Navigation and conversation contexts

Why does Empatyzer ask me to choose the exact person or group before a personalized question?

Short answer

Each context gives Em a different set of relevant data. Selecting the exact person or group prevents the system from assuming that a name alone identifies the right person, which matters especially in larger organizations where names can repeat.

Without a selection, Em does not guess whom you mean; she points you to the right icon and the selector above the chat instead. Choosing the context is part of navigation, not a judgment about the selected person.

Other ways to ask

  • why do I have to select a person before asking Em
  • Em doesn’t know who I mean
  • two colleagues with the same name
  • Em asks me to choose a person
  • why pick a group above the chat
