As generative AI creates new opportunities and transforms cloud operations, it is crucial to learn how to maximize the value of these tools. A recent report from the IBM Institute for Business Value found that 68% of hybrid cloud users already have a formal, organization-wide policy or approach for the use of generative AI. That same report also noted that 58% of global decision makers say that cloud skills remain a considerable challenge.
