The Databricks Data & AI Summit has earned its reputation as the premier event for the global data, analytics and AI community, and this year was certainly no exception. With over 12,000 of the best and the brightest data and AI professionals in attendance, Prophecy kept very busy throughout the week of events, and we could not be prouder of our team and what we were able to accomplish. As one of only three platinum sponsors for the event, we felt a great responsibility to make sure we represented Prophecy as well as Databricks in the best way possible, and we did not take anything for granted. We were able to announce and share our latest innovations at the summit and showcase the success of our amazing customers. The icing on the cake? We had the privilege of exchanging ideas with incredible data professionals from around the world. 

As one of the leading topics of the summit, the excitement around generative AI was palpable. This was highlighted by Databricks’ announcements around Lakehouse AI and validated by the endless parade of sessions focused on generative AI and large language models (LLMs). We were able to make a splash of our own by showcasing the recent launch of Prophecy 3.1, which includes: 

• Prophecy Data Copilot, our virtual AI assistant that automatically generates visual data pipelines based on natural language prompts 
• Generative AI Platform, providing a simple way to power generative AI applications using your privately-owned, enterprise data

This news quickly caught attention, with VentureBeat breaking the announcement, complementing our own blog posts on these topics. Thanks to this momentum heading into the summit, our booth was packed and demo stations full. 

One of the best moments for our team was during the session led by our cofounders Raj Bains and Maciej Szpakowski titled "Prompt is all you need: Build a generative AI app on enterprise data in 13 minutes”. 

In front of a packed room, Maciej built a generative AI application using Prophecy in just over 13 minutes. The outcome:  thunderous applause. We were very humbled but also very excited for what we are bringing to market that will eliminate many of the challenges organizations are facing when executing their enterprise AI strategy. 

In one of our other highly regarded sessions at the summit we were incredibly fortunate to have Simon King, VP of Data Quality & Integrity at HealthVerity, one of our esteemed customers, show the world how Prophecy enables production-ready, enterprise-grade data pipelines. We are very thankful for HealthVerity’s participation in this event, and their demonstration at the summit was awe inspiring. Simon presented alongside our very own Pouya Barrach-Yousefi. Together, they illustrated Prophecy’s integration with Databricks Lakehouse and how Prophecy automated data pipelines to detect leaked PHI/PII data and seamlessly quarantine it into Databricks cleanrooms. HealthVerity's involvement put on full display the real-world impact of Prophecy in safeguarding sensitive data and upholding data privacy standards.
