    My. Guy.

    • The copilot agent has access to at least a read only part of the database, right? And this means that it is possible for something to have access to the database, right?
    • It generates reports for them using this access to the database, right?
    • It knows what each piece of information means because each piece of information comes with some kind of identifier so nothing falls through the cracks, right?
    • “Unless a report exists” exactly, so how would that report have been made pre-copilot? This has been my question the entire time. What were people doing in 2018, for example?

    What is stopping you from making an interface that a human being can use instead of forcing them to go through a copilot agent? I’m assuming that the database is not a clumsily assorted stack of PDF reports or you would have said something by now(right?). All data would have some way of identifying it(sale instance was for X product in Y location for Z amount at [time], for example) and if you can integrate co-pilot than surely you can integrate something to handle that information, right?

    Before the copilot agent, there was no system whatsoever for anyone to make reports because no one had access to the database? So they just hucked information into it and it was lost to time? What if an auditor came through and needed to see things? Did you just say “sorry, no one has access to the database and you’re going to have to wait until LLMs exist and FreedomAdvocate integrates one into the database”?

    Look, dude, I’m ok with not understanding something but you haven’t given me any indication that what I’m asking for wouldn’t work. All you’ve said is “no that won’t work” and the most in-depth thing I’ve gotten is that “there are a lot of places to find the info” but never really elaborated on why that’s a significant problem or why co-pilot can handle it so vastly differently(and without missing anything).

      I have literally answered this multiple times lol. I’ll tell you where AGAIN:

      The support process above, the list that starts with this:

      Again though, this is just you not understanding a simple example. I’ll break it down for you even simpler.

      Since you just ignored that the last time, here is the main point:

      #Without AI Agents in Teams, they would have to create a support ticket to get a new report created by the developers, which would be triaged as low priority most likely, and be placed on the backlog and likely sit there for months.

      What is stopping you from making an interface that a human being can use instead of forcing them to go through a copilot agent?

      What’s stopping me from making a “get whatever you want from the database without having to know a single thing about the database itself, and without having to know any database query languages” interface? Really?

      Before the copilot agent, there was no system whatsoever for anyone to make reports because no one had access to the database?

      Ok I can only assume you’re purposefully being ignorant now.

      Look, dude, I’m ok with not understanding something but you haven’t given me any indication that what I’m asking for wouldn’t work. All you’ve said is “no that won’t work” and the most in-depth thing I’ve gotten is that “there are a lot of places to find the info” but never really elaborated on why that’s a significant problem or why co-pilot can handle it so vastly differently(and without missing anything).

      You fundamentally do not understand how databases and data access work. I’ve tried explaining it to you in the most basic of terms that even a 6 year old could understand, and you still don’t get it. You still keep saying I haven’t answered your question despite me answering it multiple times.

      Do you have an IT background? Can you not see the difference between someone requesting a feature to be made, with that feature taking 6 months to get made, and that someone being able to simply do it themselves instantly with natural language?
