Just as cloud computing evolved from Infrastructure (IaaS) to Platforms (PaaS) to Software (SaaS), we’re now entering the next frontier: Collaborative Intelligence-as-a-Service (CaaS). CaaS reimagines how GenAI is built, delivered, and consumed, including the rise of AI Teammates that work alongside humans across every function and industry.
A new generation of digital companions is redefining what’s possible. These AI Teammates aren’t just tools – they’re trusted partners, unlocking a $6 trillion opportunity across every role and industry and elevating humans to superhuman levels. We’re entering the Collaborative Intelligence era where humans and AI build the future together.
Applications will evolve from systems of record to systems of intelligence and action in horizontal and vertical segments.
Middleware is where AI comes to life. These development environments power the orchestration, development, and monitoring. This layer equips teams with the tools to build, deploy, and manage AI apps and agents.
Data is the context layer that makes AI safe. This layer includes embedding frameworks, tools to control data and automate data pipelines, enforce security, and ensure quality at scale.
Specialized AI models will drive the Collaborative Intelligence stack – extending beyond language to include physical reasoning, scientific research, environmental simulation, and vertical or industry-specific applications.
Semiconductors are the bedrock of the Collaborative Intelligence era. As demand for real-time, on-device, and edge inference grows, innovations in silicon will unlock breakthroughs in performance, energy efficiency, and model specialization.
