Today's podcast is with Vivek Pandya, Director, Adobe Digital Insights at Adobe. I recently caught up with Vivek at Adobe Summit in Las Vegas to talk about some new research that Adobe just published called AI to Cart, which highlights the impact that Generative AI-powered chat interfaces are having on consumers, how that is changing their search and shopping behaviours, what brands should be doing in response and his highlights from the event. This interview follows on from my recent interview – The art and the science of listening – Interview with Zig Serafin, Brad Anderson and Isabelle Zdatny of Qualtrics – and is number 536 in the series of interviews with authors and business leaders who are doing great things, providing valuable insights, helping businesses innovate and delivering great service and experience to both their customers and their employees.
This week we're bringing you a special episode, recorded live at the Adobe Summit in Las Vegas in March 2025. As we here at the CMO podcast are happy customers of Adobe, we were excited to be part of the programming at the Summit. Our topic was How CMOs can thrive in these times of rapid change, with Jim being joined on stage by Emily Silver, SVP and Chief Marketing & Athlete Experience Officer of Dick's Sporting Goods, to join me on stage. Emily is a returning guest to the show, joining Jim last fall to talk about stepping into her first CMO role. Emily spent over 16 years at PepsiCo, in about nine roles, before she joined the sports brand in 2023. Recorded live in front of an audience, including a collection of Emily's associates from Dick's, Emily and Jim discuss how sports brings us together, and how she and her company are thriving in these uncertain times.

With nearly two decades of experience in the marketing technology sector, Tony has transitioned from the agency world to leading marketing technology at Wrench Group. In our conversation, Tony challenges the misconception that simply acquiring new tools will miraculously solve organizational issues. Instead, he reveals how a strategic approach, emphasizing readiness and structure, is essential to truly leveraging technology investments within your organization.Throughout our discussion, we tackle the intricacies of organizational readiness and its critical role in implementing effective technology solutions. From miscommunication pitfalls to the perennial struggle of justifying tech investments as value-generating rather than costly expenses, we cover it all. Drawing from personal anecdotes and industry events like Adobe Summit, we highlight how aligning organizational structures with tech investments fosters a holistic business strategy, ensuring that every tool performs its best function. These lessons are especially poignant for businesses navigating the challenges of cost versus investment perceptions within their tech stacks.Finally, we focus on the vital elements of change management and decision-making in tech adoption. With real-world examples, Tony and I explore how a robust plan and clear communication strategies can overcome resistance and foster stakeholder buy-in. We delve into the complexities of decision-making authority and the cultural barriers to acknowledging 'successful failures.' By encouraging an environment ripe for experimentation and learning, organizations can transform tech adoption from a daunting task into an opportunity for enhanced efficiency and productivity.

On y a beaucoup parlé de Firefly, l'IA générative d'images d'Adobe que les marques vont pouvoir “entrainer” avec leurs propres images pour des visuels qui leur ressemblent et des contenus hyper personnalisés. Alors, est-ce le début de la fin du marketing de masse qui inonde nos boites mail ? On va en débattre et ça promet !Si vous appréciez iWeek et si vous souhaitez nous soutenir, rejoignez notre communauté sur patreon.com/iweek.
Adobe was one of the hottest stocks in 2023 thanks to the artificial intelligence tidal wave. But that growth has slowed as the AI feeding frenzy begins to settle. Adobe saw a similar pullback last year before the introduction of Firefly propelled shares higher. And with new AI powered-tools taking center stage at this year's Adobe Summit, investors will find out if Adobe stock will sing a similar tune — or fall out of rhythm with the market. On this Growth Stories Spotlight, we speak to Anil Chakravarthy, who heads the digital experience business at Adobe, to get an inside look at the company's AI strategy and the road ahead.
The latest from Adobe's earnings call held on Thursday, March 14th, 2024, the multinational computer software company, provided insights into their recent activities. Shantanu Narayen, CEO of Adobe, communicated a note of assurance in the company's potential to draw in new users and deliver value to its customer base, fostering growth and profitability. Among the points acknowledged on the call, Narayen lauded his team, stating, "I'd like to thank our 30,000 employees for their continued dedication and focus on innovation and execution." While Adobe's activities include ventures like Project Primrose, which is largely related to the fashion industry, it does not directly factor into the company's past quarter's earnings analysis. Rather, the emphasis remains on Adobe's core products, including Creative Cloud, Document Cloud, Experience Cloud, and the integration of Generative AI with these offerings. A primary focus during the first quarter of the 2024 fiscal year was Adobe's financial performance. The company saw a year-over-year revenue growth of 12%, reaching an impressive total of $5.18 billion. Performance metrics including GAAP and non-GAAP earnings per share also showed growth, with GAAP earnings per share at $1.36 and non-GAAP earnings standing at $4.48, indicating an 18% year-over-year increase. These figures, reported on the call, illustrate Adobe's strength in the global digital economy and the role that its products play within this industry. Adobe's products, as highlighted on the call, have found their necessity among diverse user groups, including creators, communicators, students, entrepreneurs, and businesses of all sizes. In particular, the integration of Generative AI capabilities into applications such as Photoshop, Illustrator, Acrobat, and Experience Cloud has led to increased usage and demand, aiding in boosting productivity and enhancing creative processes. Further into the earnings call, Narayen provided further insight: "We gave a Q1 target, and we beat that Q1 target. That gives us confidence that the financial target we gave at the beginning of the year - we're ahead of that." The call highlighted a growing trend toward the inclusion of Generative AI across various sectors, influencing content creation and delivery processes for students, marketing professionals, and beyond. Aspects such as Adobe's AI Assistant in Acrobat, generative models in Photoshop, and Firefly Services are witnessing increased use among customers. In response to these trends and customer requirements, Adobe plans continued investment in AI advances. The goal is to underscore products such as Express, Firefly, Creative Cloud, Acrobat, and Experience Cloud with AI developments. In addition to focusing on AI, Adobe has plans to monetize its AI offerings by introducing new products, updates, and integrations throughout the year. The forthcoming Adobe Summit is expected to be a stage for showcasing these innovations. While initiatives like Project Primrose are demonstrative of Adobe's commitment to innovation and creativity, the emphasis in the earnings call analysis is squarely on the company's core offerings and their effective integration with generative AI. This strategy seems to underpin Adobe's financial performance and the ongoing growth in demand for its products across multiple customer segments. However, it is important to remember that actual outcomes may vary, and this summary is based on statements made during the company's most recent earnings call.

