At SwampUP, Alan Shimel led an insightful discussion with Justin Boitano of NVIDIA, Rahul Tripathi of ServiceNow, and Shlomi Ben Haim, CEO of JFrog, on the journey from AI experimentation to real transformation. The panel highlighted that AI’s true value goes beyond the models themselves. Its strength comes from the ecosystem by bringing together infrastructure, data workflows, and the software supply chain to generate actionable intelligence. By automating repetitive work, AI empowers teams to focus on high-impact initiatives and achieve up to 10x velocity without replacing human creativity. NVIDIA’s verdict was clear: adoption is moving faster than most realize. Enterprises that embrace accelerated computing and agentic systems today will be the ones to redefine their industries tomorrow. ▶️ Watch the full discussion here: https://lnkd.in/dxcBuK6c #AI #EnterpriseAI #AITransformation #NVIDIA
