Thunk.AI Update for October 2024
Welcome to the October 2024 update! This release focuses on simplifying workflows, increasing AI control, and improving overall system performance.
Features
This section describes additional features that have been added and improved.
Introduction of Modules
A new feature has been added called Modules. A module is a logical collection of AI features that can be used by your AI to perform work against external systems. These features existed previously in Thunk.AI but there wasn’t a good way to view them or control their use. In the My Account settings (user icon in the upper right corner → My Account), the list of modules, their description, and tools can be viewed.
Modules allow for significantly increased control over your AI assistant. When designing your Thunk plan, each step in the plan now has settings to turn off both modules and individual tools within a module. This can increase the reliability of the workflow by limiting the choices your AI can make for a given step. The settings are part of the Thunk Plan → Plan Details → Detailed Instructions dialog.
Extract from Page
A new tool has been added to your AI to pull data from web sites and documents. Previously there was a tool that could search a document for a piece of information and it would read the document until the data was found and stopped. The extract from page feature will read an entire document in order to satisfy your request and return all the data that was found.
Improved Web Browsing
There was an existing ability for your AI to search the web, and this has been enhanced with a higher performance and more reliable version.
Improved Search and Add
Your AI has the ability to search the web and add items, but in the past, getting the data was best effort. If you asked to find and add 20 items, the AI would try but could give up early. Your AI should now track how many items have been found so far and continue to search until it has met the goal or failed to find any more items.
User Experience
There was a lot of focus on improvements in the UI this month to simplify the experience and provide more control.
New Account Settings Layouts
In the account settings dialog (Upper right account icon → My account), the layout is now a vertical list of configuration topics with the configuration details editable on the right. This makes it faster to find the setting you are looking to update.
New Thunk Settings Layouts
The AI Setting for a thunk also has the new settings layout. This layout groups related types of settings together for easier navigation.
New Export Data Controls
It is now possible to restrict the exported data to the properties related to a workflow stage. This can help export a subset of the data.
Improved Table View Filtering
There are now more options for filtering the main data table view. Based on the type of the column value, there are now more options for filtering.
Table AI Formula Status
The data table now shows the status of AI formula computation. A grey box indicates the AI formula is finished computing. A green spinning box indicates that the computation is in progress.
