We were studying ChatGPT for quite a while... we have built over 50 AI use cases, embedding them with our technology," CEO Christian Klein said in an interview. Those use cases will be available to customers next month after its annual Sapphire conference, he said.

SAP also has an internal committee with customers, researchers and analysts to check for biases in AI use cases and guard against potential misuse of the technology, Klein said.