It's just for debugging.” kinda stuff, and other “I don't wanna test that” places. To exclude code blocks, we can use *# pragma: no cover* in the code. Or we can list lines in coverage setting with exclude_lines, but you have to also list # pragma: no cover, which is weird. exclude_also just just right. It leaves all the inline excludes alone, and adds some regexes, and you can even just have one if that's all you need, like if __name__ == .__main__.: See coverage docs Michael #2: Writeside An IDE for writing the docs Write, test, build, and publish docs Docs-as-code out of the box Doc quality automation: Ensure documentation quality and integrity with 100+ on-the-fly inspections in the editor as well as tests in Live Preview and during build.

Ryan Fleisch is Adobe's Head of Product Marketing and Real-Time CDP and Audience Manager. Being a lifelong chess player, it makes sense that he is passionate about looking beyond the immediate use cases of AI and trying to understand and anticipate ways the technology will impact workflows and the nature of marketing in the future. He learned from his dad that "the day you stop learning is the day your career becomes nothing more than a job." This wisdom has kept him intellectually curious and lends itself perfectly to the cutting-edge work being done at Adobe.In this episode, Alan and Ryan discuss customer data platforms, what makes Adobe's CDP "real-time," new features to help businesses operate effectively in the cookieless world, and how generative AI will transform how companies use data. At Adobe, "real-time" isn't a buzzword; it's a key component they have been optimizing since day one. They have built a globally distributed network of servers to be able to handle data and use it in milliseconds. This network allows Adobe's Real-Time CDP users to collect data, manage it, process it, and immediately use it to understand customer intent and activate strategies. In addition to the immediacy of the tool, Adobe has launched a new open framework that allows them to work with data providers to compile consented, non-cookie-based data into their platform in a private, safe way. Once businesses effectively collect and manage their first-party data, many are unsure exactly what to do with it. This is where Adobe's new use-case playbooks come in handy. These tools are built into the CDP and give businesses guided workflows based on their specific business objectives. Ryan tells us one of the many uses for generative AI in marketing is helping marketers understand and recognize missed opportunities hidden in the mass of data. He highlights Adobe Sensei GenAI as one such tool.In this episode, you'll learn:The three critical components that make Adobe's CDP "real-time"The main things to consider when selecting a CDPUse cases for generative AI with customer dataKey Highlights: [01:25] What is Adobe Real-Time CDP?[02:55] What new things are available?[04:35] A 3D view of the customer[05:20] Real-world applications and activations[06:20] Use Case playbooks[07:10] It's all generative.[08:00] What to think about when you are selecting your CDP[09:40] Key takeaways from the Adobe Summit[11:30] Advice from Dad[12:20] Looking beyond the immediate use cases for AI[12:55] CheckmateResources Mentioned: Ryan Fleisch Adobe Hosted on Acast.
