Zoom Communications said it is expanding its enterprise agentic AI platform with workflow orchestration capabilities across Zoom Workplace, Zoom Phone, and Zoom CX. The aim is to help organizations automate tasks and trigger workflows based on interactions across its services. The update includes new capabilities such as custom and prebuilt AI agents that can be

For as long as most junior coders have been alive, tech vendors have talked up performance guarantees even though they neglect to detail just what happens if they don’t deliver as promised.  I have been begging vendors to knock off these deceptions for a long time — a very long time.  Last week, I briefly

Google on Wednesday introduced several new ways for Gemini AI assistant to create and edit content in Workspace apps such as Docs, Slides and Sheets.  The changes, said Julie Geller, principal research director at Info-Tech Research Group, represent “incremental improvements more than revolutionary features, but they address real workflow gaps.

The work focuses on

Virtual simulation data is driving the development of physical AI across corporate environments, led by initiatives like Ai2’s MolmoBot. Instructing hardware to interact with the real world has historically relied on highly expensive and manually-collected demonstrations. Technology providers building generalist manipulation agents typically frame extensive real-world training as the basis for these systems. For some
