Evidence, a business intelligence company backed by Y Combinator and other investors, announced it is hiring software engineers.

Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff dismissed concerns that AI would erode demand for traditional software subscriptions, telling CNBC's Jim Cramer that top AI firms actually rely heavily on Salesforce tools.

The comments came after Salesforce posted strong quarterly results and guidance, sending shares up more than 12%.
