Salesforce’s Agentforce ‘Digital Labor’ Revolution

Updated: 2 days ago

What if every team had limitless capacity?


At the Salesforce Agentforce World Tour, I built a Slack AI agent in less than 5 mins using nothing but my voice. No coding. No complex setup. Just natural conversation.


Having predicted the rise of agentic AI in 2023, it was great to see Salesforce's #Agentforce 2.0 announcement validating this transformative progression:


BOTs (2010s) ➡️ COPILOTS (2022-24) ➡️ AUTONOMOUS AGENTS (2024+)

#Bots: Simple, rule-based responses

#Copilots: #AI assistants that suggest & support

#Agents: Autonomous systems that reason & act


What makes Agentforce 2.0 revolutionary is that it represents the first enterprise-grade manifestation of true agentic AI. Marc Benioff dubs this the “digital labor” platform, allowing enterprises and teams to have limitless capacity to:

  • Autonomously complete complex, multi-step tasks

  • Reason over enterprise data with unprecedented precision

  • Take independent action across systems

  • Learn and adapt from interactions


From my work studying AI evolution, I can confidently say we're witnessing the birth of the #Agentic Economy. Companies like Indeed targeting 50% reduction in time-to-hire and Adecco transforming recruiting showcase how autonomous agents are already reshaping entire industries.


At JLL we are already seeing tremendous progress through our JLL GPT™ and JLL Falcon AI implementations.


The future I envisioned is arriving faster than expected. Are you ready for the age of autonomous AI agents?
