How Slack AI Agents Accelerate Dev Productivity | Samuel Messing

The AI Native Dev - from Copilot today to AI Native Software Development tomorrow

AI only becomes effective in workflows when it speaks the language of the enterprise.
In this episode of AI Native Dev, Simon Maple sits down with Samuel Messing, VP of Engineering for Search and AI at Slack, to explore how they are tackling one of AI’s toughest challenges: managing enterprise context at scale for 80% of the Fortune 100.
On the docket:
• why understanding context is critical for enterprise AI
• how Slack’s ‘AI Explain’ helps you make sense of information overload
• how to maintain high-quality work when things are changing fast
• why AI can only succeed if compliance and security are built in from the start
