@thekrislawson Yes CSMs make great candidates for FDE roles (as do technically-oriented PS consultants and sales engineers). But I’m not sure about last-man-standing. So long as humans are making B2B buying decisions, there will still be plenty of opportunity for good AEs.

CSMs may have the best chance to be last-man- standing in GTM roles. They have the highest domain expertise, with potential to be the FDE role each software company will deploy. @chuckganapathi What do you think?

@msuster Heartbreaking Mark. Thinking of you and your community. Thanks for the donation link.

I know & accept the news moved on from the Palisades Fire. 🔥 Update: Most of us are still in hotels or Airbnbs. Even if your house is standing there isn’t potable water or gas or electricity My home burned but didn’t burn down. This is my neighbor 🧵

What happened to me? Nothing. What happened to 1,200+ Israelis? They were murdered, mutilated & raped by terrorists. And a group of privileged, no-nothings on the US far left blamed the victims. This is the history of my ancestors. And that of my children if I don’t speak up. The world has paid no attention that Hamas = ISIS. They don’t call for the release of prisoners. They don’t understand that Israel is the ancestral home of my people for 5,000 years. The world doesn’t get that Israel is a democracy that allows Muslims to serve in govt, courts & military when the same is not true in reverse. Of the 9 million Israelis, > 2 million are not Jewish. That’s what happened. The “rot” is a stain on the mindless people who support terrorists over an imperfect democracy. And I will never be silent about this. To do so would disrespect my parents, my grandparents and every relative of mine who suffered through pogroms to give me the freedoms I enjoy in the United States. I have a blessing. But also the responsibility to speak up. I am not anti Muslim, anti Arab or anti Palestinian. I am pro all of them. I am anti, anti-Semite. And unconsciously the far left always slips into the “blame the Jews” mindset.

@TeamYouTube Forum says it’s fixed but I still can’t see it!

@chuckganapathi we've already confirmed that this issue has been fixed, you can check out this forum thread for more deets: goo.gle/46pN9fM thanks again for your patience

@TeamYouTube help! My Favorites playlist has gone missing across iOS and web apps. Can't find it in YT Studio either. Watch Later is visible though. I'm a YT Premium subscriber.

@msuster @A_C_Dean @timc I can vouch for that. @msuster has been amazingly level headed and helpful to portfolio co’s like us during this crisis.

@A_C_Dean @timc Except I didn’t push people to pull money out. So there’s that

Per suggestion from @timc We could easily write $1 million each & provide $300 million backstop to whatever PE firms commit. I feel confident we could agree in 24 hours & fund in 2 weeks. PE firms should reach out. Government officials should realize we’re here to help.

Before starting @tact_ai, I worked on a product called @salesforce #Chatter. This week Salesforce acquired @SlackHQ for $27B. Here is my quick take... linkedin.com/pulse/my-bigge…

@LiveBirch I ordered a mattress on 8/31. Been in “ready to ship” status for a week or more. No response to email. Help please!

Let’s make AI & voice assistants gender neutral!

How do you make sure voice assistants don't share sensitive data (the crazy story of Alexa sharing a family's conversation)? @chuckganapathi -- former svp products at Salesforce -- offers this suggestion to @jillianiles at #ForbesCIO -- keep some of that data off the cloud.

Voice AI is prevalent at home, not so much at work. Panelists at #ForbesCIO argue the next wave of adoption is in the car. Don’t forget how much time many workers spend driving every day...

‘The adoption of #VoiceAI in the enterprise is going to be different than in the home. Simply because of the logistics of open offices. The biggest opportunity will be in the car: deskless workers like saelspeople or field engineers’ @chuckganapathi #ForbesCIO #innovation

‘If I’m talking to an AI... tell me that I’m talking to an AI’ #googleduplex @chuckganapathi #trust #ai #voiceassistant #ForbesCIO

Founder of Tact.AI on voice assistants and bias: why do all voice assistants have to sound like a woman? Have a name of a woman? We chose a gender neutral name. "Let's not pretend it's a human." It's a robot. #ForbesCIO

Thank you inviting us Murray Grainger and John Waldron. And great to see you as always @CharlesForsgard!

Sharing is caring. 🎄

Saw an amazing email from one of our @tact_ai customers...what's better than spending more time with family! Happy Thanksgiving!
