While getting ready for bed before the Academy of Management annual meeting, I used Codex to build an interactive dashboard for all 41 of the Friday sessions I had saved.
The dashboard grouped the sessions by time, location, and priority. It included a venue-orientation map and click-to-view session panels. Each panel showed the full abstract and linked directly to the official AOM Navigator record.
It was a cool planning tool. But the more interesting part was what it suggested about the future of information sharing.
The organization provides the data. The user defines the experience.
AOM provided the source data. I gave an agent access to that data and explained how I make decisions: what I care about, how I prioritize, and what information I need in front of me. The agent processed and displayed the same source material in a format designed entirely around my preferences.
That is different from asking an AI system for a generic summary. The value came from creating a decision environment that fit the person using it.
For organizations, this raises a practical design question. Instead of trying to anticipate every dashboard, report, or interface people might want, what would it look like to make reliable source information available in a form that agents can work with responsibly?
The organization provides the data. The consumer provides the directions. The agent builds the view around the decision.
The dashboard helped me strategize my session attendance. But, the bigger idea is that organizations may want to start thinking about how to get out of the "middle man" role when it comes to providing information to stakeholders. Agentic AI can now display information in any way the stakeholder prefers.
