“You ask yourself the question — where are the different runners three steps into a 10K race? Does it really matter? The point is, you’re three steps in, and it’s a 10K race.”
- The exec explained that the new feature will not function as a physical center but rather as a “program.” He added that RyanAir, Lonely Planet, Highspot, and Twilio have already jumped on board.
- Selipsky sees an optimistic future for artificial intelligence, calling it “the next wave of innovation in the cloud.” According to him, it will be “the next big thing” that pushes clients to want to be in the cloud.

- The multinational tech giant – Microsoft – distributed $10 billion into OpenAI several months ago. This has been the third investment into the AI startup, with the previous made in 2019 and 2021.
