In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I discuss how one of the Big Four consultancies is using Microsoft technology to simplify AI scaling for customers worldwide. Highlights 00:10 - Some big partner news today: KPMG and Microsoft are expanding their existing partnership to help firms scale agentic AI initiatives. Another example of how far things have progressed in a few short years, as companies become increasingly AI-mature and start to incorporate these transformational technologies across their businesses. 00:34 - Within the new agreement, KPMG will leverage Microsoft 365 Agent to enhance its trusted AI framework in order to help KPMG clients deliver agentic AI across their enterprises, while KPMG member firms will also be deploying Microsoft 365 Copilot on a global scale, totaling over 267,000 users. 01:02 - So, a massive rollout of Copilot there. But the big story here is how KPMG is further integrating, this time from an agentic AI stance, Microsoft technology into its client service delivery platforms. What this means is that it's making it easier for KPMG clients to scale AI because of the consistency this provides.
