The Future of AI: Agents

Marc Benioff, Chair and CEO of Salesforce, states, “Agentforce marks the Third Wave of AI, moving beyond copilots to a new era of highly precise, low-hallucination intelligent agents that actively contribute to customer success. Unlike other platforms, Agentforce seamlessly integrates AI across every workflow, deeply embedding itself into the customer journey.”

Agentforce: A Revolutionary Platform

Unlike traditional copilots and chatbots that depend on human prompts and struggle with complex tasks, Agentforce operates autonomously. It retrieves relevant data as needed, constructs action plans for any task, and executes these plans without human intervention. Agentforce adapts to changing circumstances by using real-time data, similar to a self-driving car. It operates independently within an organization’s customized boundaries, ensuring every customer interaction is informed, meaningful, and valuable.

Human-Agent Collaboration

When necessary, Agentforce seamlessly transitions to human employees, providing a summary of the interaction, customer details, and recommendations for further action.

Industry Leaders Embrace Agentforce

Leading organizations like OpenTable, Saks, and Wiley are already benefiting from Agentforce. For instance, Agentforce helps companies like Wiley offer customers dynamic, conversational self-service. By utilizing Wiley’s knowledge base integrated into Salesforce, Agentforce can automatically resolve account access issues. It also effectively handles registration and payment problems, directing customers to the appropriate resources.

Enhanced Efficiency and Focus

With Agentforce handling routine inquiries, Wiley has witnessed a significant increase of over 40% in case resolution. This surpasses the performance of their previous chatbot, allowing human agents to concentrate on more complex and strategic cases.

The Importance of Agentforce

An estimated 41% of employee time is spent on repetitive, low-impact tasks, according to the Salesforce Trends in AI Report. Agentforce offers a solution by relieving overstretched teams, allowing them to scale capacity on demand and focus on higher-touch, higher-value, and more strategic outcomes.

The Future of Work

The future of work involves a hybrid workforce composed of humans and agents, enabling companies to remain competitive in a constantly evolving world.
