I also scan Slack messages and never really read them unless they’re about food in the office kitchen.
The AI is paying more attention to your Slack messages than you are.
At this point, you should be able to ask, if you missed something important in the last few years. Is there any open conversation waiting for a reply somewhere?
Edit: if they use our data, they should at least give us some useful tools, in order for us to be able to see what personal information is out there ...
Not sure if you've ever used Copilot (I have it at work) and it offers the ability to summarize conversations and tell you what you've missed. I've used that a lot for high chatter conversations when I don't feel like catching up or I've been out. Pretty nice.
Yes, but only in my code editor, didn't use it with slack yet. Gonna try it out.
So are there muffins?
