AI summary

A specification of a condition to trigger detection of a specific issue of an information technology component is received. Computer usage data is collected via one or more computer agents on one or more clients. A portion of the computer usage data that satisfies the condition of the specific issue is identified. A prompt based on the portion of the computer usage data is determined. Using a generative machine learning model, a solution to the specific issue based on the prompt is generated.
