Stop Building Dumb Copilots: Why Agentic RAG Is Your Only Fix
Your Copilot isn’t smart – it’s a very expensive autocomplete. In this episode, we break down why classic RAG (retrieve-augment-generate) quietly fails the moment your truth lives in more than one system, and how “agentic RAG” on Azure turns Copilot from a context tourist into an actual reasoning engine.
You’ll hear how Planner, Retriever, and Verifier agents running on Azure AI Agent Service can roam Microsoft Fabric, SharePoint, and external data, cross-check their own answers, and deliver evidence-linked insights that auditors, CISOs, and data leaders can actually trust. We dig into On-Behalf-Of auth, RLS/CLS, and Purview labels so your AI respects the same permissions as your humans, instead of leaking CFO forecasts to interns.
If you’re a CIO, CDO, architect, BI lead, or security/GRC owner who’s tired of hallucinated KPIs and pretty-but-useless dashboards, this is your blueprint. Learn how to cut decision latency from months to minutes, turn SharePoint chaos into a semantic memory layer, and make Fabric the quantitative “truth core” of your enterprise copilot. If your AI can’t explain its own reasoning trail, you’re not data-driven—you’re decoratively automated.
🙋♀️ Who’s This For
- 🧠 CIOs / CDOs / Heads of AI — want auditable, verified, compliant answers
- 🏗️ Enterprise & Data Architects — designing Azure-based copilots with real reasoning
- 📊 BI / Analytics Leads — merging Fabric metrics + SharePoint context
- 🛡️ Security & GRC Teams — enforcing OBO auth, RLS/CLS, Purview governance
- ⚙️ Ops & Product Leads — need decisions, not hallucinations

Verifier Agent • Multi-Agent Orchestration • Evidence-Linked Insights • Enterprise Copilot Architecture 🪞 Opening — “Your Copilot Isn’t Smart”
- Copilot = “well-dressed autocomplete,” not true intelligence
- Classic RAG → single query, single context window, zero reasoning
- Enterprises need multi-source reasoning (Finance + Fabric + SharePoint + external)
- Without agentic retrieval → fragmented context + hallucinated insights
- Agentic RAG fixes this: plans, cross-checks, validates before answering
⚙️ Section 1 — The RAG Myth / Why Linear Intelligence Fails
- RAG = retrieve → prompt → generate → stop
- No memory, planning, or contradiction detection
- Can’t join data across systems (Fabric, SharePoint, Power BI, email)
- Produces eloquent but shallow summaries with zero provenance
- Leads to poor decisions, compliance risk, and false confidence
- Enterprises need planning + verification, not bigger prompts
🧠 Section 2 — Enter Agentic RAG / From Search to Reasoning
- Adds executive function to AI: RAG + planning + verification
- Three core roles:
- 🗺️ Planner → decomposes query & assigns tasks
- 🧾 Retriever Agents → pull structured and unstructured data
- ✅ Verifier Agent → checks citations & consistency
- Runs an adaptive reasoning loop → query → validate → refine → act
- Built on Azure AI Agent Service with:
- On-Behalf-Of authentication (OBO)
- Row-/Column-Level Security
- Full audit logging + traceability
- Continuous comprehension = no context amnesia
🗂️ Section 3 — Integrating SharePoint / Turning Chaos Into Knowledge
- SharePoint = corporate archaeology; Agentic RAG = knowledge orchestra
- Uses semantic embeddings + vector search for meaning, not keywords
- Honors Entra ID auth + Purview labels → security-trimmed results
- Every document touch logged → non-repudiation for robots
- Example: R&D query → Planner splits tasks → Fabric for numbers, SharePoint for context
- Verifier cross-checks and flags outdated data
- Outcome: qualitative insight + citations, not random summaries
📊 Section 4 — Microsoft Fabric / The Structured Counterpart
- Fabric = quantitative truth layer; SharePoint = contextual memory
- Fabric Data Agent translates natural language → structured SQL
- OBO auth enforces RLS/CLS; Purview labels travel with data
- All queries logged and auditable in Fabric logs
- Planner uses Fabric first to set numerical boundaries, then SharePoint for context
- Data pruning by reason → fewer queries, higher relevance
- Auditors can trace every number back to its source + timestamp
- Governance scales with intelligence → trust built by design
⚡ Section 5 — Enterprise Impact / From Months to Minutes
- Decision latency crashes:
- R&D alignment → hours → minutes
- Audits → manual weeks → instant replay
- Manufacturing alerts → predictive and continuous
- Business benefits:
- Verified insights reduce risk
- Compliance automated by design
- Teams focus on interpretation, not copy-pasting
- Governance ledger: every retrieval, query, and decision traceable
- Real recklessness = building dumb copilots that can’t reason
🧩 Conclusion — Stop Building, Start Thinking
- RAG without agency = obsolete
- Enterprises need systems that plan, verify, and act under your identity
- Agentic RAG = Azure AI Agent Service + Fabric Data Agents + SharePoint retrievers + Purview governance
- Decorative AI outputs text; Agentic AI produces understanding
- Proof of reasoning → proof of trust
✅ Implementation Quick-List
- 🧭 Deploy Planner / Retriever / Verifier pattern in Azure AI Agent Service
- 🔒 Use On-Behalf-Of Auth + RLS/CLS + Purview integration
- 📂 Add SharePoint Retriever for semantic context
- 🧮 Add Fabric Data Agent for structured query reasoning
- 🔁 Include verification loops for citations & contradictions
- 🧾 Maintain complete audit logs for governance and compliance

Substack
1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,200
Your copilot isn't smart, it's well-dressed, autocomplete,
2
00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:05,760
an over-caffeinated intern in a Microsoft badge
3
00:00:05,760 --> 00:00:08,040
who sounds confident while being utterly lost.
