Of course you need data to fuel your AI. You know what's just as helpful though?
🤔
Decisions.
And the conversation and rationale behind it.
As agents become more mainstream, the required structured data only goes so
far.
↳ What about how your team makes decisions?
↳ Or the real reasons why one RFP landed and one flopped?
↳ Or where Deborah in accounting keeps saving that KPI sheet and if it's
actually approved or not?
(Cmon Deborah.)
The big advantage moving forward is giving your agents access to the rationale
and context of your team's conversations.
And that's the big unlock that Slack just unveiled.
