Databricks just built an AI agent whose job is to tell its CEO the things nobody else will. On November 11, 2026, CEO Ali Ghodsi showed how its data agent Genie finds the stuff you are unlikely to hear - what is not going well - against the data a company already has. The number behind it is Dunbar's number, about 150 people: above that, people stop telling the founder bad news. A 4-step SMB playbook: name the number you fear, point an agent at your existing data, set the cost guardrail, and schedule the weekly one-page truth. Voices and content are AI-generated.
