Salesforce, creators of enterprise instant messaging solution Slack, have announced a partnership with ChatGPT maker OpenAI to integrate the chatbot sensation with the platform and also bring more generative AI to it.

The new app built by OpenAI using Slack's platform tools is in testing and has a waitlist for people who want to try it.

Salesforce says that the integration allows for "instant conversation summaries, research tools, and writing assistance directly in Slack to help millions of companies work more productively".

Not only that, ChatGPT will help find answers to any project or topic directly from within the app and can also draft messages for users, helping them craft "replies, status updates, and meeting notes".

"The ChatGPT app for Slack deeply integrates the power of OpenAI’s cutting edge large language models into Slack’s conversational interface," said Noah Desai Weiss, Chief Product Officer, Slack, in a press release.
