Dreamforce 2024 Opening Keynote - Marc Benioff

Dreamforce 2024 opened with Marc Benioff unveiling Salesforce’s biggest AI breakthrough yet: Agentforce. In this main keynote, you’ll see how AI agents are redefining the future of business, not by replacing humans, but by working alongside them to deliver customer success at scale. Benioff highlights Salesforce’s values of trust, innovation, and equality, and explains why agents represent the “third wave of AI”, moving beyond copilots to autonomous action. You’ll hear customer success stories from brands like Wiley, OpenTable, Fossil, Disney, and Saks Fifth Avenue, where AI agents are already resolving service cases, personalizing experiences, and driving efficiency. Clara Shih, Salesforce’s AI CEO, demonstrates the five components of an agent: role, data, actions, channels, and trust. You’ll also see Agent Builder in action, showing how admins can create and scale agents across channels in minutes. Introducing Agentforce: Salesforce’s trusted, data-driven AI platform built to transform CRM and your enterprise.
