    Snowflake के CEO: AI एजेंट कैसे बदल देंगे काम करने का तरीका (Hindi version)

    निकोलाई टैंगन बात करते हैं Snowflake के CEO श्रीधर रामास्वामी से। Snowflake एक डेटा प्लेटफ़ॉर्म है जो दुनिया की आधी सबसे बड़ी कंपनियों को चलाता है। इस बातचीत में वे समझते हैं कि डेटा और AI की दुनिया में असल में क्या हो रहा है। दोनों इन बातों पर गहराई से चर्चा करते हैं: Snowflake सिर्फ़ इस्तेमाल के हिसाब से पैसे लेता है (कंजम्पशन-बेस्ड प्राइसिंग), और यही बात इसे आम सॉफ़्टवेयर कंपनियों से अलग बनाती है। श्रीधर अब मानते हैं कि AI मॉडल बनाने वाली कंपनियाँ टेक इंडस्ट्री में सबसे बड़ा ख़तरा हैं—बाक़ी किसी से भी ज़्यादा। और AI एजेंट अब हर चीज़ बदल रहे हैं—डेटा पाइपलाइन से लेकर सॉफ़्टवेयर इंजीनियरिंग तक। श्रीधर अपनी कंपनी Neva के बारे में भी बात करते हैं—उसे शुरू करना और फिर उसका नाकाम होना, और इससे उन्होंने क्या सीखा। साथ ही वे उन मूल्यों के बारे में बताते हैं जिन्होंने उन्हें तमिलनाडु से टेक इंडस्ट्री के शिखर तक पहुँचाया: मेहनत, हर हाल में ढल जाना, और हार न मानना। यह दिलचस्प बातचीत ज़रूर सुनें! —— Snowflake CEO: How AI Agents Will Transform the Workplace  Nicolai Tangen sits down with Sridhar Ramaswamy, CEO of Snowflake, the data platform powering half the world's largest companies, to explore what's really happening at the frontier of data and AI. They dig into how Snowflake's consumption-based pricing sets it apart from traditional software models, why Sridhar now considers AI model companies a bigger competitive threat than anyone else in tech, and how AI agents are transforming everything from data pipelines to software engineering itself. Sridhar also reflects on the lessons learned from founding and failing with Neva, and shares the values of hard work, adaptability, and resilience that have shaped him from Tamil Nadu to the top of the tech industry.

As the fund marks its 30th anniversary, Nicolai Tangen sits down with Norway's Finance Minister and former NATO Secretary General to trace the decisions that turned oil revenues into $2 trillion in national savings. They discuss why Britain and Norway diverged so dramatically despite producing similar volumes of oil, the thinking behind the spending rule, and the risk of complacency when wealth feels guaranteed.
