Notion did it first and arguably better[1]. Shared agents benefit from shared context. The hardest part is ensuring that shared context is maintained and it converges on a representation of reality and the people in the company. [1] https://www.notion.com/help/custom-agents
In demo videos, it shows Memory under Files, so i assume it holds learnings and shared context.

#22I feel for the startups sweating each one of these frontier lab releases. How many more are thinking “am I next?”

Notion, as any other thin-AI product out there, is now in Anthropic/OpenAI/Google's crosshairs. Unless one has a moat the size of SharePoint or Google Docs or OneDrive, it's just a feature away.

I really like Notion's UI. I wish they would focus only on that and let me access my Notion DB as .md files with Claude.

#27Tried it to automate something that was on my to do list for the day. I had blocked off a few hours for this and managed to get the agent working reasonably well (85%) of the way there in The main remaining part is the poor docx / pdf / final output but will create a skill/workflow to get around that. Worked really well end-end!
Cool to hear, glad you enjoyed it! If you want to send any feedback on the output, feel free to send it to josiah at openai and I can take a look.

#29Without commenting on the product itself (I haven't tried it), the marketing copy around this release commits the same sins I have seen from Anthropic and Grok and all the rest of them. I'm so tired of seeing these companies trivializing other people's work! Nobody's job is "edit files" and "respond to messages"! People have jobs like "find and close leads" and "reconcile accounts" and "arrange student field trips" a…
Yes, work is being trivialized, but the symptom here isn't caused by that.

They have to be generic because it's a generic tool. If they write "this tool can arrange student field trips", people might ignore thinking it has a narrow purpose. Yes, work is being trivialized, but the symptom here isn't caused by that.
But the problem is LLMs can't do those things. All they can do is "edit files" and "send messages".
