AI is everywhere: Learn about new innovations transforming the enterprise​

SAP has defined its AI strategy as 3-part, drawing upon Joule (a chatbot), SAP Business Technology Platform, and embedded AI capabilities. And across all three of these domains, SAP continues to announce fast-growing innovation and expanding opportunity for the enterprise.​

Just this month, at Sapphire, SAP announced Joule’s integration with Microsoft 365. Already, Joule could reach deep into SAP products, performing up to 80% of tasks in solutions like SAP SuccessFactors. But now, Joule can move between solutions provided by Microsoft and SAP, unifying a huge number of the different technologies that enable modern-day business. Now, Joule can book a flight using SAP Concur and block a calendar appropriately in Microsoft Outlook, or Joule can summarize the actionable goals of a Microsoft Teams meeting and assign tasks by utilizing the skillsets assigned to each team member in SuccessFactors.

The SAP Business Technology Platform allows customers to pick-and-choose use case-specific advantages like these, rapidly building low-code/no-code apps to alleviate specific pain points. SAP BTP is an early-access pass to cloud advantages like AI. While these powerful tools are available exclusively through cloud services, with BTP accelerators like InFocus, a line of assessments from Sierra made free to customers by sponsorship from SAP, customers can get AI advantages on BTP in a matter of weeks.

But Philipp Herzig, Chief AI Officer at SAP, says, “Business AI means, first and foremost, that we are embedding AI into our business applications – supply chain, finance, HR, procurement, travel and expenses – and various other business processes.” Across the enterprise, in every application, AI will deliver reliable, relevant, responsible business advantage.
