Reading up on Slack

One solution is to train the AI to write like you. Specifically: 1. Ask your agent to assemble everything you've ever written. Docs + Slack + X + Other. 2. Then have it write a markdown profile on you, your style and beliefs. 3. Then when it writes, ask it to pull specific words and phrases from what you've written in the past. HT @rwitoff

A few updates to scheduled tasks in ChatGPT Work on web and mobile: Plus and Pro users can now set tasks to respond when something changes in Slack, Gmail, and Github, rather than just run on a set schedule. We’re also rolling out scheduled tasks in ChatGPT to Free users, who can create up to three tasks. You can also now share your favorite tasks for others to customize and use.

Here's how I'm running my $4M/year SaaS with a $260/month executive team of Grok Bots: Inbox Triage - is logged into my email, Facebook, X, LinkedIn. It ignores/closes all emails and DMs that don't need a reply from me. It opens an inbox item in Trello with a link to the email or DM if it needs a reply. Assistant - helps me plan my day and week schedule. Has access to my calendar. I chat back and forth to plan out fitting lunch, gym, meetings, handling my inbox, and "creative time" boxes into my day. COO - is logged into Intercom and Slack to give me a report on any customer requests or project deadlines slipping. Daily News - summary of news for each of my stock investments ($RIVN, $QXO, $FLUT, $CHTR, and $TINY.TO), the latest Reddit or social media thing going viral in my business niche which is Ubiquiti stuff. CMO - this one hasn't been useful tbh because I don't trust it to give it access to social media accounts, blog, or website and as a thought partner it's not very intelligent. It seems to me that Grok Bots are for actually doing things, Grok direct is still best for strategy and thinking through ideas. CISO - I put it in a group chat with all the other bots and they were given instructions on what not to do by the CISO bot for security purposes. CFO - I give it access to QuickBooks, ProfitWell, and our internal reporting dashboards then ask it questions and bounce ideas. They're all running around logged into my accounts via a web browser in the Grok Bot provided VM. Zero APIs or integration setups needed.

Don’t code alone. Slack Code is live. Humans and agents. Same channel. Same work. Launching today with agents from @AnthropicAI, @github, @Cognition, and @vercel. This is real multiplayer coding. See it at @Dreamforce #DF26

I've been tinkering with an AI to increase my “luck surface area” (basically, to find interesting opportunities that exist across my entire network) and the results are ... pretty interesting. Built on my corpus of personal & professional data - everyone I’ve met with, emailed, talked to, thousands of call notes, LinkedIn connections, emails, Slacks etc. Plus it does its own desk research on my contacts overnight (did that by itself without being asked, weirdly). Example - it suggested I introduce Marco (an insurtech founder, hiring for multiple roles) to Ben (an insurance headhunter I really rate). It pieced that together through a combo of Granola transcripts, emails, LinkedIn messages, and internal Slack messages. Powered by a social graph algorithm that scores relationships and potential intros - based on things like relationship strength, recency, communication style, and “likely-mutual-value”, etc. I left it running overnight, and it: > found people who have helped me with intros & advice, but where that help hasn't been reciprocated by me - then it suggested actions I could take to repay the favours > remembered that a colleague described her ideal mentor to me in a meeting *a year ago* - found someone in my network with the exact right experience, and drafted an intro > surfaced a bunch of insights about my own life - like a drop-off in social & fitness activity since becoming a dad(!) - and set up a local run club on WhatsApp The suggestions are… surprisingly good! And devoid of the usual AI slop. I talk a lot about luck surface area - putting yourself in situations where good things tend to magically happen. This is the first time I’ve built something that actually tries to increase that surface area for me and my network. I’m quite encouraged by the results, and it was surprisingly easy to build (with @claudeai, of course). Happy to share how for anyone who is interested in building their own. @bcherny

Today, we kill the AI agent and introduce the AI employee: Lindy Teammate. It’s just like working with a real employee. Everyone on your team can simply hit it up on Slack and get 10x more done. Lindy also keeps learning, and becomes the self-updating brain of the whole business. Live now:

I think a lot of people don't realize- if you connect a Claude Connector (e.g. your gmail, calendar, slack, etc), Claude Code will also be able to use them, including in Artifacts.

we're launching BUZZ! a new groupchat platform for teams of people and agents of all sizes, built to reduce our dependency on slack and github. model-agnostic, decentralized, self-sovereign, and open source. 🐝 https://buzz.xyz

10 months ago I built a paid community to $30K MRR in a few weeks as a side project. it's at $5K now since I went all in on Helply and basically stopped showing up for it. turned into a distraction vs. much bigger opportunities with Helply. Its' a dope concept though. think insider access to the co. weekly as we grow Helply from zero to 10m. 177 slack members currently. It will continue to die unless someone wants to run it. Would be down for a big rev share with the right person. You run it, get a big piece. could probably be $1M side project for right person.

Why we stopped using SDKs

@alvinsng

Every company I've worked at, product graphics were always a bottleneck. They're important assets because they help sell the value of the product. But what happens when the product is constantly evolving? I built a tool (inspired by what George Bugg started) where I turned all of out atoms/components into HTML so that anyone internally can create their own product graphics. Because we have amazing guidelines (shoutout Shivani and team) I was able to give it specific constraints, rules, and guidelines. So much more potential for this tool, e.g, product animation or creating demos. I even got a Slack bot to generate graphics without me even touching the tool.

Building recursive agent systems

@leerob

I wish Slack was: - Agent-first - Beautiful to use - Integrated with agents natively so your Hermes or OpenClaw lives inside it - Huddles worked seamlessly and were fun - Built for teams of 1-3, not just teams of 300 - Truly a second brain similar to Obsidian - Searchable without wanting to throw your laptop - Designed around async, not constant interruption - Voice first for mobile - A place where I could see who's working on what right now without asking anyone - Smart enough to know the difference between "I need you right now" and "whenever you get to this" - A workspace where my agent could tap someone else's agent on the shoulder and coordinate without involving either human - Designed so the new hire on day 1 has the same context as the person who's been there 3 years -Something that felt like walking into a room of people building, not walking into a room of people typing - A place where decisions are first-class objects - Able to auto generate SOPs, skills, agents etc from conversation history - Something that rewards deep work instead of punishing it with 47 unread notifications

We've added Plan Mode to Claude Code in Slack. When you give Claude a complex task it will ask you clarifying questions and show you an implementation plan before proceeding. pic.twitter.com/qAugPBEnLm
