AI Agents vs Enterprise Security: Why Salesforce’s Agentforce Vision Is Colliding With Cyber Reality + Video
The Shift From Cloud Hype to Agent Obsession For more than a decade, the word “cloud” defined the technology industry. It was the universal promise, the safe bet, the future everyone agreed on. That era is quietly ending. In its place, a new obsession is taking over boardrooms, keynotes, and product roadmaps: AI agents. These autonomous or semi-autonomous systems are being framed as the next great productivity revolution, capable of acting, reasoning, and executing tasks with minimal human input.

Yeah I’m not sure. But I would refine too much on Salesforce’s regrets until I see a properly-cited piece with a legitimate byline. (The one citation I do recall is Times of India, but that’s some sort of desk and itself inadequately cited.)

Agentic AI scams hit hard for me.
One of the big reasons I'm a diehard AI (hype) hater is because of what useless overhyped garbage Salesforce's Einstein AI has been ever since it was launched almost a decade ago.

*Accounting scams at major firms, spec. Microsoft/Google where the former is using OAI to pad Azure usage/the latter is using AI to pump the stock

The flop caused Marc Benioff's net worth to fall from $10.6 to $9.8 billion (Forbes), so I'm sure he's had to make sacrifices, too.
