As a blog publisher with a significant LinkedIn following, I\u2019ve noticed engagement for Salesforce AI content is plummeting. These days, a solid DevOps piece gets way more traction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With Dreamforce 24 on the horizon, we\u2019re about to witness another leap in AI capabilities with <a href=\"http:\/\/wp.noc.tnxs.net\/index.php\/2024\/09\/12\/salesforce-unveils-agentforce\/\">Agentforce<\/a>. Expect flashier demos and even grander promises. But I believe Salesforce has made a critical mistake in Trailblazer engagement, leaving most admins, business analysts, developers, and the rest of the Salesforce workforce feeling left behind. Here\u2019s why:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-yoast-seo-table-of-contents yoast-table-of-contents\"><h2>Table of contents<\/h2><ul><li><a href=\"#h-the-economics-of-the-virtual-employee\" data-level=\"2\">The Economics of the Virtual Employee<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#h-the-paywall-problem\" data-level=\"2\">The Paywall Problem<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-economics-of-the-virtual-employee\">The Economics of the Virtual Employee<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let&#8217;s not forget the massive financial stakes in the Salesforce ecosystem. It\u2019s a major player in the commercial software world, raking in over $37 billion annually, with an estimated additional $57 billion in partner software and services revenue. Salesforce\u2019s stock recovery from early 2023 lows was primarily due to improved operational discipline, but Benioff\u2019s relentless AI push has certainly helped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, Salesforce\u2019s projected growth is still under 10% &#8211; hardly growth-stock territory anymore. The glory days of rapid expansion are behind us, and the laws of large numbers make it tough for a company like Salesforce to significantly exceed 10% growth. That is, unless you&#8217;re Microsoft Azure serving up AI inference services. As giants like NVIDIA, Microsoft, and Google are experiencing explosive growth building AI infrastructure, Salesforce must juice up its growth with AI or risk becoming just a data container.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Enter Agentforce. With over 40 billion customer conversations in the US currently handled by human operators, Benioff claims he can help automate those interactions with AI for just $2 per conversation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&#8217;s a significant leap forward, if it works. Salesforce isn\u2019t just peddling business automation software anymore; they\u2019re selling you the workforce to go with it. The ROI for replacing humans with AI becomes compelling. Now that\u2019s a growth company!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But here\u2019s the rub: most Trailblazers couldn\u2019t care less about keeping Wall Street happy. Even if they do, they struggle to relate to Salesforce\u2019s existential need to pivot dramatically with Agentforce. Trailblazers are thinking, \u201cWhat about all that Einstein stuff I learned at TrailblazerDX? Can&#8217;t I just figure out how to use Prompt Builder first? I don\u2019t appreciate having this stuff forced on me!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-paywall-problem\">The Paywall Problem<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The disconnect between an IT user community like the Trailblazers and the vendor\u2019s goals isn\u2019t new. But Salesforce has yanked the rug of self-learning out from under their end users with AI, and that&#8217;s where I think they\u2019ve seriously screwed up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a paying Enterprise org owner for over a decade, I&#8217;ve watched nearly every new Sales and Service Cloud feature simply appear as new capabilities in the Setup menu. Developer Orgs even gave access to advanced, extra-cost add-on features like Field Service. This allowed anyone with an Enterprise license to test and train themselves on new Salesforce features. The excitement of sharing this self-learning on LinkedIn, blogs, Dreamin&#8217; events, and Dreamforce helped create the vibrant Trailblazer community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But I can\u2019t access the key learning tool for Salesforce AI in my Enterprise org: Prompt Builder. I need to contact my AE, figure out my AI plan, and get the right license. It\u2019s a pain, with lots of open-ended questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There\u2019s incredible friction and cost involved in enabling the key AI learning tool in your Salesforce org. Very un-SaaS and un-Salesforce-like. As a result, almost zero Trailblazers coming to Dreamforce have Prompt Builder enabled in their org. That&#8217;s why Trailblazers don\u2019t care about AI and will feel overwhelmed and offended by a massive push for Agentforce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This approach not only hurts Trailblazers\u2019 feelings but also causes actual damage by stifling an active Salesforce AI community. Take an important aspect of LLM operations: logging and observability. If we\u2019re going to rely on prompts as key computational elements in future workflows, we need to use and iterate on their design after testing and feedback. Developing these systems requires new and different evaluation methods. But with so few end users discussing how they\u2019re using Salesforce AI, there are no community or entrepreneurial projects around prompt observability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In short, Salesforce\u2019s AI strategy is alienating its core community of Trailblazers, and that\u2019s a mistake they might come to regret.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-yoast-seo-related-links yoast-seo-related-links\">\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/wp.noc.tnxs.net\/index.php\/2021\/09\/24\/dreamforce-2021-steps-forward\/\">Dreamforce 2021 Steps Forward<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/wp.noc.tnxs.net\/index.php\/2022\/12\/19\/salesforce-devops-center-launches-with-high-expectations\/\">Salesforce DevOps Center Launches with High Expectations<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/wp.noc.tnxs.net\/index.php\/2023\/11\/13\/salesforce-trailblazers-jump-on-openai-gpts\/\">Salesforce Trailblazers Jump on OpenAI GPTs<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/wp.noc.tnxs.net\/index.php\/2024\/03\/06\/salesforce-delivers-on-ai-promises-with-einstein-1-studio-launch\/\">Salesforce Delivers on AI Promises with Einstein 1 Studio Launch<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/wp.noc.tnxs.net\/index.php\/2023\/08\/24\/autorabit-makes-andrew-davis-chief-product-officer\/\">AutoRABIT Makes Andrew Davis Chief Product Officer<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We\u2019ve been bombarded with AI hype from Marc Benioff and Salesforce for nearly two years now, and I can tell you that most Salesforce Trailblazers I talk to are fed&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":40087,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_uag_custom_page_level_css":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"post_series":[],"class_list":["post-40086","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-industry-news","entry","has-media"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.1 (Yoast SEO v28.4) -
