We very need to be able to qualify and separate sensitive data from other data to share only this non-sensitive data with the AI.
This should be policy driven.
By this Domino would have much better opportunities as i.e. Mi***ft Cloud solutions in regulated companies or government infrastructures, who should not connect their sensitive data to any Cloud-AI.
As an external web user coming into our portal:
From the list of Document Databases that I can access...
Provide me with a list of rules for condition X (We develop rules for payment systems)
Summarize the minutes for the past 3 meetings of Group Y
Obtain the statistics for XYZ (Statistics are frequently uploaded as Excel Attachments in Document Libraries - or they are submitted directly to Domino databases).
As a Domino admin
Check over my domino server and give me a prioritized list of recommendations to improve security.
Go through Log.nsf and perform a health check - is there anything that needs to be addressed?
Go through Domlog.nsf and create a statistics report for the dates X/X/XX to Y/Y/YY.
Our server experienced a DDOS (or other) attack between Date X and Y. Go through the server logs and other facilities and check if everything is okay.
What is the state of our databases? Do any need to be compacted/fixed? Do they need ODS upgrades? Can you do this for me?
Mail is not routing. Can you please check our mail settings.
The http service is not working, can you check what is wrong.
What is the quality of our SSL? Is the chain okay? Is there something that needs to be fixed - and if so what and how?
Give me a list of users who have not logged onto the system in the last 12 months.
Write an agent to go through this database Server/Org Folder\DBName.nsf and for every Form = "XYZ" with the field "CreateDate" < 2020 change the field "Status" to Archived.
How are our Server programs doing. Should we be adjusting the times to prevent clashes?
Comment on idea DOMINO-I-2012: Analyse at least log.nsf in real time and predict server problems.
Use Domino IQ to establish workflows that you can either develop with an existing HCL DS tool or give to a developer for completion
Record a Sametime Meeting and distribute notes to attendees with the chair's approval -- internal AI is better than third-party for companies
Setup email automated response based on criteria -- existing auto-reply agents are unreliable and counter-intuitive (opened a few tickets over the years and gave up)
Load all of the standard Domino documentation plus online technotes to permit queries
Summarize all of the attachments in an email or DB document
Use certain criteria to select a DB document set and generate a new document or create a report
Run through version history on a document and present all the differences/changes, color coded with a key
Administrators to audit reporting and log analysis across the domain - which of my <n> hundred servers have more than three errors in the log in the last five hours;
Scan outgoing email for certain security criteria (e.g. no SSN numbers); usually caught with a firewall and a good backup; more efficient to scan it before it leaves the server or user's local mail.box file
Use AI to write pseudo code or actual code (option) given an algorithm and problem to solve (Take feed from server x and sort descending then display in report format through VoltMX Go displayed on iPhone N phones
Use AI to assist Swiftfile.
Apply AI also to the Designer Help. Nowadays I often visit an AI site to find for code and an explanation how to use it. Since there are a lack of development courses it makes it hard to find educated people. AI can help to get developers onboard with Domino. Also the Designer help search is very strict. 1 typo and you get no hits. Perhaps AI is les forgiving. Another pain with designer help is that you almost need to know what to search for. A simple question "how do I extract all attachments from a HCL Notes document with help of LotusScript" gives me a descriptive explanation what the steps are and it provides me example code. Designer Help nowadays would think I am stupid if I asked that question. From the AI answer you could point to the actual documentation as in the current help. So place AI in front of the current Help documentation. Would be awesome if you would made this AI also available on the online product documentation on your website.
Very good. Processing information in-house alleviates most of GDPR concerns.
1) Extract information from emails.
2) Extract information from documents.
3) In-house PDF processing (OCR and extract information, check validity)
4) Pre-write responses to emails.
I hope this is not restricted to Notes data? Notes design elements are equally interesting. Autocomplete code, check code on memory leaks, apply documentation for code, scan code for vulnerabilities.
