AI is incredible. They can teach you how to fry an egg and even write a poem, pirate style.

But it knows nothing about your work. Slackbot is different. It doesn't just know the facts.

Because Slackbot isn't just another AI.

It's AI that knows your work as well as you do.

I'm going to reread something. So I picked up Sunshine by Robin McKinley, which is my, probably my absolute favorite vampire novel. It's about a young woman who's like in her
