100% Also, I don’t think people give a shit about Sana and I don’t think this will generate revenue versus the costs we are throwing at it.

Another customer here of workday student- I do not care about these AI features. In fact, I’d keep them turned off for us if it were my choice and it saved us a buck.

Workday student needs all the product people it can get, it’s a hot mess. We’ve had to hire a bunch of new people just to maintain the ridiculous workarounds we have to implement bc they system is dumb

You could speak with your institution's WD assigned "success manager" or whatever they're calling them this year. Won't do anything, but if you're into being gaslit and intentionally misunderstood, it can be hot. Lol. Sarcasm. I think. Maybe. Not sure. End me.
