This allows them to connect a custom chatbot or AI agent with their databases and leave the AI to answer questions for decision-makers and stakeholders. However, unless your AI engine is connected to a proven decision intelligence engine that’s connected to well-prepared data sources, it’s likely to return answers that are untrustworthy and inaccurate.
