It pulls directly from your past conversations and both external and internal content, like internal articles, dev docs, and your public-facing help articles.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intercom.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Fin-AI-Copilot-Relevant-Sources.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">At Intercom, we have been beating a consistent mantra: knowledge content is the fuel that feeds the AI beast. This was always true of external content with the arrival of chatbots, like Fin AI Agent, and now it\u2019s also true of internal knowledge content with the emergence of AI copilots.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"start-optimizing-your-internal-knowledge-content-to-feed-the-ai-engine\">Start optimizing your internal knowledge content to feed the AI engine<\/h2>\n<p>Now is the time to invest in creating and optimizing really great, streamlined knowledge management. Not just external content, but internal content too.<\/p>\n<p>Here are my top tips:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Make sure your internal knowledge is accurate, clear, and understandable.<\/li>\n<li>Identify and fill in gaps in your internal knowledge content and keep it up to date.<\/li>\n<li>Make knowledge management everyone\u2019s responsibility in your company. Encourage folks from all departments to flag out of date content or missing gaps.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Investing in optimizing internal content compounds in value over time. AI Copilot is already generating real results \u2013 early beta customers are seeing a 31% increase in efficiency gains across their team. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.intercom.com\/blog\/guide-customer-service-knowledge-management-ai\/\">Invest in creating great content now<\/a>, and it will pay dividends quickly and over time.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Knowledge content is the fuel that feeds the AI beast \u2013 not just external content, but internal content too.
