I find the generative AI prompts that show up in every post now on LInkedIn distracting, clumsy and not very helpful. I get that vendors are trying to figure out how to use this new technology to help users, but I would prefer it if there were a way to shut them off.

🤔 Would be actually helpful if LinkedIn used them as space for vendors and business pages to insert FAQs for the right persona with relevant target orgs and rolls. LinkedIn kinda already sits on that treasure trove to derive intent from, and suddenly they could sell ad space on organic content with hyper-relevant ads that are less a distraction and more continuation of discovery. Think for any of your colleague’s content, AI suggestions push to TechCrunch content that covers the post’s subjects or deeper dives across Ron’s writings.

Couldn't agree more! I'll add the new 'catch up' notifications to that as well.

Well said. Yesterday I was looking to turn off Google's AI search answers - can't do it. I'm super interested in AI, got my certifications etc, AND it's clear that running it indiscriminately is a huge waste of computational power/water/energy. Shame.

Agreed, the prompt suggestions are junk

I could not agree more. Also, I strongly dislike Google's search results now.

Ron Miller Agreed!! LinkedIn, can you enable a feature/preference that allows us to turn these on or off on our posts or for personal view?

Increasingly, companies are expected to take a leap of faith when it comes to generative AI without sufficient tools to measure software effectiveness and ROI. A lot CIOs aren't necessarily comfortable with this approach, but some folks are arguing they may not have a choice, but to take the leap, or risk being left behind. I wrote about this seeming paradox over the weekend. https://lnkd.in/e2-zsXVu

The Google-HubSpot rumor finally died on the vine last week, but right on its heels were reports the company is interested in acquiring Israeli security startup Wiz for $23 billion, per the Wall Street Journal. It's a deal with a similar price tag that makes a lot more sense for Google than HubSpot ever did.

I've certainly been curious about the rise in chatter about AI agents as the next step in AI, but there is actually a lack of consensus on what they are. I decided to dig into the AI agent concept and see if the hype matches the reality (hint: it doesn't...yet). https://lnkd.in/eXZVtuDi

When I attended the MIT Sloan CIO symposium in May, I noticed that CIO concerns about generative AI were pretty much the same as they were about the cloud almost 15 years earlier at the same event. But CIOs had learned a few things about command and control along the way.

🎹 "I know we hired you remote somehow, But that was then, and this is now..." 🎹 I have nothing against working in an office, but it does seem to me that some of the companies pushing a draconian, one-size-fits-all "RTO" (return-to-office) policy are saying more about themselves than they are about their employees... Here is my new song "The RTO Tango", recorded live at fwd:cloudsec. Your thoughts? https://lnkd.in/efNb8Dm2 #remote #rto

I had the pleasure of chatting with JPMorgan Chase Global CIO Lori Beer about the challenges she faces running a bank with a $17 billion IT budget and over 60,000 employees in her charge. As you can imagine, it takes a person with a keen mind to run such a massive operation, and there are lessons for companies of every size to learn from her experiences. https://lnkd.in/eGxQZSak

Sometimes you have mix things up a bit, and nothing says that more than this collaboration between Post Malone and Blake Shelton, two people I would never have put together. Keep your mind open. There's all kinds of unlikely possibilities out there.

Really excellent in-depth interview with Matt Garman, the new CEO at AWS. Jon Fortt does a great job here of digging into his background, his path at Amazon and his philosophy as a leader.
