Salesforce's Shift Towards AI Agents

Salesforce is embracing the integration of AI agents into their operations, which marks a significant shift in their approach to technology and sales. The company recognizes the potential of these agents to automate tasks traditionally performed by human sales representatives, potentially transforming the sales industry. This change raises questions regarding the future of Salesforce's business model, given their reliance on selling licenses for human sales forces.
