AI agents will fundamentally change the value of content and the way people work with data and files, said Aaron Levie, CEO of Box, during a Wednesday webcast that was part of the company’s Content+AI Virtual Summit.

The traditional approach to managing content is fundamentally changing with AI, Levie said.

Over the last two decades, Box has changed its focus from file storage to extracting value from content in those files. The company provides collaborative tools and integrates popular apps for users to work with those files and data.

Extracting value from the content in stored files will take on new meaning with AI. The amount of unstructured data within files has grown at an exponential pace over the last few decades, but most of the data is underutilized, Levie said.

AI will provide instant answers from unstructured data, fundamentally changing the value of content stored in systems. It will also automate workflows and introduce an AI-first culture, Levie said.

“We have the opportunity to drive an incredible amount of new experiences,” Levie said. “We need a better and modern way to manage information.”

Box has kept up with various stages in AI evolution, with integration of AI models and more recently AI agents. As AI advances, the vendor is allowing its clients to do more advanced data extraction, multi-step reasoning, and more complex task planning.

“We didn’t think about AI as an add-on capability on the side,” but as central to the Box platform, Levie said.

For example, the Box interface has an agent that can answer queries and work with content within specific folders. It provides multimedia responses to queries, linking to videos, charts, and citations within files stored in the system.

The company on Wednesday launched a series of new AI agents that serve different objectives, including a “Search” agent for basic results from files and a “Deep Research” agent that digs deeper into information for more comprehensive answers.

The Deep Research agent works with large volumes of enterprise content in files, summarizes findings, and provides links to relevant files.

Box is also integrating a new AI agent for Microsoft 365 Copilot, allowing users of Word, PowerPoint, and other software to work with data stored in Box systems.

In the coming years, Microsoft plans to integrate thousands of agents from third parties such as Box and Adobe to improve user productivity.

Many of Box’s competitors are also offering their own AI technology, though agent-to-agent integrations between vendors are growing.

Forrester Research has a roadmap for broad adoption of various agent technologies in coming years. It shows helper-style agents like the ones announced by Box taking off gradually in 2026.

Helper-style AI agents will see broad adoption by next year, according to Forrester. More complex agents capable of executive decision-making will take a little longer.

But as AI agents advance to solving problems and making executive decisions, things will get more complex, said Craig Le Clair, vice president and principal analyst at Forrester.

There’s a huge gap between vendors of AI agents and the actual adoption profile of users and buyers, Le Clair said. “The gap that exists there is astounding,” he said.

Companies are advancing with AI agents, but it’s much more complex when it comes to sophisticated solvers and managing agents, Le Clair said.

“If you’re in a financial institution, you’ve built all these layers of process, control, risk mitigation, and reporting around the technology underneath. And you don’t change that easily, because it takes legal, compliance, meetings, security. It takes longer to change the processes that sit above the technology,” Le Clair said.

Saudi Arabia unveiled a series of blockbuster AI partnerships with US chip makers, cloud infrastructure providers, and software developers this week, signaling its ambition to become a global AI hub.

Leveraging its $940 billion Public Investment Fund (PIF) and strategic location, Saudi Arabia is forming partnerships to create sovereign AI infrastructure including advanced data centers and Arabic large language models. Google, Oracle, and Salesforce are deepening AI and cloud commitments in Saudi Arabia that will support Vision 2030, a 15-year program to diversify the country’s economy.

Within that, the $100 billion Project Transcendence aims to put the kingdom among the top 15 countries in AI by 2030.

The deals announced during this week’s US-Saudi investment summit in Riyadh include a $20 billion commitment from Saudi firm DataVolt for AI data centers and energy infrastructure in the US and an $80 billion joint investment by Google, DataVolt, Oracle, Salesforce, AMD, and Uber in technologies across both nations, according to a White House fact sheet

The Riyadh summit, attended by US President Donald Trump and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, drew tech luminaries including Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and AMD CEO Lisa Su.

AI factories

Humain, an AI company backed by PIF, the Saudi sovereign wealth fund, was at the center of much of the deal-making. Nvidia said it will supply Humain with hundreds of thousands of its most advanced GPUs over the next five years with which the company will build “AI factories” with a capacity of up to 500 megawatts. The first of those will contain 18,000 Grace Blackwell GB300 systems, it said.

AMD announced a five-year, $10 billion collaboration with Humain to deploy up to 500 megawatts of AI compute in Saudi Arabia and the US, aiming to deploy “multi-exaflop capacity by early 2026.”

AWS, too, is expanding its data centers in Saudi Arabia to bolster Humain’s cloud infrastructure.

