Atlas AI - Clearer and Real-Time Explanation of AI Answers

Improve how the AI explains its answer to the final user.

Today, users may receive a result without clearly understanding how the AI reached that conclusion or which information was considered.

The proposed improvement is to provide a simple and user-friendly explanation that shows:

  • What information was used to generate the answer.

  • The main steps the AI followed.

  • Progress while the answer is being prepared.

  • A short explanation of why the AI reached that result.

  • References or sources used, when available.

The explanation should use simple, user-friendly language and avoid technical terms. It should also be provided in real time, using a streaming experience, so the user can follow the main reasoning steps while the answer is being generated instead of waiting until the end.

This would help users better understand the answer, increase trust in the AI, and make it easier to validate the result.

Hi ​@Leonardo Maia Barbosa ,

Good to see you around the community!

You can submit this suggestion as a Product Idea, where it can be reviewed by the Cognite team and considered for the product backlog.

I know the team is already working on AI observability, and improvements around transparency and explainability are certainly relevant to this area. Your suggestion brings up some interesting points about helping users better understand AI-generated answers, including the information behind them, the reasoning behind the results, and the sources used.

Thanks for sharing your ideas with the community.

I'm sure this is a valuable topic to explore further!
