Data, acceleration, and the future of intelligence: Lessons from 25 core books (and links to 114 other books) about AI, technology abstraction, and consciousness.
Building the Future: Enabling Real-Time Enterprises with Intelligent Data Platforms
In today’s digital-first economy, making consequential decisions in real-time is no longer a competitive edge; it is essential for growth and survival.
How Agentic AI Elevates Automation into Enterprise Strategy

Automating isolated tasks in pockets does not transform the way work gets done. Unfortunately, this is the reality for many organizations. McKinsey reports that 78 percent of companies now use generative AI in at least one function, up from 55 percent a year earlier
Reimagining data platforms with agentic AI

Imagine a data platform that manages itself. This is no longer a futuristic concept – it’s today’s reality, thanks to agentic AI
The era of high-code development has arrived. Alibaba Cloud’s Bailian aims to integrate Agents into real business operations.

Most of the low – code Agent platforms that have emerged in the past two years rely on the “pre – defined orchestration” logic. They are suitable for simple Q&A or process automation, but often struggle when it comes to cross – system calls, long – chain tasks, or when multiple rounds of reflection and autonomous decision – making are required.
