Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff emphasizes the integral role of AI program Agentforce in the company's success
In a recent interview with CNBC's Jim Cramer, Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff highlighted the centrality of the company's AI program, Agentforce, to its business operations. Benioff stated that Agentforce is an essential component of Salesforce, explaining, 'It is the core of every product we make now, it is the platform.'
The platform has evolved significantly since its introduction over a year ago, enabling companies to utilize autonomous bots for task automation and enhance efficiency. Benioff noted that Agentforce has been deployed in 'tens of thousands of deployments, and those customers are all ready to get to another level of execution.'
Despite Salesforce's stock decline this year due to investor expectations of faster revenue growth, Benioff remains confident in the company's AI strategy. He refuted the notion that AI threatens enterprise software companies, arguing that it presents an opportunity for transformation. Benioff cited major Salesforce customers like Dell, Williams-Sonoma, and PepsiCo as examples of companies leveraging AI to become 'new agentic enterprises.'
The interview also included a discussion on the CNBC Investing Club, where investors can follow Jim Cramer's market insights. The club's charitable trust owns shares of Salesforce, and Cramer encourages questions and engagement from investors.
