Databricks makes its Genie data agent always on
Data agents are moving from answering questions to working in the background on longer tasks.
Databricks announced an always-on version of Genie, its AI data agent, which can run in the background, pull company information and handle longer tasks. A new Ontology feature maps how people, projects and data relate. The always-on version is headed to preview and beta.
