Title: Digital Transformation Pdf Survive and Thrive in an Era of Mass Extinction
From visionary Silicon Valley entrepreneur Tom Siebel comes a penetrating examination of the new technologies that are disrupting business and government - and how organizations can harness them to transform into digital enterprises.
The confluence of four technologies - elastic cloud computing, big data, artificial intelligence, and the internet of things - writes Siebel, is fundamentally changing how business and government will operate in the 21st century.
Siebel masterfully guides listeners through a fascinating discussion of the game-changing technologies driving digital transformation and provides a roadmap to seize them as a strategic opportunity. He shows how leading enterprises such as Enel, 3M, Royal Dutch Shell, the US Department of Defense, and others are applying AI and IoT with stunning results.
Digital Transformation is the guidebook every business and government leader needs to survive and thrive in the new digital age.

A good primer on the combined power of cloud computing, big data, the IoT, and AI After watching big companies like Blockbuster and Borders go out of business because they couldn’t adapt to changing conditions, Siebel thinks we are in an era of mass corporate extinction with mass speciation of new kinds of companies. Siebel is a gifted writer, and with over 40 years in the industry, often spent talking with other CEOs, he has plenty of stories and insight about the impact of new technology.KEY POINTS FROM THE BOOK• The combination of four disruptive technologies: cloud computing, big data, the internet of things, and artificial intelligence is dramatically changing the way businesses compete.• The smooth rate of change implied by Moore’s law doesn’t capture today’s upheaval. Since 2000, 52% of the Fortune 500 companies have been acquired or gone out of business.• To survive, most companies will have to make revolutionary changes to key corporate processes.• The CEO has to lead this change.• The competitive landscape for governments is also changing. China has declared it intends to be the leader in AI and plans to invest $60 billion per year by 2025 to get there.• Most companies struggle to move beyond AI experiments and prototypes. Perhaps the most valuable parts of the book are Siebel’s tips, like using a model-driven architecture, to increase the odds of success.• Large companies can turn their existing data into a competitive advantage to deter new entrants.• The productivity improvements can be huge. John Deere estimates it will save over $100 million per year using AI to optimize its inventory. 3M hopes to save over $500 million per year from its AI applications. The U.S. Air Force has significantly increased mission-capable readiness by applying AI to predict the need for unscheduled aircraft maintenance.• Siebel gives a CEO action plan with 10 principles. Moreover, he includes a reading list of six general books (from James Gleick’s “The Information,” to Brynjolfsson and McAfee’s “The Second Machine Age.”) And if you want more, he gives a list of Coursera online courses that teach you how to code.An essential and compelling read from one of Silicon Valley's most respected entrepreneurs I can think of no one better qualified to write a book on digital disruption than Tom Siebel. Siebel has built a career navigating the maelstrom of digital disruption in Silicon Valley and his perspective is deeply rooted in his experience with the key technologies leaders must understand to succeed in the 21st century's information economy.The book is well written and accessible to managers and CEOs and offers practical advice for catalyzing change and taking the right risks to build long term competitive advantage. Anyone who wants to better understand the implications of cloud computing, AI and the internet of things and how these technologies will impact their company's, strategy and ultimately product roadmaps should read this book.Making Sense of a World in Transformation Tom Siebel's Digital Transformation pulls off a very neat trick: making sense of the accelerating pace of innovation that's fundamentally altering business and society. If you need to understand how new technologies are transforming our world (and you do), this book is the place to start.
