Databricks updates Genie to handle multi-step tasks unsupervised
What happened
On November 11, Databricks released an updated version of its Genie AI agent. The company says the new version uses an ontology built from customer platform data to supply context, letting it finish time-consuming multi-step tasks without supervision. CEO Ali Ghodsi showed reporters real usage logs: analyzing low employee-satisfaction scores, evaluating improvement plans, and summarizing failed sales conversations to surface negative feedback management rarely hears. He also said enterprises can set usage limits through Unity Gateway and switch to cheaper open-weight models to control costs.
