AI adoption is shifting from proof-of-concept to enterprise execution, and Google Cloud is helping organizations turn ambition into measurable outcomes through clarity, customization, and speed to value. In this episode, Riyaz Habibbhai, Director of Product Marketing at Google Cloud, outlines why simplicity, security, and strategic alignment are essential for scalable AI, and how platforms like AgentSpace enable companies to deploy and manage intelligent agents across workflows in one place. He explains how Google’s vertically integrated stack—from TPUs and GPUs to Vertex AI—gives customers the flexibility to combine proprietary and open-source tools, fitting AI into unique workflows rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all approach. You’ll hear how industries are seeing clear ROI in customer service and software development and why the real opportunity lies in customizing AI for specific business contexts, whether in logistics, manufacturing, or financial operations. Riyaz also shares why product marketers and business leaders need to actively use AI to communicate its value effectively, turning great products into clear, compelling stories that drive adoption. Tune in for a thoughtful, pragmatic look at how Google Cloud is helping companies move from AI experimentation to orchestration at scale, making AI a core business capability that delivers real impact. 00:00 Intro 02:00 The Power of Simplicity in Messaging 03:10 Google’s Platform Advantage for AI 05:00 From Chatbots to Agents: The Next Phase 06:50 Orchestrating AI Agents at Scale 08:00 Openness and Customization in AI Platforms 12:50 Real-World AI Use Cases in Customer Service 14:00 AI in Software Development Workflows 15:20 Why Customization Matters in AI Adoption 17:00 Shifts in AI Adoption Across Industries 19:50 Creativity vs. Data-Driven Decision Making 21:00 A Message to Fortune 500 Leaders on AI Subscribe now to Intel on YouTube: https://intel.ly/3IX1bN2 About Intel: Intel, the world leader in silicon innovation, develops technologies, products and initiatives to continually advance how people work and live.
