In an interview, Chief Executive Arvind Krishna said he saw an opening to provide software that integrates customers’ Al agents from other providers— among them Salesforce, Workday and Adobe — and lets them build their own agents for untapped use cases, with IBM's help.

“We help our clients integrate. We want to meet them where they are,” he said, ahead of IBM's annual Think conference sessions yesterday.