Saudi Arabia has abundant oil and gas to power those data centers, and is growing its renewable energy resources with the goal of supplying 50% of the country’s power by 2030.

“Commercial electricity rates, nearly 50% lower than in the US, offer potential cost savings for AI model training, though high local hosting costs due to land, talent, and infrastructure limit total savings,” said Eric Samuel, Associate Director at IDC.

Located near Middle Eastern population centers and fiber optic cables to Asia, these data centers will offer enterprises low-latency cloud computing for real-time AI applications.

Late is great

There’s an advantage to being a relative latecomer to the technology industry, said Eric Samuel, associate director, research at IDC. “Saudi Arabia’s greenfield tech landscape offers a unique opportunity for rapid, ground-up AI integration, unburdened by legacy systems,” he said.

Arun Chandrasekaran, distinguished VP analyst at Gartner, said the investments signify Saudi Arabia’s “ambition to become a central hub for AI development, rivaling established tech centers in the US and China.”

Other analysts weighed in on Saudi Arabia’s goals. Neil Shah, vice president research at Counterpoint Research, said the push could make it the next “oil hub” for AI, serving both local and global needs, while Amandeep Singh, practice director at QKS Group, said, “This isn’t just about money. It’s a strategic play to become a long-term AI power and a neutral meeting point for global AI.”

Despite the vast political and financial resources in play, though, the analysts forecast challenges ahead when it comes to attracting top talent, reducing reliance on Western chips, and building data governance trust.

While Saudi Arabia is a lucrative new market for companies such as Nvidia and AWS, “They must navigate questions of control and compliance,” said QKS Group’s Singh. Aligning with Saudi Arabia’s push for digital sovereignty requires a delicate balance between Western regulations, export restrictions, and the Kingdom’s drive for independence.

Political risks

IDC’s Samuel noted that initiatives like Humain can foster trust and alignment with national priorities, but added, “With the right oversight and governance, political risks can be managed and long-term AI development secured.”

Building a real AI power bloc in the Middle East is still a tough climb, the analysts said.

“Saudi Arabia’s ambition needs more than just cash to turn into real influence in the region,” said Singh. “They need shared tech foundations, common AI standards across countries, and everyone to agree on policies — and we’re not quite there yet.”

Making strong partnerships with other companies and countries will be key for Saudi Arabia to turn its big investments into lasting global influence, the analysts said, making sure its AI plans become more than just a showpiece.

Turning Saudi Arabia’s AI ambition into real regional power won’t be easy. “Money alone won’t get you there — you need shared foundations, aligned policies, and buy-in from the neighborhood,” said Singh.

Microsoft faces more legal action in the UK, this time from a barrister named Alexander Wolfson who issued an opt-out class action claim this week alleging that public or private organizations in the UK that purchased certain software licenses (including for Microsoft Office and Windows) since October 1, 2015, were overcharged due to Microsoft’s market practices.

Wolfson, who retained the services of Stewarts LLP, a litigation-only law firm, said in a release issued on Wednesday, “Microsoft’s actions have had a significant and far-reaching impact on UK consumers, businesses, and public bodies.”

This claim, he said, “seeks to hold Microsoft to account and to secure compensation for the many affected members of the class. With billions of pounds potentially at stake, this case is about ensuring fairness in the digital marketplace and ensuring even the largest tech companies play by the rules.”

“Microsoft’s conduct has had a profound and costly impact on millions of individuals and private and public sector organizations that rely on its software for daily business operations,” said Kate Pollock, the head of competition litigation at Stewarts. “We believe that Microsoft abused its market dominance by imposing restrictive licensing practices that effectively shut down competition and inflated prices.”

Highlights an industry-wide issue

An FAQ created by the plaintiff explained the format of the suit: “Opt-out collective proceedings are a special form of court proceedings that enable a class representative to bring a claim on behalf of a defined class of persons in the UK affected by an infringement of competition law,” it said. “This means that if your organization fits within the class definition you will automatically be included in the claim and will be bound by any judgment or settlement unless you choose to opt-out of the proceedings.”

Ellora MacPherson, managing director and chief investment officer at Harbour, which has agreed to fund the case, described the suit as “likely to be one of the largest the UK has seen and is an example of how big corporate entities can be held to account.”

Forrester Senior Analyst Dario Maisto pointed out Wednesday via email, “this is not the first time that Microsoft gets attention for allegedly unfair commercial practices. Microsoft was also sued in the UK in 2024 over allegations that it overcharged Windows Server customers to use the software on competing cloud platforms.”

