Salesforce Hiring 1,000 AI Sellers

Salesforce is set to hire 1,000 salespeople to promote its AI-driven products, particularly the new "agent" technology. This move aligns with CEO Marc Benioff's vision of a "workforce without limits," where human employees collaborate with AI agents to enhance customer success.

The company's AI strategy includes the recent launch of Einstein Service Agent, an autonomous AI agent designed to transform customer service roles. Additionally, Salesforce Ventures announced a $500 million investment fund to support AI innovation, bringing its total AI investment to $1 billion over the past 18 months.

This expansion reflects Salesforce's commitment to integrating AI across its services, aiming to provide clients with advanced tools for improved customer engagement and operational efficiency.