4
00:00:08,040 --> 00:00:09,400
The average admin installs it,
5
00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:10,840
asks one ambitious question like,
6
00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:13,320
summarized last quarter sales across regions,
7
00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:16,360
and then acts surprised when it responds with,
8
00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:19,160
whatever happens to fit in its limited context window.
9
00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:21,560
That's not inside, that's statistical guesswork delivered
10
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:22,760
in a friendly tone.
11
00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:25,160
See, most so-called AI copilots run on something
12
00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:27,840
called retrieval augmented generation, rag for short.
13
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:29,000
In theory, it's brilliant.
14
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:31,000
You ask a question, it searches a knowledge base,
15
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:33,520
grabs relevant chunks and glues them to your prompt,
16
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:35,320
so the language model looks informed.
17
00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:37,840
In practice, it's like asking a single librarian
18
00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:39,160
for all human knowledge.
19
00:00:39,160 --> 00:00:41,560
She sprints down one aisle, grabs three random books
20
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:43,160
and yells the answer while running back,
21
00:00:43,160 --> 00:00:45,480
one query, one retrieval, one chance to be wrong.
22
00:00:45,480 --> 00:00:48,960
Now contrast that with how actual enterprise decisions work.
23
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:50,960
Do you ever need just one piece of data?
24
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:53,000
No, you need the spreadsheet from finance,
25
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:54,520
the research report from SharePoint,
26
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:56,480
the metrics warehouse in Microsoft fabric,
27
00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:58,360
and usually some external market data
28
00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:00,000
that isn't even in your tendency.
29
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,080
Classic rag collapses the moment your truth lives
30
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:03,400
in more than one place.
31
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:06,640
That can't plan multiple searches, can't validate contradictions,
32
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:07,800
and certainly can't understand
33
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:09,960
that quarterly performance means different things
34
00:01:09,960 --> 00:01:11,960
to marketing and manufacturing.
35
00:01:11,960 --> 00:01:14,800
Yet people keep calling these systems intelligent.
36
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:16,680
Wrong, their context tourists.
37
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:19,360
They visit your data estate, take a few selfies with PDFs
38
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:20,840
and pretend they know the city.
39
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:23,200
Meanwhile, the average admin honestly believes
40
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:26,000
copilot has omniscient access to every SharePoint folder.
41
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:29,240
It doesn't, unless you build explicit connectors and reasoners,
42
00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:30,800
it's operating blindfolded.
43
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:33,000
This isn't just inefficient, it's dangerous.
44
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,080
Without agent retrieval, enterprises drown
45
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:38,640
in context fragmentation, decisions get made on partial data.
46
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:40,560
Compliance risks go unnoticed.
47
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,240
Teams chase hallucinated insights produced by a model
48
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:45,400
that never bothered to double check itself.
49
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,960
The irony, the fix already exists, enter agent rag.
50
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,480
It doesn't just fetch information, it thinks through it.
51
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:53,320
It plans, cross checks, and reasons
52
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:54,880
like a digital research team.
53
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:56,960
By the end of this episode, you'll know exactly
54
00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,360
how to make your copilot stop acting like a parrot
55
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:01,000
and start behaving like a scientist.
56
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:02,600
And yes, there are four steps.
57
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,560
We'll fix your dumb copilot in four precise steps.
58
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,120
The rag myth, why linear intelligence fails.
59
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:09,400
All right, let's dissect the myth.
60
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:11,960
Retrieval augmented generation sound sophisticated,
61
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,440
but under the hood, it's brutally linear.
62
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:16,280
Step one, retrieve a few slices of text
63
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:17,560
based on vector similarity.
64
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,160
Step two, stuff those slices into the prompt.
65
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:23,080
Step three, generate an answer and declare victory.
66
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:23,760
That's it.
67
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,000
No memory of previous searches, no reasoning
68
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,080
about contradictions, no recognition of user context.
69
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,160
It's a straight line from query to answer
70
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,640
a glorified SQL join written in English.
71
00:02:33,640 --> 00:02:35,920
The problem begins, the moment reality gets messy.
72
00:02:35,920 --> 00:02:39,480
Say you ask, compare our device reliability with competitors.
73
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:43,000
A vanilla rag system hits one index, grabs any document
74
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,760
mentioning reliability and spits out a summary.
75
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:47,600
Did it check manufacturing logs in fabric?