He added, “the Cloud Infrastructure Providers in Europe organization (CISPE) took a similar action on Microsoft’s licensing practices when its cloud computing competitors filed a complaint against Microsoft with the European Commission.”

According to Maisto, “while it is totally understandable why law firms and competitors keep engaging in such lawsuits against Microsoft, we should finally admit that these are all symptoms of a bigger issue, that is, people and organizations’ extreme [dependence] on third-party proprietary solutions and a fundamental lack of alternative standards.”

This is, he said, the problem that we as an IT industry need to solve, as we cannot keep relying on specific lawsuits to address — one at a time — all the problems of what we could start to define now as a much broader market disfunction.” 

Computerworld reached out to Microsoft for a comment but at press time had not received a response.

A report that crossed my desk today should be of interest to any enterprise seeking to get bigger benefits from their existing training budgets: it suggests that Apple’s soon-to-be growing family of visionOS devices really can boost training.

Researchers evaluated a 12-week electrical contracting certification program delivered at a facility in New Jersey. During the course, instructors used both traditional classroom and hands-on teaching alongside three modules developed by BILT for Apple Vision Pro.

The combination delivered impressive results, according to the report.

Spatial reality is good for learning

Apparently spatial computing can help with training with measurable results:

Students using the Apple devices completed the course almost 24% faster than classes using traditional curriculum alone.

76% of the class tracked at least three weeks ahead of schedule, while 88% were 2.5 weeks ahead.

93% of students said they felt ready to apply their new skills in the field. 

Student engagement increased by 50%; learners liked that immersive content allowed them to practice hands-on without risking damage, injury, or delay. 

The retention of knowledge also increased. Preliminary analysis suggests that observed retention of course material directly supplemented with spatial learning improved from 30%, including vocabulary and terminology retention, to 90% compared to cohorts.

In every measured metric, students completed learning tasks faster using visionOS than they did without, which gave instructors considerable additional class teaching time.

These should all be seen as significant outcomes. They suggest that using Apple’s spatial reality devices can and do deliver big improvements in training. You can watch a short overview of the results here.

Apple and the blending of reality

It also looks as if this kind of XR training can help students eliminate some errors completely. The study suggests that reverse polarity and sheathing errors were eliminated entirely (from 18% and 20% respectively, to 0%), while some wiring errors were reduced by 90%. It clearly makes a huge difference to some learners to interact with things in the virtual world while learning — “visual learners” are a thing; we knew it, and the tech leans deep into serving that need effectively. 

“BILT for Apple Vision Pro catapults students over the steep learning curve,” said BILT CEO Nate Henderson. “The study underscores how powerful immersive training can be for a new generation of workers.”

Of course, it should be considered that BILT’s report would make claims of this kind, given that delivering learning experiences in extended reality is part of what the company is all about. But the data — gathered through a range of metrics — aligns with what we’ve heard before.

We are seeing ever more illustrations of this kind of use, including Endo’s Spatial Computing Injection Simulator introduced last month, CAE’s Vision Pro-based pilot training solution, or the way the tools are used at Dassault Systèmes. Just as surgeons have already experimented with using VisionPro during surgery to collaborate with experts remotely to help handle challenging cases, BILT notes the potential for field service and other engineers to call in help with their own complex tasks.  

We do need some education

But when it comes to training, the big takeaway seems to be that use of visionOS helps make sure students get it right first time, which can boost confidence and make them more likely to get something right again. 

“Project one has so many fundamentals,” said Electrical Instructor, Kristian Desjardin. “Students seeing BILT on the Apple Vision Pro set the fundamentals up correctly from the beginning. If they mount their boxes right the first time, they’re going to mount right the second time. If they put their sheathing in the first time, it’s not going to take them until the third time. And that’s what we saw in projects 1-10.”

The instructors also claimed that they got their students through their learning grades far faster than they had before.

Can this work for everyone? It’s wise to maintain a certain incredulity when you experience stories of this kind, but the indication is that there are some learning tasks that really benefit from visionOS devices — and that using them may help people learn faster and more effectively. The inference has to be that such tools might yet enable swift skills education on a local, national, or even international level, which could help resolve some strategic skill gaps.

Microsoft (Nasdaq:MSFT) on Tuesday said it is laying off 3% of its employees, which equals an estimated 6,000 positions.

This move will reportedly include a cut in the number of middle managers in the company, though it will affect “all levels, teams, and geographies,” Microsoft told CNBC, which reported that the company is “aiming to reduce management layers.” It reported that the current layoffs are not tied to performance, unlike the round of layoffs in January.

A second goal, according to another report, is to increase the ratio of coders versus non-coders on projects.

