Tech companies are taking the power of Artificial Intelligence very seriously. With ChatGPT becoming the go-to AI chatbot for many, other tech giants like Microsoft and Samsung are now following suit by integrating AI into their brands.
The company is further evolving its platform by putting AI at the forefront of its user experience. This will make it easier for users to communicate, access information, and build workflows.
With this new development, it will no longer just be a pure communication platform. Companies can now link directly to enterprise applications without wasting time switching between tasks. This integration of AI is set to revolutionize how we work and communicate, making it more efficient and productive than ever before.
It’s worth noting that while the announcement regarding its latest feature integration into OpenAI was made on May 4th, 2023, most of the features are not yet available.
Slack GPT; Generative AI, built natively in Slack
Rob Seaman pointed out that the communication platform has a unique advantage in generative AI because companies use it to transmit messages; hence a wealth of institutional knowledge is already present. This information includes messages, files, and clips shared daily, making it an excellent foundation for building AI models.
“For starters, Slack is going to bring AI natively into the user experience with SlackGPT to help customers work faster, communicate better, learn faster, etc. And an example of that is AI-powered conversation summaries and writing assistance for composition that’s going to be directly available in Slack,” he said.
Another feature is AI-generated content for its linked applications. This could make it easier to create content for Slack Canvas, which is a useful tool for businesses. While writing a simple message might be easy, this feature will be especially helpful for creating automated messages that are part of a workflow.
Developers will also be able to utilize the AI integration and build it into their workflows. This will allow them to connect with external applications and large language models to create customized generative AI experiences.
While developers can build custom integrations with a range of LLMs, the Workflow Builder with SlackGPT AI connectors will be available this summer, allowing customers to easily connect ChatGPT or Claude to a workflow or build their custom connectors.
