“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?

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?

Bruh, I can’t with you lol. Or your dogshit company, either, which apparently has such poor data management that its original plan was to get sales people to ask the fucking developpers to get marketting information for them. Embarrassing.

I love how there’s no possible way for anything to work except for your specific solution and that’s it. Everything else is throwing your hands up in the air and getting mad at people.

Ok now that it is abundantly clear that you fundamentally do not understand anything about software, development, or databases, we're done here. I sincerely hope you're either under the age of 12 or over the age of 60, because otherwise you're in for a tough time.

How many times you gunna say “you clearly don’t understand” before you just admit that you don’t have the communication skills to talk about it with anyone who doesn’t have intimate knowledge about your specific project and how your soecific company does, or evidently doesn’t, function? Sorry I made you feel bad about yourself by asking questions you couldn’t answer.

Look, you don’t need to admit it to me, this exchange has been heated enough and I get that, but for the love of god please be better the next time you find yourself in a similar situation.

You not having the capacity to understand very basic concepts and examples doesn’t mean my communication skills are bad. It means you lack the capacity to understand very basic concepts and examples.

Best of luck, you’ll need it.

Yikes, big dog.