76
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,280
Did it read that new testing report buried in SharePoint?
77
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:52,400
Did it validate external data from the web?
78
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:53,080
Of course not.
79
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:54,880
It doesn't even know those sources exist.
80
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:57,640
It just paints over uncertainty with eloquence.
81
00:02:57,640 --> 00:03:00,080
Think of it like a library analogy turned tragic.
82
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:03,480
You walk in and ask one librarian about global economics.
83
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:05,720
She runs to a shelf labeled economics.
84
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,760
Hands you a random book about currency exchange from 2012
85
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:10,360
and declares the question solved.
86
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:12,480
Good customer service, terrible scholarship.
87
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:15,040
Real intelligence would recruit multiple librarians,
88
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,480
one for finance, one for history, one for policy,
89
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:18,960
and then synthesize their findings.
90
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:20,920
That's the difference between retrieval and reasoning.
91
00:03:20,920 --> 00:03:22,800
In enterprises, this failure multiplies.
92
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:26,240
A single executive question often touches dozens of systems.
93
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:29,040
SharePoint documents, Power BI data sets,
94
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:31,680
Azure SQL tables, email threats, classic rag
95
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,200
flattens, all that complexity into a single hop.
96
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,360
The result, inconsistent outputs, shallow summaries,
97
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,800
and hallucinated data phrased with confident diction.
98
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:42,880
Regulatory compliance, forget it.
99
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:45,920
When the model pulls from whatever text happens to vector match,
100
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:49,120
you lose povenants, try explaining that to your audit committee.
101
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:52,160
Yet the marketing around co-pilot makes it sound omnipotent.
102
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:55,560
The brochures whisper, ask anything, co-pilot knows your business.
103
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:56,280
No, it doesn't.
104
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,600
It performs text retrieval with amnesia.
105
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:00,520
It can't plan, reflect, or verify.
106
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,000
It doesn't know which SharePoint site contains the right document
107
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,600
or whether the fabric warehouse is even synchronized.
108
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,600
But because the phrasing is smooth, executives assume comprehension
109
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:10,160
where there is only correlation.
110
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,320
This illusion of intelligence is what companies are buying into.
111
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,640
An expensive comfort blanket woven from probability distributions.
112
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:19,200
They celebrate when co-pilot drafts an email correctly,
113
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:22,240
ignoring that it misunderstood the source data entirely.
114
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:24,120
They brag about AI-driven insights
115
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:25,960
without realizing those insights are assembled
116
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,880
from mismatched contexts and partial snapshots.
117
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:30,520
Here's the economic consequence.
118
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,200
Every mis-summarized report, every hallucinated KPI,
119
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:34,960
cascades into poor decisions.
120
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:36,640
Projects pivot based on fiction.
121
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:38,600
Compliance teams chase ghosts.
122
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,600
And when reality catches up, when the fabricated inside
123
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:45,120
fails in production, the blame falls on AI limitations,
124
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:47,800
not on the lazy architecture that ensured failure.
125
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:51,200
The truth, linear intelligence fails because enterprises aren't linear.
126
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:54,280
Data is distributed, contextual, and often contradictory.
127
00:04:54,280 --> 00:04:57,320
A fixed one-query pipeline can't adapt to that environment
128
00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:59,200
any more than a single neuron can think.
129
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:00,560
What you need isn't a better prompt.
130
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:02,800
You need a system that can plan.
131
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,560
One that can decide which services to use in what order
132
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,240
and how to verify the outcome.
133
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:09,480
So how do we teach a co-pilot to operate
134
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:11,480
like a research team instead of a parrot?
135
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:13,320
That's where agentech rag enters.
136
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:17,120
The evolutionary leap from reactive retrieval to proactive reasoning.
137
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,640
It adds layers of planning, specialized retrievers,
138
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:20,840
and verification loops.
139
00:05:20,840 --> 00:05:23,000
In other words, it stops pretending to be smart
140
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,320
and finally learns to think.
141
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,960
Enter agentech rag from search to reasoning.
142
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,040
Here's where we move from gimmick to intelligence.
143
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:31,760
Agentech rag isn't another buzz word.
144
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:34,520
It's the missing faculty or co-pilot was born without.
145
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:35,520
Executive function.
146
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:38,240
Think of it as rag that grew a prefrontal cortex.
147
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,440
Instead of running one query and crossing its digital fingers,
148
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:44,120
it breaks a problem into parts, assigns tasks
149
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:46,920
to different specialist agents, checks their work,
150
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:48,920
and then synthesizes the outcome.
151
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,360
In short, it converts language models from parrots into planners.
152
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:54,280
Mechanically, agentech rag operates
153
00:05:54,280 --> 00:05:58,240
through multi-agent orchestration built on Azure AI agent service.
154
00:05:58,240 --> 00:05:59,840
Picture three roles in motion.
155
00:05:59,840 --> 00:06:02,640
First, the planner, a kind of digital project manager.
156
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,120
The planner reads your query and decides which tools
157
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:07,040
or data sources are relevant.
158
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,160
Then come the retriever agents, domain experts,
159
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:12,120
trained to access structure or unstructured data.
