This Week in Enterprise:

At Next, Google makes a smarter case for leading the generative AI era

With Google’s Cloud Next ’24 conference this past week in Las Vegas now in the books, it looks like the search giant is finally poised to leverage its longtime work in artificial intelligence and its serious technical infrastructure to provide a boost to its third-place cloud computing unit.

The Mandalay Bay conference center hosted some 30,000 people and the energy, and crowds, were apparent. But even Google executives conceded it’s still very early for generative AI in the enterprise, not just for Google for its rivals as well, so it’s not yet certain how much of a boost it will provide.

At the same time, copyright issues loom larger for AI model makers such as OpenAI, Google and Meta Platforms, as a proposed bill would force them to disclose that.

There was plenty of action this week in infrastructure as well, as TSMC got big bucks from the CHIPS Act for fabs in the U.S. The PC market (and TSMC) also bounced back thanks to AI. Intel doubled down on AI with new Gaudi 3 and other chips, and Apple’s M4 reportedly will offer serious AI capabilities.

On the cybersecurity front, CISA issued serious warnings about Microsoft and Sisense cyberattacks, and Apple flags iPhones attacks. Meanwhile, cyber consolidation continues as Wiz bought Gem Security and Zscaler acquired Airgap Networks. Cohesity and Cyera also reeled in big fundings.
