We are headed towards the most epic run of IPOs of all time with SpaceX, Anthropic, and OpenAI all coming out within the next calendar year. What's gonna happen? Let's ask the man that took Twitter public right after this. I'm just back from ServiceNow's Knowledge 2026 in Las Vegas, and the conversations I had there are ones you're going to wanna hear. I sat down with their president and CPO, Amit Zavery, on the platform strategy powering enterprise AI, chief people and AI enablement officer Jackie Canney, and chief digital information officer Kelly Romack on what AI really means for the workforce, the technical leaders behind ServiceNow's NVIDIA partnership on shipping AI at scale, and Ulta Beauty on deploying ServiceNow's technology across 1,300 stores. If you wanna know where enterprise AI is actually headed, not the hype, but the real story, you can find these videos on my YouTube channel. Search Alex Kantrowitz on YouTube.