160
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,760
Finally, the verifier or reason agent functioning
161
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:16,920
as editor-in-chief checks consistency,
162
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,680
validates citations and compiles the final response.
163
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,880
Together, they run what we call an adaptive reasoning loop.
164
00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:26,560
Query, retrieve, validate, refine, and act.
165
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:28,280
The crucial word is adaptive.
166
00:06:28,280 --> 00:06:31,760
Unlike standard rag, this loop doesn't terminate at the first output.
167
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,000
It reroute when contradictions appear.
168
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:36,200
Compare this orchestrated dance to a newsroom.
169
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:38,920
The planner is the managing editor assigning beats.
170
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,360
You check SharePoint for internal reports.
171
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:43,280
You pull the sensor matrix from fabric.
172
00:06:43,280 --> 00:06:45,400
You scan the web for competitor data.
173
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:47,360
Each retriever agent fetches its portion.
174
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,520
The verifier fact checks the combined draft,
175
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:52,000
reruns queries if citations conflict
176
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,000
and only then publishes the summary.
177
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,440
The result isn't a blob of text that merely sounds plausible.
178
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,600
It's a coherent evidence linked inside.
179
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:00,600
The leap here isn't bigger models.
180
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:02,400
It's structured reasoning.
181
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:04,120
Let's drill further into the planner's brain.
182
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,960
It interprets your plain English question into a task map.
183
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:09,280
Which retrievers to use, which order to run them in
184
00:07:09,280 --> 00:07:11,320
and how their findings should merge.
185
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:15,000
This is where the Azure AI agent service earns its existence.
186
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,760
It provides the orchestration layer that lets these agents communicate.
187
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:21,400
Microservices that speak through APIs
188
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:25,680
governed by Microsoft, Entra, Authentication, not guesswork.
189
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:28,240
Now about security, because the average compliance officer
190
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,160
is already reaching for the panic button.
191
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:31,720
AgenteGrag doesn't cut corners.
192
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:33,920
It's built around on behalf of authentication,
193
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,840
meaning your identity travels with the request.
194
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:38,400
The system doesn't impersonate you.
195
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,800
It uses your verified token to fetch only what you have
196
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:42,200
permission to see.
197
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,160
Row-level security, RLS and column-level security,
198
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:46,800
CLS come baked in.
199
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:50,040
The AI can't accidentally reveal the CFO's forecast to an intern.
200
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,760
Every retrieval call is logged, auditable and reversible.
201
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:56,080
This matters because static rag has no concept of user context.
202
00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:58,120
It grabs whatever its search layer allows.
203
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:01,160
Often bypassing the enterprise's permission scaffolding entirely.
204
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:02,960
AgenteGrag restores that discipline.
205
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:05,320
When the fabric retriever queries a lake house table,
206
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:08,840
it enforces the same RLS rules your BI dashboards obey.
207
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:12,160
When the SharePoint agent rummages through document libraries,
208
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:15,720
it honors site-level permissions and Microsoft purview labels.
209
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:17,920
So the same policies that protect your human users
210
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:19,600
now protect your AI ones.
211
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:21,920
Let's fold this back into workflow reality.
212
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,200
Suppose the question is, which glucose range
213
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:26,600
does product A underperform compared to product B?
214
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:28,400
And what's the clinical impact?
215
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:31,360
Standard rag will dump whatever snippets mentioned product A
216
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:32,320
and glucose.
217
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:35,480
AgenteGrag, powered by Azure AI agent service,
218
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:38,520
would first have its planner identify three retrieval fronts.
219
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,160
Fabric for sensor data, SharePoint for clinical notes
220
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,360
and Bing for external publications.
221
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:45,720
Each retriever agent brings in relevant evidence.
222
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,360
The verifier compares trends across data sets,
223
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:51,720
flags discrepancies, maybe even refines the original fabric query
224
00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:53,320
if an outlier appears.
225
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:56,040
Only after validation does it synthesize the final insight
226
00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:57,160
with citations intact.
227
00:08:57,160 --> 00:08:59,040
That's iterative reasoning in action.
228
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,160
Reactive rag stops after step one.
229
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,400
AgenteGrag learns and adjusts mid-conversation.
230
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:06,960
It can decompose follow-up questions automatically.
231
00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:10,000
Ask can we improve accuracy using recent studies
232
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,960
and the same agents pivot to fetch emerging materials
233
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:14,160
without losing context.
234
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:17,360
Its continuous comprehension, not episodic memory loss.
235
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:18,960
The compliance bonus is enormous.
236
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:21,400
Every agent's action is traceable in audit logs,
237
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,080
every token authenticated, every document touch logged.
238
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:25,920
You get the illusion of omniscience
239
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:29,760
with the paperwork of prudence, something auditors adore.
240
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:31,480
So the philosophical shift is this.
241
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:33,440
Retrieval alone provides information.
242
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,120
Agency converts that information into process
243
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,880
by introducing planning, specialization and verification
244
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,000
as your agent service transforms random data
245
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,080
pulls into accountable reasoning chains.
