    "excerpt": "The artificial intelligence industry spent the last few years competing on raw capability, racing to build ever more powerful models.

Over roughly two decades in technology, Kramer has held senior leadership roles at a string of high-growth companies, including GitLab, Oracle, and the data-analytics firms Tableau and Alteryx, and earlier in her career she worked at NASA. That background, spanning sales, marketing, and product at companies that scaled significantly during her tenure, is precisely the kind of enterprise pedigree a company brings in...",
