Give everyone a quick introduction and tell everyone a bit about your time at Google prior to RubrikTopic 2 - You helped scale Rubrik from inception to a $5.6 billion IPO in 2024. What was the "aha moment" that made you leave that success to tackle the enterprise data analytics problem with WisdomAI?Topic 3 - Let's define the core problem. Organizations invest heavily in modern data platforms - Snowflake, Databricks, etc. - but there is the term "drowning in data but starving for insights." What's broken in the traditional BI stack that prevents business users from getting answers?Topic 4 - How do agentic AI and BI fit together? WisdomAI introduces the concept of "Knowledge Fabric" and agentic data insights. Break this down for us - how does this fundamentally differ from traditional dashboards and BI tools?Topic 5 - One of the biggest challenges with GenAI in enterprise settings is hallucination. You've emphasized that WisdomAI separates GenAI from answer generation. How does your approach tackle this critical trust issue?Topic 6 - Let's talk about data integration complexity. Your platform works with both structured and unstructured data - Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, but also Excel, PDFs, PowerPoints. How do you handle this "dirty" data reality that most enterprises face?Topic 6a - With so much data, how do most organizations get started? What’s a typical use case for adoption?FEEDBACK?Email: show at the cloudcast dot netBluesky: @cloudcastpod.bsky.socialTwitter/X: @cloudcastpodInstagram: @cloudcastpodTikTok: @cloudcastpod
