01 / recommendation

Makes sense. So we work with these customers to build custom models for them. But in most cases, a well-tuned RAG solution, text to SQL solution, with the data that they already have, with a large language model that's the frontier model, is usually the go-to scenario.

80% to 90% of all data is unstructured data. And because there weren't a lot of easy ways to process this, it was not necessarily seen as the most usable data, and it is now very usable.

figuring out which model, embedding model to use, whether you should use a multimodal embedding model or a text embedding model and so forth. So all of those are incredibly important, but increasingly, we're getting to a point where you can automate many of these things and then reduce the complexity so that a lot of what we used to require practitioners to do can be relatively automated at this point.

We'd go into an environment that we don't know, and then we'll go do a bunch of searches, and then we'll read to create some kind of knowledge.

08 / belief

In a world where these coding agents are such kind of capable platforms, how do you build new products? And in my mind, it is all about kind of starting with that first and then validating things quickly before you build a product in the first place.

Anywhere in AI, the differentiation is coming down. That means everyone is doing more and more things to create more and more value, which ultimately is great for the industry and great for consumers and customers.

I don't think that adoption of this technology requires human-like intelligence because Even for the specific things that these models and these applications do well, that is such high value that we're seeing huge adoption, as you all know, we're seeing huge adoption of AI already.

When we started the journey two and a half years ago or so, we heard loud and clear that our customers do not want to move their data out of the Snowflake security boundary.

12 / recommendation

If you go build an agent, the person who asks the question can only get the answer that they're eligible to see and nothing else. This is super obvious and important, but because we have kind of these types of very granular access controls from the ground up as part of the core data platform.

13 / recommendation

Starting with the large language models makes a lot of sense. And then over time, as you have more and more data and if you have specific needs, if you have either specific needs because of data or because of cost or throughput, that's when specialized models come into picture.

Coding agents, I think, as you called out, have passed this threshold where because they're a lot more capable, a lot more people are using them.

You also have different agent platforms that are being used. So for instance, if I'm using Salesforce to manage all of my CRM, maybe I'm going to go build my sales-related experiences with an agent there, but I still want that agent to talk to this other agent I'm building for something else.

Yeah, but plus, as a data platform company, I will call out the importance of ultimately all of these capabilities come down to, for any given company, the differentiation is their data.
