An agent, not a chatbot
- Starting out
A chatbot answers. An agent does the work. It reads your files, searches the web, writes documents, runs tools and checks its own results, step after step, until the job is done.
- Starting out
So you can hand it whole jobs, not just questions. "Write me an email" is a chatbot request. "Go through these 40 quotes, compare them, and draft the email to the best two suppliers" is an agent request.
- Starting out
You stay in charge. The agent works with your rights, shows you what it did, and you decide what is good enough.
How this Playbook works
- Starting out
This is a guide to keep, not a course to finish. Come back whenever you are stuck or want to get more out of your agents.
- Starting out
When you know a point completely, press I know this beside it. It moves to You know these at the bottom of the list, so what is left is what is worth your time. If you only mostly know it, leave it where it is.
- Starting out
Nothing is lost. Open a page under You know these to see what you marked, and press Show me again to bring a point back.
