #eweekchat crowdchat.net/s/76a6t
If your use cases warrant multicloud, embrace it. Optimize for the business outcome rather than platform feature / function type tradeoffs. #eweekchat crowdchat.net/s/86a6l
A3 This is where open really helps IMO. Open APIs, Open protocols and formats can really help drive consistency cleanly #eweekchat crowdchat.net/s/46a5s
A3 Multicloud does not mean least common denominator, providing a consistent user experience while taking advantage of the underlying cloud provider's capabilities is the balancing act. #eweekchat crowdchat.net/s/16a5q
A2: One topic that has been mentioned so far - regulatory compliance. Customers sometimes have to consider alternative clouds to stay compliant with emerging regulations regarding data governance. For them multicloud is existential. #eweekchat crowdchat.net/s/96a5m
A2: Its' customer needs. Optionality is underrated except when you need it. With evolving cost and risk concerns, customers are looking for solutions that best fit their needs, be it on another cloud than their primary choice or even onprem. #eweekchat crowdchat.net/s/36a58