246
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:45,560
In the enterprise world, that's the difference between
247
00:09:45,560 --> 00:09:48,280
an assistant you trust and one you quietly disable.
248
00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:50,200
Now that our co-pilot has a functioning brain,
249
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,200
it's time to feed it a proper memory.
250
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,600
In other words, let's give it somewhere substantial to look,
251
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,560
starting with the unstructured chaos of SharePoint.
252
00:09:57,560 --> 00:10:00,360
Integrating SharePoint, turning chaos into knowledge.
253
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:02,840
SharePoint is where corporate knowledge goes to hide.
254
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:04,120
Every enterprise has one,
255
00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:07,160
an archaeological dig site of PowerPoints, meeting notes,
256
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:10,920
outdated specifications and documents named final V12 really final.
257
00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:12,200
And to humans, it's chaos.
258
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,920
To a naive rack system, it's unreadable chaos.
259
00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:17,560
Keyword search dutifully returns a thousand results,
260
00:10:17,560 --> 00:10:18,920
most of them irrelevant,
261
00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:21,960
and the average user scrolls until morale improves.
262
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,800
Then they ask co-pilot for help and co-pilot promptly summarizes
263
00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:25,920
the wrong decade.
264
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,600
AgenteGrag treats SharePoint differently,
265
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,080
not as a library, but as a knowledge substrate.
266
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,640
It knows that buried inside those folders
267
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:35,320
are the qualitative insights
268
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:38,040
that fabrics, structured tables will never capture.
269
00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,440
Context, decisions, rational.
270
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,360
So instead of running a single keyword sweep,
271
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:45,480
the SharePoint Retriever agent uses semantic embeddings
272
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:48,600
and vector search to map meaning, not just text.
273
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,560
Ask about product reliability in humid environments,
274
00:10:51,560 --> 00:10:53,520
and it doesn't fixate on those exact words.
275
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:55,680
It notices documents discussing failure modes,
276
00:10:55,680 --> 00:10:59,080
condensation resistance and adhesive performance.
277
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,080
It recognizes intent.
278
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:02,880
Here's where permission awareness becomes
279
00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:04,360
the make or break feature.
280
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:07,400
Every SharePoint site has its own tangled web of permissions,
281
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:10,040
teams, subsides, confidential folders.
282
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:13,760
A dumb crawler ignores that and accidentally surfaces HR grievances
283
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:15,320
in a marketing report.
284
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:18,280
The agenteGmodel, however, authenticates on your behalf,
285
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:20,600
inheriting your exact security context.
286
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:22,600
It can only read what you're cleared to see.
287
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:24,640
The output is trimmed by policy automatically,
288
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:28,000
security trimming, courtesy of Microsoft Entra and PerView labels.
289
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:31,240
So the AI's intelligence never outpaces its authorization.
290
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:32,800
Let's run a practical scenario.
291
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,640
And R&D Manager types summarize performance differences
292
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:37,840
of product A in coastal climates.
293
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:40,200
The planner divides this into subquests.
294
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:43,160
A fabric retriever prepares to analyze numeric sensor data,
295
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:46,080
while the SharePoint agent dives into internal research papers,
296
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,040
maintenance logs, and engineering notes
297
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,080
tagged with humidity-related terms.
298
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:52,440
It finds a 2023 field test report,
299
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:54,680
a discussion thread about material corrosion
300
00:11:54,680 --> 00:11:58,240
and a summarized findings document from the reliability team.
301
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,120
Each document is vector scored for semantic relevance,
302
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:03,760
retrieved, and passed up to the verifier agent
303
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:06,600
that verifier cross-check those qualitative results
304
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:08,040
against fabric numbers.
305
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:10,600
If contradictions appear, say, an outdated document
306
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,440
claims minimal corrosion, it flags the inconsistency
307
00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:15,360
and requests newer data.
308
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,840
The final synthesized answer tells the R&D Manager,
309
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,520
precisely which assemblies degrade in high humidity
310
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:22,080
and cites the validated sources.
311
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:24,440
What used to be several hours of manual digging
312
00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:27,120
now collapses into one continuous reasoning cycle.
313
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,400
SharePoint shifts from a passive repository
314
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:32,280
into an active participant in enterprise intelligence,
315
00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:35,120
essentially a neural memory of corporate decisions.
316
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:37,640
The agentic rag layer doesn't simply read documents,
317
00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:40,080
it learns relationships, project lineage,
318
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:42,400
authorship trends, contextual clusters,
319
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:44,680
and can thread them into coherent arguments.
320
00:12:44,680 --> 00:12:46,400
Now compliance officers may still twitch
321
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:48,160
when they hear autonomous retrieval.
322
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:50,520
Relax, every query and document touch is logged,
323
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:52,920
audit trails remain intact, regulatory frameworks,
324
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:57,320
such as ISO 27001 and GDPR depend on accountability,
325
00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:59,680
and this system provides it automatically.
326
00:12:59,680 --> 00:13:01,400
The agent can even attach metadata
327
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,600
citing the document path and access timestamps
328
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:04,840
to every generated phrase.
