La era de la IA autónoma ha llegado. McKinsey estima que la IA generativa podría añadir hasta $4.4 billones de dólares beneficios potenciales anuales, y los empleados que utilizan IA generativa experimentan un aumento del 40% en su rendimiento en comparación con aquellos que no la usan.

Los equipos operan con una capacidad fija y necesitan un sistema operativo de trabajo basado en agentes que desbloquee estos aumentos de productividad y haga avanzar el trabajo.

Slack is the best place for employees to interact with Agentforce. Learn how agents become teammates that take action in the flow of work.

The era of agentic AI has arrived. McKinsey estimates that generative AI could add up to $4.4 trillion in potential profits annually, and employees using gen AI experience a boost of 40% in performance compared with those who are not.

This has massive ROI potential and helps solve the critical challenge employees face every day — spending 41% of their time working on low-value tasks. Workforces are operating at a fixed capacity and need an agent-first work operating system that unlocks these productivity gains and drives work forward.

Agentforce in Slack brings all of your employee agents into the flow of work. In Slack, Agentforce becomes more contextually relevant, insightful, and accurate when tapping into public and permissioned conversational data in your workspace.

We’re announcing exciting new Agentforce features, where Slack becomes the central hub for your employee agents.

Pioneers of Change with Sohom Paul: Unlocking the Power of AI at Work

AI agents can be powerful, but their use necessitates the creation of accountability mechanisms and collaboration frameworks.

Trust in AI systems is crucial, and it is important to design AI systems in a way that ensures data security, content safety, and transparency. As AI agents become increasingly prevalent in our lives and workplaces, there is a need for designing AI agents that are accountable, trustworthy, and collaborative.  Establishing guardrails to control the actions of AI agents is essential to prevent them from overreaching or executing actions they have not been allowed to perform.

Originally presented at Slack City Tour London, join this webinar to hear an unbiased view from Franny Hsiao, Distinguished AI Architect at Salesforce.

Things you’ll learn:
- The role of AI agents in our lives and workplace
- Need for designing accountable, trustworthy, and collaborative AI agents

Work with AI and Agents in Slack to Transform your Work Success (Italian Subtitles)

The concept of “work” is going through a big inflection point. The way we work is changing. The current work environment isn’t working. Employees are overwhelmed by information and applications. Knowledge workers use 11 to 25 applications daily. This makes them feel lost and spend more time on auxiliary tasks than actual work. It’s hard for employees to be efficient and effective when they have to use so many unconnected applications.

AI has the potential to dramatically improve productivity and efficiency. In fact, by 2030, it’s estimated that 80% of project management tasks will be automated. To take advantage of these benefits, we need to do more than just adopt new technology. We need to change the way we work.

Listen in to this session from Slack City Tour Amsterdam, to hear from Mike Rawson, CIO of citizenM on how they use Slack across various lines of business, how the company transitioned property management systems in just weeks instead of months, and how Slack has played an instrumental role in the Value Driven Agile approach Mike has developed. 

Things you’ll learn:
- The current state of work and its challenges
- What is the potential of AI and technology in the future of work
- citizenM's digital transformation journey and use of Slack
