Today’s episode of America’s greatest reality series—yes, I’m talking about Elon Musk’s falling-out with President Donald Trump—was a barn burner.

Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff was upset. Last fall, one of his technical teams told large Salesforce customers that using Agentforce, the software firm’s new artificial intelligence for automating customer service and other functions, would require extensive planning. The product information the Salesforce team shared with those customers acknowledged the complexity of making the AI perform well. That message contradicted Benioff, a charismatic salesman who had been telling customers that using... Read more ›

September is on track for six venture-backed tech listings, the most since November 2021. The rising number of IPOs means venture funds can start returning more cash to the limited partners that back them, relieving one of the strains that had held back VC fundraising over the last few years.

On paper, Informatica, a Redwood City-based cloud software firm with 5,000 white collar employees, is exactly the type of company that should be gung-ho to pay up and buy Office 365 Copilot, the version of Microsoft’s flagship software that comes with artificial intelligence features.
