Salesforce peeps: there's more to AI than Agentforce
Hey, Salesforce peeps. There’s more to AI than Agentforce.
Hard to believe, I know, but we can use LLMs for things other than building Case-creating chatbots.
Almost 20 years working on Salesforce now, so the ecosystem makes up a good chunk of what I read. And what I've noticed is that aside from "Agentforce", most of the AI coding chatter I see comes from people *not* in the ecosystem.
Meanwhile, outside the bubble, some level of vibe coding is becoming the standard for developers, myself and team included. I looked around to see Salesforce consultants differentiating themselves as doing Ai-assisted Apex, LWC, Jira ticket writing, UAT prep...
Didn’t take long. Because there’s almost no one leaning into it. Agentforce, Agentforce, Agentforce.
Y'all are so obedient to Salesforce's marketing directives. You can throw a rock and hit an Agentforce-certified Salesforce professional. Be different. Offer your own AI-superpowered value.
