Salesforce Army deal exposes $5.6 billion hype trap

Salesforce (CRM) is in the news again, clinching a huge government contract: the U.S. Army gave the cloud-based software company a $5.6 billion, 10-year contract deal to help with modernization and preparedness.

The deal, once again, shows that every sector of the world is going to, in one way or another, be touched by AI or a tech-forward future.

Salesforce maintains that Computable Insights LLC, a national security company 100% owned by Salesforce, is responsible for the deal.
