BREAKING: @brlands is joining OpenAI as VP of Global Partnerships

After 14 years at @salesforce, I’m joining @OpenAI as VP of Global Partnerships. It’s been an honor and a privilege leading the ecosystem at @salesforce and @SlackHQ and working with incredible people day in day out for more than a decade. Salesforce is an amazing and unique company to work for - I highly recommend it! Thank you to @Benioff and the amazing executives over the years for the opportunity to be part of this special place.

Workspace agents can work across tools—pulling context from docs, email, chats, code, and systems, and taking approved actions like updating @Linear issues, creating docs, or sending messages. In @SlackHQ, agents can jump into a thread, understand what’s needed, pull the right context, help resolve the issue, and update the right systems. They can also keep going in the background or on a schedule, while you’re away.

Just bought a $9.17 iced coffee and the barista handed me a straw from underneath the counter like it was a mango flavored Juul pod

Absolutely love this. We have been running Skyflow on Slack with a channel for every opportunity. It's the best thing ever. Now, you can do it out of the box.

Slack is going to be the interface for AI in the enterprise. And Perplexity Computer fits in very naturally into that interface. The next multi billion dollar and trillion dollar companies are all running on Slack and will see more tasks delegated to AIs than humans.

Perpelxity employees have been using Computer in Slack for the last 6 weeks and it has profoundly improved how we operate

We're building the best AI community in the world — entirely inside Slack. 75% of members engage every single week. Engineers and leaders from AWS, Google, Disney, Anthropic, Meta, Citi, and more — all in one workspace, sharing what actually works. So we did something a little crazy. We wrote our own Slack customer story — before Slack even knew we existed. And we did the whole thing live, on camera, using AI. One session. Claude Code open. No script. We researched Slack's actual case study format, wrote the full article to match it, spun up AI agents to audit it from three different perspectives — a Slack employee, a tech executive, and a community member — then took their feedback, revised the piece, and shipped it to production. The result? A full customer story, live on our site, formatted and ready for Slack's editorial team to pick up. They just don't know it's there yet. This is what building with AI actually looks like — a real deliverable, start to finish, with the cameras rolling.