329
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,080
That means every claim the AI makes can be traced back
330
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:10,680
to a specific version of a file, non-repudiation for robots.
331
00:13:10,680 --> 00:13:13,640
In short, integrating SharePoint under agentic rag
332
00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:16,520
turns content chaos into knowledge choreography.
333
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:19,160
Your unstructured path becomes searchable by meaning,
334
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:22,400
safeguarded by policy, and validated by cross-reference.
335
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:24,520
SharePoint stops being a digital attic
336
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:26,280
and becomes cognitive infrastructure,
337
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:28,640
but qualitative context is only half the brain.
338
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:30,880
The other half, the numeric structured truth
339
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:33,880
lives within Microsoft fabric and that's where we go next.
340
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:36,240
Microsoft fabric, the structured counterpart,
341
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,880
welcome to the other hemisphere of your enterprise brain,
342
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:40,280
the structured side.
343
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:42,560
If SharePoint stores your tribal knowledge,
344
00:13:42,560 --> 00:13:45,280
Microsoft fabric holds your empirical truth.
345
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,000
It's the unified analytics backbone
346
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:48,680
where numbers, models, and event streams
347
00:13:48,680 --> 00:13:51,400
converge into something approximating coherence.
348
00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:53,960
Most organizations treat it as a data warehouse.
349
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:56,720
Under agentic rag, it becomes a reasoning substrate.
350
00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:58,760
Here's the role, fabric plays, precision.
351
00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,720
It doesn't speak anecdotes, it speaks telemetry, transactions,
352
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:02,920
and time series.
353
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:04,920
Within fabric live the lake house, the warehouse,
354
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:08,040
and the semantic model, each a different dialect of structure.
355
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:11,760
A fabric data agent built a top Azure AI agent service
356
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,200
translates natural language into structured queries
357
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:16,040
that traverse those layers securely.
358
00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:19,480
Ask, show quarterly yield variance for product A by region,
359
00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,440
and it quietly crafts and optimizes SQL-like query,
360
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:24,440
targeting the right tables and partitions,
361
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:26,760
executing against your authenticated context.
362
00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:30,040
No prompts, no power BID tours, direct governed intelligence.
363
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:33,280
Now, raw access to numbers is meaningless without protection,
364
00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:36,320
so fabrication security isn't an option, it's architecture.
365
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:38,680
Every interaction is encrypted and authenticated
366
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:40,280
through Microsoft EntraID,
367
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:41,720
ensuring that the agent operates
368
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:43,800
under your verified user token.
369
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:45,840
Remember the chaos of service principle shortcuts
370
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:47,640
that ignore row-level security?
371
00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:48,960
Those are banned here.
372
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:52,080
The on behalf of flow carries your identity end-to-end
373
00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:55,360
enforcing RLS and column-level security automatically.
374
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,200
If finance marks a column confidential,
375
00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:58,520
the AI never glimpses it,
376
00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:01,520
and every execution leaves footprints in fabric audit logs,
377
00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:04,400
satisfying auditors who treat logs as bedtime stories.
378
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:06,440
On top of that sits PerView governance,
379
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:08,680
sensitivity labels travel with the data.
380
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:11,760
Confidential, internal only, export restricted.
381
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:14,800
When the fabric data agent composes a query using such fields,
382
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:16,520
policies intercept instantly.
383
00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:18,400
Breach attempts trigger DLP enforcement
384
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:19,880
before a single byte escapes.
385
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:22,680
It's essentially enterprise-grade baby-proofing for AI.
386
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:24,760
The model can explore but not electrocute itself,
387
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:27,200
so what happens when we combine this structured discipline
388
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:29,160
with the messy intuition of SharePoint?
389
00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:31,960
The Azure AI agent service orchestrates it,
390
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:33,360
picture a court room.
391
00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:36,640
The fabric agent supplies the hard evidence, charts, counts,
392
00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:39,040
sensor averages, while the SharePoint agent
393
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:40,960
delivers the witness testimonies.
394
00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,040
The verifier agent cross-examines them,
395
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:44,920
ensuring the numbers and narratives aligned
396
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:46,240
before presenting the verdict
397
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:48,480
as a unified citation-rich answer.
398
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,800
Let's use an example and operations lead asks,
399
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:53,600
"Are we losing efficiency due to packaging defects?"
400
00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:55,320
The planner dispatches the fabric agent
401
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:58,200
to retrieve yield rates by production line from the warehouse.
402
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:00,160
Simultaneously it sends the SharePoint agent
403
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:02,920
to scour maintenance logs and supply correspondence.
404
00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:04,560
The fabric agent returns a dataset
405
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:07,520
showing minor dips correlating with humidity spikes.
406
00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:09,600
The SharePoint agent surfaces an email thread
407
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,440
citing warped packaging materials during the same period.
408
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:15,240
The verifier corroborates both, labels the correlation credible
409
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:17,200
and the system drafts a concise finding
410
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:20,080
complete with quantitative graphs and reference documents.
411
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:23,400
Instant, six sigma diagnostics minus the sleepless analysts.
