Hot on the heels of the ServiceNow® Generative AI Controller and Now Assist for Search product announcements, I’m excited to announce our latest generative AI product: Now Assist for Virtual Agent. It builds on ServiceNow’s strategy to embed generative AI across the Now Platform® by helping to enable truly conversational self-service experiences.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing the business landscape, offering immense potential to transform organizations into exponential enterprises. ServiceNow, recognized as the "engine of the enterprise," envisions a future of work where AI-powered solutions automate processes, enhance decision-making, and extract valuable insights from data.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the current buzz word in IT with AI promoted as the magic ingredient for improving business performance across a wide range of areas. But how, specifically, does AI enhance Network Management? The idea that computers can manage themselves is nothing new.

The rollout of new technology can come with hesitation and even fear, and generative AI is no different. The New York Times in February 2023 dubbed the popularity of ChatGPT a “phenomenon” that started an AI arms race – one that wasn’t exactly welcomed by news writers, marketing agencies, or business leaders.

SAPPHIRE 2023 marked another significant milestone, leaving a lasting impression in the books. Returning to the Orlando Convention Center, the event had that ‘SAP energy’ we’re used to as thousands of like minded individuals congregated to exchange experiences, delve into SAP's upcoming plans, and foster valuable connections. Going beyond the walls of the convention center, SAPPHIRE extended its reach into the surrounding areas of Orlando.

Generative artificial intelligence (GAI) is undoubtedly one of the biggest trends across industries in 2023. In a recent survey, almost two-thirds of executives believe generative AI will have a high or extremely high impact on their organization in the next three to five years. Executives anticipate spending the next 6–12 months focused on increasing their understanding of how generative AI works, evaluating internal capabilities, and investing in generative AI tools.
