In this blog, a senior solutions architect at Volvo Group talks about their cloud transformation journey. They explain how they used #serverless architecture can enhance speed, scalability, and cost-efficiency. Read the latest blog post by Edouard Ma Poon, Senior Solutions Architect, about the cloud transformation journey. ☛ "Serverless is largely driven by Event Driven Architecture. The focus of your architecture concentrates on the flow of data and events. " ☛ "If your platform is based on a Service Oriented Architecture, you need to review if and how you could transform your services to serverless." ☛ "With serverless, as Julian Woods, a serverless advocate at AWS, puts it, “you build in the cloud and not just on the cloud” to take advantage of the reliability, scalability, and security of the cloud." #serverless #cloud #cloudtransformation #serverlesscloud https://lnkd.in/gAXeNUpC

Microsoft will invest 4 billion euros in cloud and AI infrastructure and train 1 million people by 2027 + support 2500 AI startups. Guess what. Will it happen in Slovakia? No... Congratulation France. In Slovakia, we believe that earth is flat and we are trying to invent new ways how to uselessly spend tax-payers money. Ministerstvo investícií, regionálneho rozvoja a informatizácie SR - what have you done today to bring such investment to Slovakia? #microsoft #ai #startups #MIRRI

I'm not only impressed with the pace of innovation and adoption of #GenAI but also the scale of adoption: For instance, at Orange, more than forty use cases are in the development phase, and around ten have already been implemented within business teams, and this is just the beginning. One of the use cases at Orange: For departments in charge of customer relations, a tool has been developed to rewrite the content of online Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) for customers. It enables them to adapt the more than 30,000 questions/answers to the brand's new, warmer and more empathetic tone, a rewrite that would have been impossible without the support of generative AI. https://lnkd.in/gQke_38C

Next week, I will have the honor of discussing what companies need to do to build AI and Generative AI capabilities at their core, in front of C-level executives. Drawing from my experience as the Chief Digital Officer at Michelin and now at Microsoft, leading Industry AI Solutions, I’ve summarized the key elements that every company should focus on to remain relevant for the future. The AI and GenAI Transformation Factory provides a robust framework for integrating technology with business units, various functions, and regions/countries. By doing so, companies can effectively activate a wide range of AI capabilities. Feel free to ask for further elaboration if you’re interested and did I miss something? #AI #GenerativeAI #DigitalTransformation #IndustryAI #Leadership

ChatGPT 4o has significantly enhanced its capabilities in fiscalization topics! As you may already know, we have developed and deployed specialized fiscal solutions GPTs as part of the official GPT store, making them freely accessible to everyone. This initiative has resulted in the creation of ChatGPT models tailored to fiscal topics in 27 countries, covering legal, technical, and process-related aspects. With the latest version of ChatGPT 4o, the accuracy and ability of these AI models to provide correct answers, even to complex questions, is truly remarkable. even SHOCKINGLY REMARKABLE ! To ensure that these AI models always have the most up-to-date information, we have incorporated them into our regular maintenance procedures. While consulting workshops remain valuable, I recommend trying out the fiscal solutions GPTs first — it's a powerful resource that can provide reliable answers efficiently :-) and is completely free :-)
