Salesforce, the cloud software giant, has been remaking its business around AI, and at a small gathering in San Francisco on Tuesday, CEO Marc Benioff and his team unveiled the latest results of those efforts: an updated version of Slack, with a plethora of new AI features. The most significant of these is a serious glow-up for its AI agent, Slackbot.
The 30 new features, which will be available in the coming months, follow a January update that gave Slackbot agentic capabilities—including the ability to draft emails, schedule meetings, and sift through your inbox for specific information.
