Question: Who do you work with?
I'm curious, as an AI automation consultant who do you work with at your clients? Is it the developers? Is it the product managers? Is it the CEO or MD? Is it the operations, sales, marketing teams?

@Mikael Lindback We did the usual rituals like weekly retrospectives and also a weekly stakeholder update call - on the projects I was a part of the project sponsor was rarely part of the day to day project team

@Frank van Bokhorst Ops and Sales seems to be a common theme in this thread!
I built an MCP Tool for Calculating Statistics
There are some things you shouldn't give to an LLM - calculation is one of them. Today I tried to build an MCP Tool so that my agents can complete calculations reliably. The input is an array {x,y,z...} and the output is the sum, mean, median and standard deviation. Let me know if something like this is useful to you? If so I'll try to write some simple docs and make it available. And if it's not useful, let me know why? How are you solving this problem? (I used Leapter for this because that's the tool I'm testing right now!)

@Hicham Char I just added 90th and 75th percentiles as outputs... Maybe this could be broken into a separate tool with the "desired percentile" as an input... something for tomorrow...

@Ricardo Alger Thanks Ricardo. Getting my agents to behave consistently was a huge pain point on my last project! I like the idea of something visual. Perhaps looking at the home page in it's entirety with the imagery would be more useful? leapter.com

@Ricardo Alger I would LOVE that! Will drop you a DM

Agentic AI use case from Mckinsey. This is a fantastic use case for Agentic Automation. Gathering inputs, setting scores, flagging risks, handling anomalies. "Through its agentic AI system, the company has reduced by 50 percent the amount of time required to perform financial-risk analyses. What’s more, use of the tool has helped standardize practices across teams." Here's the link: https://www.mckinsey.com/capabilities/risk-and-resilience/our-insights/the-future-is-agentic-ais-role-in-the-end-to-end-corporate-credit-process?stcr=CD51A219DB4342189EF9CB1370A8B4E0&cid=mgp_opr-eml-alt-rar-mgp-glb--&hlkid=07a692be14d04e25895b34ee57ca6da6&hctky=16844371&hdpid=8bf5eb13-1e2d-4587-a8ec-18e7995430c9#/

@Hicham Char Absolutely. The Agentic parts of the workflow must be defensible. Mostly this is probably complicated deterministic logic (if this then that) with a bit of agentic interpretation, triage, routing and data curation

What's exciting is that it probably wasn't cost effective to automate until now!
Security Question
I work for a small agency and have been gradually building automations for us and a little for our clients. My most recent build is going to be for an inbox-specific automation for merging documents for data processing. The problem I'm running into is that our IT professional (email admin) is wary of the security risk of allowing n8n OAuth credentials the access it requires because it's domain-wide. I've tried to tell them that it's only going to use that access if we build something malicious. But they are wary about someone hacking into n8n and being able to send messages on behalf of, say, our controller. Which i get, but I don't believe that's a problem unless I were to build something to do this. Has anyone else run into this with Outlook permissions, and is there a quick way i can tell them that it shouldn't be an issue, or if i can build something different to mitigate the risk? Thanks!

@Bradley Surkamer Personally I think your admin is right. Any process involving an LLM is vulnerable to manipulation and the potential impact of a compromised email account is high. If a hacker gains access to a compromised email account they can use that to reset the passwords to other applications and gain access to those, or they will be able to access documentation in your google drive / sharepoint via the same email account. @Hicham Char makes a good suggestion about creating a ring fenced mailbox for this use case. This new account should not have access to ANYTHING it does not need. Principle of least privilege!

@Bradley Surkamer My advice is to work with the admin on a solution that works for you both, explain that you want to minimise risk whilst also gaining the benefits of automation! There is usually a way once we're all working towards the same goals ❤️
