The rise of AI agents is rapidly transforming the business landscape, with companies like IBM and Oracle leading the charge in integrating these intelligent tools into the workforce. IBM kicked off its annual Think conference in Boston, highlighting generative AI and agentic AI tools as central themes. CEO Arvind Krishna noted the expectation of a billion new applications being built using generative AI, emphasizing the need to address the challenges of AI deployment, execution, and return on investment. IBM is touting its watsonx enterprise AI platform and rolling out new features, many designed to tame the AI’s deployment, execution, and ROI issues.
IBM and Oracle are expanding their partnership to bring IBM's watsonx, a portfolio of AI products, to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). This collaboration aims to create a new era of multi-agentic, AI-driven productivity and efficiency across enterprises. Greg Pavlik, executive vice president at Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, emphasized the importance of seamless AI integration across businesses, stating that the expanded partnership will provide customers with new ways to transform their operations using AI. IBM is making its watsonx Orchestrate AI agent offerings available on OCI in July.
Furthermore, the integration of AI agents is expected to significantly impact human resources. Salesforce research indicates that HR leaders are planning to redeploy a quarter of their workforce to focus on agentic AI-related tasks, as AI agent adoption is projected to grow by 327% by 2027. This shift highlights the increasing importance of digital labor and the need for reskilling employees to adapt to the changing demands of the modern workforce. 81% of HR chiefs plan to reskill their employees for better job opportunities in the digital labor era.
