“The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there is in life to celebrate.” - Oprah Winfrey In addition to beautiful weather on Friday and Saturday, I got to enjoy great company while I toasted the following new speaking events for me (all are confirmed and in person): Tech Summit San Francisco 2024: the largest tech summit in San Francisco! (Keynote for me) GDS Artificial Intelligence Summit 2024: in Miami. (Expert Panelist Seat for me) AI Tech Stack World Series 2024: in Los Angeles! (Keynote for me) Boston and Minneapolis/Saint Paul was just the beginning. The #genai train moves to the WestCoast and travels South to Miami! This is going to be a great year for me. I am thankful for all the bosses, friends, and colleagues who supported my professional development. It’s true- nothing significant comes easy in this life. We all need people with vision and faith in our success! Peace. #artificialintelligence #techleaders #techcareers #thoughtleadership #digitaltransformation #enterprisearchitecture #businessarchitecture

If #AI is on your IT agenda for 2024, you won't want to miss Richard Timperlake's insightful piece in CXO Insight Middle East on how data streaming and data management are foundational to AI success. 🙏 Jeevan Thankappan https://shorturl.at/uxY26

Will there be a place for people in the job market? The most asked question when it comes to AI. So stay curious and listen to the latest episode of the WIRED Beyond AI podcast. Imagine factories and offices where humans and machines work together, with AI automating repetitive tasks and freeing us up for creative and strategic tasks. The nature of work is already changing. Unique human abilities such as solving complex problems even in physical work or social intelligence are likely to be sought after. The ability to adapt, learn and think critically will be a key differentiator. Tadahiro Kawada the President and Representative Director of leading Japanese robot manufacturers KAWADA ROBOTICS CORPORATION, who sees collaborative robots as the key to increasing human efficiency, and Yuri van Geest, initiator of the global Social Cohesion solution movement, will share their thoughts.

Great article with Richard Timperlake's thoughts on data streaming and AI going forward!

For the longest time, anticipating sales trends and managing inventory levels effectively was both an art and a science. Azita Martin’s team at NVIDIA are making strides in turning it, even more, into an exact science. By leveraging AI, businesses can spot nuances in sales trends and manage their stock better. This kind of intelligent forecasting helps retailers avoid lingering stock and save money. Learn more about Azita Martin in Prologis’ GROUNDBREAKERS Magazine:

Exciting times ahead! 🌌 Just finished watching "Foundation," and I'm convinced it's not just captivating sci-fi but a vision of our future. 🚀 Isaac Asimov's epic saga explores the power of predictive science and the quest for preserving knowledge amidst chaos. In an age where technology and data reign supreme, "Foundation" mirrors our own pursuit of understanding and controlling the future. Here's why I believe "Foundation" is the roadmap to our destiny: 🔮 Predictive Analytics: Like Hari Seldon's psychohistory, AI and data analytics today help us foresee trends, make informed decisions, and shape outcomes. 📚 Knowledge Preservation: In a world drowning in information, the need to safeguard knowledge, much like the Encyclopedia Galactica, is paramount. Digital libraries and archiving are our modern equivalents. 🌟 Visionaries: We're inspired by characters like Gaal Dornick and the brilliant minds who drive progress. Innovators shape our future by thinking beyond boundaries. 🌍 Global Collaboration: Just as the Galactic Empire united worlds, today's challenges call for global cooperation. Initiatives like the UN's Sustainable Development Goals are our modern "Foundation." Let's embrace the "Foundation" ethos, harness our technological potential, and collectively chart a course for a brighter future. 🌠 #Foundation #FutureOfHumanity #Innovation #Collaboration #foundation 🌏🔭🤝

Yesterday, I had the privilege of participating in an inspiring knowledge exchange at Xebia. As one of our core company values, Sharing Knowledge is deeply ingrained in our culture. Every month, our colleagues organize sessions with talks and workshops, actively sharing expertise on various topics. Here are the highlights from two captivating sessions I attended: Enhancing Team Collaboration with “Gefühlsmonster”: Led by Dominik Robellaz, this session focused on improving teamwork dynamics. He introduced the powerful tool box called “Gefühlsmonster”. These emotion cards provide a structured approach for discussing feelings, fostering better communication and understanding within teams. Prompt Engineering and Efficient Use of GenAI Tools: Katherine Munro, our second skilled instructor, delved into the world of GenAI tools. We explored the diverse range of available tools and learned how to use them effectively and securely. Creating prompts? Katherine shared essential tips to ensure accurate and impactful outputs. Her insights were invaluable for anyone navigating the landscape of AI-driven content generation. Both speakers delivered outstanding content, and I’m immensely grateful for their commitment to knowledge sharing. Let’s continue to learn, grow, and elevate our collective expertise! 🚀🙌 (Btw: This LinkedIn post was generated by GenAI, using my newly developed skills in prompt writing.) #KnowledgeSharing #Teamwork #GenAI #ContinuousLearning