412
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:27,200
Under the hood, the Azure AI agent service handles concurrency,
413
00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:29,080
batching retrievals through what's effectively
414
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:30,360
a microservice mesh.
415
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:33,480
Each agent publishes a schema describing what it can access,
416
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:35,680
fabric schemers, SharePoint metadata,
417
00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:37,400
or Bing's open web context.
418
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:38,800
The planner leverages that registry
419
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:40,400
like an API directory.
420
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:42,240
The result is modular intelligence.
421
00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,880
Swap or extend agents as new data domains emerge
422
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,000
without rewriting the entire co-pilot,
423
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,520
performance-wise, the innovation isn't bigger models,
424
00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:51,720
it's smarter retrieval order.
425
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:53,400
The planner may query fabric first
426
00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:54,960
to define numerical boundaries,
427
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,400
then use those to narrow SharePoint exploration
428
00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:59,440
that reduces noise and accelerates convergence.
429
00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:02,080
Think of it as data pruning through reason.
430
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:04,240
Instead of drowning in 10,000 documents,
431
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:05,760
the system knows which 10 matter
432
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:08,080
because the numbers already framed the question.
433
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:09,760
Compliance officers adore this setup
434
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:12,040
because governance scales with intelligence.
435
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:15,080
Every agent call is logged, every transformation traceable.
436
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:17,840
When the CFO asks, where did this number come from?
437
00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:19,640
You can point directly to the fabric table,
438
00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:22,440
the timestamp and the executing user token.
439
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:25,040
That transparency converts fear into trust.
440
00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:27,720
Critical currency in regulated industries like finance
441
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:29,600
or health care, combine these properties
442
00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:31,560
and you've built an analytical symphony,
443
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:33,480
structured precision from fabric harmonized
444
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:35,720
with contextual understanding from SharePoint.
445
00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:37,920
The enterprise moves from search and hope
446
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:39,920
to retrieve, verify, decide,
447
00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:41,320
and yes, the speed is startling now.
448
00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:43,560
Combine this multi-tier recall with reasoning
449
00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:45,560
and you get velocity, terrifying velocity,
450
00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:46,920
the research to decision cycle
451
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:49,040
that once required a parade of analysts
452
00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:51,040
now collapses into hours,
453
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,600
which leads us directly to the final movement.
454
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:54,680
Impact.
455
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:56,920
The enterprise impact from months to minutes.
456
00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:59,200
Let's talk consequences, the good kind.
457
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:01,320
When you upgrade from passive rack to agentegrag
458
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:02,800
across fabric and SharePoint,
459
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:04,640
the average enterprise timeline bends,
460
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:06,000
what took months of reporting turns
461
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,120
into minutes of verified synthesis.
462
00:18:08,120 --> 00:18:10,200
The AI no longer waits for humans
463
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:12,440
to translate questions into data queries.
464
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:14,400
It performs that translation, validation,
465
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:16,160
and summarization automatically.
466
00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:17,560
Consider R&D.
467
00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:19,640
Teams used to assemble cross-functional committees
468
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:20,760
to align on data.
469
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:22,600
Engineers exporting test metrics,
470
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:25,400
analysts cleaning them, compliance checking permissions,
471
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:28,640
and someone inevitably renaming files, final final.
472
00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:30,360
Agentegrag crashes that cycle.
473
00:18:30,360 --> 00:18:31,640
The planner orchestrates agents
474
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:33,240
that retrieve fabric performance tables
475
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,160
and SharePoint design notes simultaneously,
476
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:37,760
merge them and draft a validated summary,
477
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:40,520
complete with citations and security labels.
478
00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:42,880
Decision latency, nearly zero.
479
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:45,680
Compliance and audit experience similar shockwaves.
480
00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:48,440
Traditional audits meant emailing evidence packs for weeks.
481
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:50,640
Now, the same AI that wrote the report
482
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,040
can regenerate its reasoning trail on demand.
483
00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:55,280
Every retrieval call, query string, file path,
484
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:56,760
and timestamp is recorded,
485
00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:59,800
auditors can replay the exact steps leading to a conclusion,
486
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:01,960
transforming due diligence from a scavenger hunt
487
00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:02,960
into a checkbox.
488
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:04,440
What used to be a risk exposure
489
00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:06,200
becomes a governance jewel,
490
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:08,320
manufacturing gains a predictive edge.
491
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:11,520
Fabrics quantitative streams reveal process deviations.
492
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:13,880
SharePoint's qualitative notes explain causes.
493
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:16,880
The agente loop correlates them before alerts escalate,
494
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:18,840
effectively performing continuous improvement
495
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:20,280
without a six-sigma consultant.
496
00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:22,480
Imagine replacing a room of overworked interns
497
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:24,040
with a panel of expert consultants
498
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:25,920
who never sleep, never forget context,
499
00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:27,200
and never exceed budget.
500
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:30,200
That's the operational equivalent of compounding intelligence.
501
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,880
Of course, automation only matters if it's accountable.
502
00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:35,920
Agentegrag preserves every layer of enterprise inheritance,
503
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:38,400
permissions, sensitivity labels, and audit logs,
504
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:41,400
so CIOs can scale intelligence without scaling risk.
