A leader in the data economy explains how we arrived at AI-and how we can navigate its future.
In The Datapreneurs, Bob Muglia helps us understand how innovation in data and information technology have led us to AI-and how this technology must shape our future. The long-time Microsoft executive, former CEO of Snowflake, and current tech investor maps the evolution of the modern data stack and how it has helped build today’s economy and society. And he explains how humanity must create a new social contract for the Artificial General Intelligence (AGI)-autonomous machines intelligent as people-that he expects to arrive in less than a decade. Muglia details his personal experience in the foundational years of computing and data analytics, including with Bill Gates and Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI, the creator of ChatGPT, and others that are not household names—yet.
Snowflake’s technology has evolved to the point where it can now manage all kinds of information, including unstructured data like video, audio, images, and more. It can handle all the core tasks that business analysts, data engineers, and data scientists require. Those high-end scientists and analysts no longer need to pull data out of Snowflake to get their work done. The company automates the loading of streaming data, and its developer environment natively supports applications written in Python, the programming language favored by data scientists.
By moving data to the cloud and into Snowflake, customers could access unlimited computing and storage resources, support unlimited concurrent users, and pay only for the services they use. Customers no longer needed to set up, provision, and manage their own data centers.
The modern data stack enables organizations and individuals to store, organize, and analyze all kinds of data, helping users understand how the world works to optimize their strategies and operations to quickly adapt to changing conditions and predict what will likely happen next. Snowflake’s data cloud has become an essential piece of the modern data stack for many companies. Snowflake also works closely with partners across the industry that provide products for data loading, business intelligence, data visualization, and analytics.