While no official announcement about the layoffs was issued, a Microsoft spokesperson told Computerworld, “we continue to implement organizational changes necessary to best position the company for success in a dynamic marketplace.”

Patrick Moorhead, founder and chief analyst at Moor Insights & Strategy, said, “technology companies like Microsoft are rebalancing workforces to align with AI delivery and their internal use of AI tools. Delivering AI tools requires different developer and data skillsets, and Microsoft’s AI tools are making employees more efficient.”

Big tech headcount reductions routine

John Annand, practice lead at Info-Tech Research Group, agreed, and said that when it comes to staffing requirements, “the most important thing to remember is that big tech doesn’t operate quite like other companies. A periodic headcount reduction of 3%–5% is often routine housekeeping for firms like Microsoft, Cisco, Meta, Salesforce, and IBM.”

It is, he said, “certainly devastating for those affected, but the impact on customers is usually non-existent unless, like Google, for example, they cut an entire division or product team that your company happens to rely upon. In the case of stockholders, the impact can even be positive as the market rewards a perceived increase in profitability.” 

In addition, noted Melody Brue, VP and principal analyst at Moor, “for companies selling AI as a tool for workforce efficiency, a layoff of their own staff serves as a tangible demonstration that their technology delivers on its promise. This offers a subtle, often overlooked proof point that AI can achieve the very productivity gains they market, not just cost savings or headcount reduction.”

Reprioritization of resources

Jason Wong, distinguished VP analyst on the digital workplace team at Gartner, said, “Microsoft has made some significant organizational and operational changes over the past two years, such as discontinuing investments in HoloLens, creating a new CoreAI engineering division and unifying AI under Mustafa Suleyman. These changes likely drive the staffing changes we are witnessing, and Microsoft recalibrates talent and resources to deliver on new products and services.”

As well, Annand observed, “in today’s announcement, Microsoft explicitly cites a reduction in middle management and so seems to be taking what is so far, a very successful page from Lip-Bu Tan’s book as he focuses on turning around Intel.”

Google, he said, has “also recently been experimenting with modifying the day-to-day expectations of middle management with an eye for streamlining and increasing efficiency. The specter of AI coming for white-collar jobs looms large these days, but substantiating that fear remains difficult. In the drive for efficacy, a partnership between AI and their human counterparts, at least for now, seems to be required.” 

Jason Andersen, a VP and principal analyst at Moor, summed up the layoff announcement this way: “What we are seeing in software development organizations is a reprioritization of resources due to AI. Methods like scrum or other agile approaches can be significantly streamlined using AI tooling and AI-capable people.” This, he said, “leads to less effort on reporting and data gathering, so a reduction of this size makes sense. And for enterprise customers, this is good. More money goes into making better products and less goes into Microsoft internal processes.”

Microsoft 365 apps for Windows 10 will continue to get security updates until Oct. 10, 2028, three years after the company ends support for Windows 10 this coming Oct. 14, Microsoft said in a blog post.

At the same time, the company noted that the apps could experience performance issues over time when running on Windows 10. If a customer contacts support about a problem with an M365 app for Windows 10 that does not occur on Windows 11, the customer will be told to upgrade to Windows 11.

If the user can’t do so, support will then only assist in troubleshooting the problem. Technical solutions might be limited — or not available at all. And it will not be possible to report bugs or request other product updates.

The extension of M365 support is a change from Microsoft’s plans in January, when it said support would end in October 2025.

Workday (Nasdaq:WDAY) won a contract to replace the HR systems at the US Office for Personnel Management (OPM) — and then a few days later it lost it, despite having no competition.

Two words on the US government’s System for Award Management (SAM) website put an end to the short-lived single source contract: “canceled justification.”

The contract, awarded on May 2 without a vendor bidding process, and cancelled on May 9, would have been for twelve months of services including core HR processing, payroll and benefits integration with audit-ready reporting, time and attendance tracking, talent acquisition and performance management, and compliance with federal-specific requirements such as FedRAMP, Title 5, electronic SF-52 routing, and audit trails. Compatibility with existing federal IT systems also figured in the requirements.

The implementation was to be complete within 90 days.

At just $342,200 it was a relatively small contract, but it could have led to a larger one given the services OPM provides to other government departments via its current system.

Operational failures

In its justification document for the original contract award on SAM, OPM said, “A sole-source award to Workday is necessary due to an urgent confluence of operational failures and binding federal mandates that require immediate action. OPM’s fragmented and outdated HR systems have reached a critical failure point, resulting in payroll errors, benefits disruptions, and a manual workload that is no longer sustainable.”

