@jpmorgan CEO Jamie Dimon's annual letter always a must read! Here are some highligths with an AI lens:

2,000+ AI use cases live at JPM already

"There will be a wide variety of AI models — open and closed, large and small — and no single tool will dominate."

"Cannot predict the ultimate winners and losers"

"Serious new risks from deepfakes to cybersecurity vulnerabilities"

"AI deployment may move faster than workforce adaptation" - the labor question nobody wants to answer

Clear we will live in multimodel world with multiple tools, no large enterprise will rely on one foundational model for everything, huge oppty for open source/open weight, and for founders to continue to build tooling, infra to deliver on the last mile in the enterprise

And cybersecurity will only get even more important

As Jamie says, still early to figure out who ultimate winners will be

This is some pretty great no-cost, high-quality AI training for technical or non-technical folks. Includes access to a @googlecloud sandbox so you're working with the real thing.

Ok Gemini 2.0 is insane.

People can't stop building and getting productivity superpowers.

10 wild examples.

[Richard Seroter @rseroter]

I just flipped through the ~20 pages of content in the new "State of Kubernetes Cost Optimization" report, and there's some very useful, tangible advice here.

Learn what high performers do, and find straightforward steps to follow their lead.

Getting more security functionality embedded inside existing tooling, with sensible defaults, cuts out needless toil. More to come for API management with advanced API security. This just dropped: API Abuse detection using ML trained on Google APIs. https://t.co/0EBenKQqmN

[Nils Swart @NLNils]

Security outcomes vs rote application of security frameworks. Good perspective from @googlecloud's CISO team on keeping focus on the "why". Also, NYC scaffolding is out of hand. Great analogy https://t.co/s7HMzcBPGV

@vijoy Also: better treat recognition :)

Pssst: Unmanaged APIs are hurting your productivity and security.

[Nils Swart @NLNils]

Google Apigee API Jam hands-on workshops in AMS (Feb 8) & BRU (Feb 15) coming up - build and secure APIs as a product. https://t.co/d3PPS7lWZR https://t.co/DzDdMrFDko

[Nils Swart @NLNils]

Tomorrow - 9am PT - Apigee API Hub to the rescue for managing previously unmanaged APIs. Across all gateways and environments. With @earth2marsh, Tim Burks & Cameron Peron. Overview + ask them anything #Apigee #GoogleCloud

[Carl Tanner @grassycarl]

Unmanaged APIs are hurting your productivity and security. Start managing your sprawl with API Hub https://t.co/NcCDI6ycDU

[Nils Swart @NLNils]

Versus API design/management/test ranked highest for developers. Still lots to do there in service of developers and the business, incl implicit API security.

[Lawrence Hecht @LawrenceHecht]

Pro-tip: developers don't care about multicloud or hybrid architecture -- it ranks 41 out of 57 topics @thenewstack polled about. In contrast, they rank app architecture #1

Self-defined "architects" &"IT management" rank multi/hybrid #1 & #3 respectively. https://t.co/CNKXQeSr4l

[Priyanka Vergadia @pvergadia]

APIs are a glue between legacy and modern services, they are the external interface to customers and partners and even our products! This makes managing APIs a key thing to think about in development cycle. Check out API management in the @googlecloud using Apigee!

[Nils Swart @NLNils]

Google Apigee showing up strong based on customer feedback. And making progress towards API Hub, API Security, and more.

[Google Cloud @googlecloud]

For the seventh consecutive report, @Gartner_inc has positioned Apigee as a Leader in the Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Full Life Cycle API Management.
