today in AI:

1/ Slack’s first set of AI features is going live for enterprise users. @SlackHQ's new AI means less time lost hunting for buried information and more time getting work done. Think personalized AI-powered search, instant channel recaps, and thread summaries at your fingertips. Our summary: bensbites.beehiiv.com/p/slac…

2/ Disrupting malicious uses of AI by state-affiliated threat actors. Some wild stuff here. Know those state-sponsored groups that doomers keep freaking about? Well, some of them were using OpenAI’s AI models for shady cyber stuff and guess what? They got the axe. Our summary: bensbites.beehiiv.com/p/open…

3/ OpenAI is building a web search product in partnership with Microsoft. Just quoting a tweet we saw: @OpenAI’s supposedly got eyes on a smartphone, GPU factories, Agent OS and now web search. Either they are feeding friends at The Information wrong things or they are way too ambitious.
