AI & The Culture IRL: Slack AI Integrations Demo
🎉 AI & The Culture Is Back — In Person at Salesforce
AI & The Culture is proud to host our next IRL event in partnership with Salesforce. This is yet another incredible in-person gathering, hosted at the Salesforce offices in New York City and sponsored by Boldforce. And we're doing a demo on Slack!
This beginner-friendly session is designed for creatives, educators, and professionals who are curious about how AI fits into real work — without needing a technical background. The focus is simple: practical AI, live demos, and tools you can start using right away.
💬 What to Expect
AI in Action (Slack Demo)
We’ll walk through a live, beginner-friendly demo showing how AI integrations inside Slack can support productivity, organization, and everyday workflows — from summarizing information to collaborating more clearly with teams.
Practical AI Tools for Real Life
Our Slack rep will share additional examples of how creators and innovators are using accessible AI tools to support storytelling, creative work, and daily execution.
Community & Conversation
Connect with Black and Brown creatives, technologists, and educators who are exploring how AI can support — not replace — our work, values, and culture.