We NEED OpenAI in our Notes/Domino environment. It's ridiculous that we have to copy and paste over ChatGPT documents whe we could be doing the queries and storing the responses in Notes. HCL should have been on top of this months ago.
Translate email on fly; and summarize the content.. answer with appropriate automatically... language support. Analize attachments...
It would be nice to have it in the domino designer too.
To improve code or help to write new code.
Additionally the possibility to use it for better searches in the domino databases.
The option to run locally, externally (openai, azure, google or perhaps another domino server) or not at all must be an option. So we don't get a huge java application or something starting up on the Domino server that increases the server specs with alot.
Remember also to implement so we can use this with custom application development in lotusscript, java, ssjs and perhaps @formula
I would love to see easy to understand developer interfaces for Things not really out of the box:
Example 1: Lets say, someone (Lisa) finds a Mail from someone (Marcus) in her inbox, and is wondering what she had done with his mails in historry ... (how many ended in Junk right away when read for the first time, how many went to folders (which ones? + a Menu to do move the current one to the same folder?) how many did lead to other Actions for Lisa (Maybe how many triggered a Ticket or an Invoice written, which Colleges are the ones involved to solve things last time, did something escalte or everything run smooth …)
Example 2: Lets say someone wants to have a simplyfied Page of Information of the Sender from the web (What is the Company of the senders Domain offering, is the Sender mentioned on this companies Website, which other Websites the sender can be found (and a way to configgure where to look - and where not to look) what are the senders skills according to his/her Profile in Xing or elsewhere. (I might want to look at hobbies, too, someone else not)
- This was ment more to show where this might lead if you enable us, than in what actuall requrements there are-
Example 3 (a Personal one) Maybe to big a tool for this, but: A design Synopsis that is not running into Memory issues all the time - and to put the AI in this on Top: Allow me to search e.g. for a Field Name, and get highlighted whereiever it is used (Forms, views, @Formular, the varius was it an be done in Lotusscript …)
(Of course I could have chosen to search instead for only a list of the Forms with an available Postopen Event or something - and clicking on one of the Resultlist would open the form in designer).
Search in documents and responses etc.
Additional usecases:
1) Let me use Domino IQ to create a new email (i.e. not just a reply to an existing email) based on my description of a situation. E.g. "Image you're a sales rep trying to sell product xyz. Your contact is a CIO of Fortune 500 company. Generate an email that should catch his attention covering these aspects...."
2) Let me use selected Domino databases as additional sources for Domino IQ so that i can then ask questions about the content of these databases.
Important:
Design the UI interaction model so that
a) i can have a continuous conversation with the AI. This is important so that i can e.g. ask the AI to make further refinements to the first version of a generated text before i decide to then take the result into a Notes form.
b) the interaction window does not block the Notes client, i.e. it's important that i can continue to work elsewhere in the Notes client while the interaction with the AI is still ongoing.
As an example take a look at how MS has implemented Copilot in the MS Edge browser.
I think that if this kind of implementation is done. Ai service neutrality is very important, so you can customize if the service should use openai, google, or other services including local deployed ai services. Also possibility to select that queries should be done from server or client.
Some of the ideas that can add into
Identify the Sensitive information and prompt the mail sender whether the sensitive information to be masked or not to ensure compliance
Analyze email content based on prioirty & urgency to improve the focus on high priority and urgent emails
Identify the business documents related information and alert the user to have any recent documents (names, amounts, dates etc.,) to be included as part of email
Adding the calendar events/meetings if meeting minutes has a action date along with Agenda
Generating automated customer satisfaction surveys, feedback forms for customer emails (if closure any)
Summarizing the lengthly business contract documents with critical information such as risks, milestones, key terms, obligations etc.,
Applying tags to organize the emails as needed in automatical way
Identify if any repetetive email content and suggest information based on previous email communication
These are great use of AI for mail. Besides that, I know a customer that use large document repository and would like to search documents based on similarities-not only similar words, but context (ideas).
Pretty nice innovation.
Add grammar and style check of text before sent as E-Mail.
