(Reuters) - Oracle on Tuesday released a new set of artificial intelligence agents to help salespeople with a range of tasks around dealing with customers.
U.S.-based Oracle is among a wave of big tech companies focusing on creating virtual assistants that can tackle repetitive or difficult tasks with more autonomy. Microsoft and Alphabet's Google have also put agents at the center of their AI strategies.