OPM used the document to defend its decision to award the contract without a competition, saying, “This acquisition is not the result of poor planning, but rather a response to an unanticipated acceleration of operational crises and federally imposed deadlines. Workday is the only responsible source capable of delivering the required capabilities within the time available, and full and open competition with other vendors would result in unacceptable delays, noncompliance, and mission failure.”

At the end of the contract period, OPM said, it intended to conduct a “full and open competition,” although it added that this would only occur “if no justifiable sole-source condition exists.”

Rule of law

The contract award drew criticism from current and former employees of OPM, Reuters reported, as well as from the Information Technology Acquisition Advisory Council, which makes recommendations to improve federal IT contracting.

IT-AAC director John Weiler thanked the OPM “for upholding the rule of law and taking corrective action” in a post on LinkedIn, adding, “OPM escaped a bruising protest that would have further delayed its HR modernization journey. Hopefully this is a lesson for others looking for shortcuts that the rule of law is not the problem. It’s how we implement!”

Asked about the contract cancellation, a Workday representative would only say that the company “remains committed to supporting the federal government with its HR modernization efforts.”

The OPM did not respond to a request for comment by publication time.

Jamf (Nasdaq:JAMF) wants to make enterprise support for Android as easy as it has become for Apple and plans to expand into Android device management beginning in July, the company said.

The new support will be featured within the Jamf for Mobile solution, with the idea behind this integration to make it much easier for Apple-based enterprises to also support Android devices in use alongside their iPhone, iPad, and Mac fleets.

Raising all the boats

Enterprise tech will be able to manage Apple and Android platforms from within the same Jamf console they already use. The company stressed that the addition of Android support should improve its offer to Apple-based businesses.

“For years, we’ve helped organizations do more with mobile by focusing on the best platform for work: Apple,” said Henry Patel, chief strategy officer at Jamf. “By adding basic Android enrollment to Jamf for Mobile, we’re enabling Apple-first organizations to eliminate friction — so a few Android devices don’t stand in the way of delivering exceptional Apple experiences at scale.” 

Patel stressed that the upcoming Android support should be considered a positive additive to the company’s existing Apple focus, rather than reflecting any thawing ardor for the company’s computing platforms. “This addition helps us support customers who primarily use Apple, but also have some Android in their environment — without forcing them into a one-size-fits-all UEM platform,” he said.

I expect Jamf wants to approach that challenge with its customary “consumer simple” mindset, intentionally ensuring that supporting Android alongside Apple creates no additional friction and is convincingly easy to use. “Jamf’s commitment to Apple remains unwavering,” he added.

Apple MDM has become a diverse market

It is, of course, also true that the Apple device management space is becoming increasingly competitive, with many new players achieving market traction. Hexnode, Fleet, and others each desire clear product positioning to help their services stand out. And while the Apple-in-the-enterprise market is growing swiftly enough to sustain multiple providers, Jamf is clearly not blind to the reality that several competitors now offer support across multiple platforms — some support every platform.

Not that this reality appears to have dented Jamf much. 

The company’s most recent financial report revealed a 10% increase in revenue, exceeding estimates to reach $167.6 million for $37.6 million non-GAAP operating income. Highlights in that quarter included the acquisition of Identity Automation and international revenue growth of 16%. The company expects FY 2025 revenue to increase 10%-11% year-on-year. 

From the perspective of the Apple MDM industry, Jamf doesn’t seem to be under pressure — yet. But as one of the premium Apple MDM services, the company must continue to polish its offerings to help maintain its leadership reputation. 

Building reputations, one announcement at a time

In business, halos seldom shine without a little bit of help, and the addition of Android support to the service Jamf provides to enterprises managing 1,000+ devices is a convenience for those managing diverse fleets. It’s a way the company can continue to help its products stand out.

That also means Jamf won’t be alone in making service optimization news in the coming months; the all-important enterprise buying season is upon us, which means I expect most credible Apple-in-the-enterprise service providers to make announcements in the coming weeks. 

Looking forward, Apple’s enterprise partners will also be anxious to hear about any business-focused announcements at the company’s forthcoming Worldwide Developer’s Conference (WWDC) next month. Will Apple fix some of the pain points, such as more automated deployment tools, enhancements to Declarative Device Management, or introduce more granular controls to limit or constrain use of AI on managed devices?

Only time — and Apple’s keynote and developer’s presentations — will tell. Meanwhile, Android-for-enterprise evangelists can now look forward to their devices gaining a little more credibility, thanks to Apple’s long-time enterprise deployment partner.
