Databricks ships Genie Ontology: agents answer 91% of benchmark runs correctly, versus 58% for the best frontier agent
Databricks announced general availability of Genie Ontology, a layer of enterprise business context that agents learn automatically and people govern. Enterprise ontologies were previously built and maintained by specialists, covering only a narrow slice of the business and going stale quickly; Genie Ontology extracts reusable ontology snippets from dashboards, SQL queries, notebooks and semantic models, then ranks them by authority before handing context to an agent. On a benchmark built with Turing around a fictional UK energy supplier, Genie drawing on the ontology answered correctly in 91% of runs, against 45% and 58% for two frontier agents.
