Eric Siu built an ambient agent that connects data sources to Slack or Teams, letting marketing teams query information and execute work without leaving chat. He cites Shopify and Block as examples of companies that could benefit from this unified approach to faster decision-making.
So the context is, you know, a lot of people right now, like Shopify as an example, they're talking about how they have this river that lives in their Slack, right? That's kind of an ambient agent that people can ask questions to and they get things done a lot faster. Jack Dorsey from Block likes to talk about the world brain. We call ours Single Brain, and the whole concept is that you have all your data connectors tied into your Microsoft Teams or Slack, and your team can just speed up things a lot faster in terms of getting the data that they need. Excuse me, and then they could execute a lot faster. So that's kind of the premise of this unified brain, single brain thing.
