Last Thursday, Salesforce, an American cloud-based software company, and Open AI, presented Slack GPT during their World Tour NYC event. With this new app, they have decided to integrate AI-based features into the popular messaging software, Slack, providing busy professionals with an even more convenient service. With ChatGPT for Slack the user can get instant summaries, crucial information quickly, and more.
OpenAI chose Slack as its productiveness platform above other popular service providers for many reasons. As OpenAI’s Head of GTM, Zack Kass stated, “Slack Connect has been a great resource for us, and has allowed us to interact with our customers in a very helpful manner. With our own technology implemented into this product, it has boosted our ability to connect with our customers and make their experience much more enjoyable.”
Noah Desai Weiss, Chief Product Officer at Slack, said about the massive opportunity for both OpenAI and Slack: “OpenAI and Slack make a great pair. ChatGPT app provides intelligence from OpenAI’s cutting-edge language models via the conversational interface of Slack. It caters especially to customers, as they are now able to quickly and easily access a network of knowledge and information. We decided to partner with OpenAI to bring new generative AI to Slack and provide users with more efficiencies.”
Salesforce is a top-tier cloud-based software company that specializes in customer relationship management or CRM, one of the most highly valued skills nowadays. It’s no wonder why they have chosen to partner with OpenAI as this integration offers many advantages for both businesses.
Zack Kass is a former engineer from Google and an entrepreneur from the Bay Area. As of now, Zack holds the title of Head of GTM at OpenAI. He has always been an early advocate for the productivity and communication features of Slack and is very excited about the possibilities that this combined system could offer.
