    Narrative Analytics with Agent Ada

    Sitting down with Amrutha Ramesh, visiting researcher at ServiceNow one of the minds behind Agent Ada, a data-focused AI agent, in the latest episode of the podcast. We talk about the gap in enterprise workflows: you upload data, ask questions, and expect clear, data-backed insights… but traditional LLMs weren’t designed for that. Amrutha clarifies the distinction by explaining how Agent Ada surpasses merely inputting a dataset into ChatGPT or Gemini, employing personas and a library of reusable skills to analyze data in a more human-like manner. We also dig into turning raw analysis into a story and, most importantly, into actionable steps that people in the business can actually use.
