AI Agents.
The promise is almost too good to be true right?
And we see RevOps people talking about should I or shouldn’t I?
Here’s a reddit post on that very subject.
So should you be the RevOps person who is building them?
Yes and no.
“Well thanks,” you might say, “for nothing Tim.”
Let me explain.
Ask yourself these 5 questions…
Do you like JSON? ✔️ — you might say “I do”
Do you like CSV files? ✔️ — “I do”
Do you like building flow charts? ✔️— “I do”
Do you like code? ❌ — “Oh hell no“
Do you like data pipelines? ✔️— “I do”
And right there you have it. Don’t like code… leave it alone.
It doesn’t mean your job is going away.
Refusing to update your skillset to include AI means you are obsolete.
Building AI Agents is a whole other beast entirely.
And just because you don’t build them, doesn’t mean you can use them.
