- Channel summaries and thread summaries: No more spending hours catching up on unread group messages, because Slack AI is here to make channel recaps quick and easy. This feature will allow users to get a “quick overview of what’s happening.” It will help you catch up on all the necessary details and provide you with a detailed summary of the thread. Summaries will provide users with “the gist of a long conversation.” Additionally, Slack AI also helps users find the right person to respond to.
Slack AI will also work on integrated third-party apps to get summaries of various relevant apps. The Verge reported that Slack is also working on creating its own AI chatbot, Einstein Copilot, which will help users write appropriate and professional messages. Also note that Slack AI features are only available to Slack Enterprise users.
