YOUR AGENTS ARE ONLY AS GOOD AS YOUR DATA CONTEXT

Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter

Agents get only data points, so a sales spike from a limited-time promotion reads to them as a lasting trend worth producing more stock for. A semantic layer supplies the missing translation, defining what each column and event means in the words teams actually use in Slack and meetings. Amplitude's own layer took its agent to correct answers 80 to 90 percent of the time, with custom instructions closing the rest.