505
00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:43,520
Each insight is traceable to the user credential
506
00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:46,080
and governed repository that produced it.
507
00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:48,720
The system operates like a financial ledger for thought,
508
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:51,880
transparent, reversible, and tamper evident.
509
00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:54,040
And the human cost, reduced boredom.
510
00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:56,440
Professionals stop copy-pasting from exports
511
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:58,520
and start interpreting synthesized truths,
512
00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:00,920
meetings shorten because the AI arrives
513
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,360
with prevalidated evidence projects accelerate
514
00:20:03,360 --> 00:20:05,760
because data and narrative converge instantly.
515
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:08,040
This is the part most executives miss.
516
00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:10,640
Moving fast isn't reckless when the reasoning is documented.
517
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:13,320
The real recklessness is still building dumb co-pilots,
518
00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:15,080
single-shot context blind parrots,
519
00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:16,520
masquerading as strategists.
520
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:19,120
Those belong in the museum of early AI curiosities
521
00:20:19,120 --> 00:20:20,080
next to Clippy.
522
00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:22,320
So if your enterprise still celebrates a co-pilot
523
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:24,040
that only retrieves, congratulations,
524
00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:26,040
you're funding a fancy auto-complete.
525
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:28,160
The serious players are already using agents
526
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:29,800
that plan, verify, and act.
527
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:31,240
The regression from months to minutes
528
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:32,600
is just the surface benefit.
529
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:34,360
The deeper one is epistemic integrity,
530
00:20:34,360 --> 00:20:36,320
the decisions that actually reflect reality
531
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:37,800
because the intelligence constructing
532
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:38,880
them's held accountable.
533
00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:40,800
This is why continuing to build dumb co-pilots
534
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:43,520
isn't merely inefficient, it's reckless.
535
00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:45,960
The future of enterprise AI isn't bigger prompts.
536
00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,160
It's smaller feedback loops with better memory
537
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:48,920
and governance.
538
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,120
Agentech Ragh delivers both.
539
00:20:51,120 --> 00:20:54,800
Intelligence finally behaves like a system, not a stunt.
540
00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:56,240
Stop building, start thinking.
541
00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:57,960
Ragh without agency is obsolete.
542
00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:00,040
It's yesterday's architecture pretending to handle
543
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:01,280
tomorrow's problems.
544
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:03,200
The modern enterprise doesn't need chatbots.
545
00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:04,880
It needs cognitive infrastructure,
546
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:08,520
systems that can plan, verify, and act under your identity,
547
00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:09,640
not beside it.
548
00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:12,560
That's Agentech Ragh, an ecosystem of deliberate reasoning
549
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:14,480
built on Azure AI agent service,
550
00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:17,160
speaking securely to SharePoint and Microsoft Fabric
551
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:20,200
like a team of experts sharing one authenticated brain.
552
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:22,960
If your co-pilot still can't schedule its own retrievals,
553
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:25,480
validate references or explain its reasoning trail,
554
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:27,760
stop calling it intelligent, it's decorative.
555
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:31,320
Intelligence implies intent, verification, and consequence.
556
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:33,480
Decorative AI performs monologues,
557
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:35,760
agentech AI conducts experiments.
558
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:37,400
The difference is accountability.
559
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:40,200
One creates output, the other creates understanding.
560
00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:42,920
This architectural shift isn't optional anymore.
561
00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:44,840
The moment your decision spans structured
562
00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,960
and unstructured data, static Ragh collapses.
563
00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:49,400
Compliance officers already know it,
564
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,080
analysts already feel it, and leadership will soon demand
565
00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:54,200
proof of reasoning, not just confidence of tone.
566
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:57,000
Microsoft Stack finally provides the scaffolding.
567
00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:59,320
Azure AI agent service for orchestration,
568
00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:01,280
fabric data agents for quantitative truth,
569
00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:03,160
SharePoint retrievers for context,
570
00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:05,720
and purview governance sealing the whole nervous system.
571
00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:09,440
So here's your challenge, stop deploying show ponies.
572
00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:11,200
Build agents that argue with themselves
573
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:12,680
until they agree on truth.
574
00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:14,600
Experiment with multi-agent planning.
575
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:16,320
Test on behalf of authentication,
576
00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:17,840
wire fabric and SharePoint together
577
00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:20,000
until your AI can actually defend its answers.
578
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:21,320
Because intelligence without action
579
00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:22,480
isn't intelligence at all.
580
00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:25,080
If this explanation clarified more than your vendor ever did,
581
00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:25,840
subscribe.
582
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,560
The next deep dive deconstructs multi-agent design
583
00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:31,120
inside Microsoft 365 AI,
584
00:22:31,120 --> 00:22:33,680
how to make your co-pilot not just attentive,
585
00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:36,000
but sentient within policy.
586
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:38,720
Efficiency isn't magic, it's architecture.
587
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:40,560
Lock in your upgrade path, subscribe,
588
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:43,760
enable alerts, and let new insights deploy automatically.
