Integrated chat beats standalone desktop apps for multi-agent collaboration
(Discord has comparable functionality and is in some ways easier, it's just b2b is often hosted on Slack, so easier to get work done that way)
when will people finally learn that @SlackHQ is the best agent interface
Some users see value in Slack as a platform for AI agents due to workflow benefits, while many others dismiss integrations like the Claude app as ineffective, overhyped, or poorly conceived.

Slack Vibing is the new Vibe Coding.
The basic idea is easy and v0 is a hackathon project. The product here is a lot closer to *it actually works*, for enterprise grade deployments, and after quite a bit of internal experimentation and iteration. It’s kind of hard to describe other than (per the post) it’s writing majority of code, it’s deeply integrated, multiplayer, and it starts to feel like everyone is a manager. So I understand it looks easy to dismiss on quick reading but it’s not some LLM Q&A with RAG over Slack, it’s not even OpenClaw adjacent, it’s a different way of working entirely, for people and teams. I work from Slack now.
i think this is the reason why the claude desktop app is behind codex, and it's totally fine, i think slack is actually a great way for "teams of humans" to interact with "teams of agents"

reason being anthropic team using slack, not only karpathy

btw i tried the slack claude app a few months ago, it honestly wasn't good. there's maybe a 30% chance i switch to Tag for anything (maybe debugs) if it's good enough for Anthropic production work then that's good, but im just underwhelmed by most slack integrations in general.
@GergelyOrosz To the CTOs in the audience:
@bcherny Slack as a shared control plane for coding agents is absolutely transformative
we built @Superconductor so you can do the same with Codex, Pi, OpenCode, Amp, Grok, etc
@menhguin i need a cheap hermes setup fr
@beffjezos @salomon_diei and @beffjezos, let me point out the salient bit of @karpathy's blather: whatever heap of junk they've bodged together, it makes "everyone feel like a manager".
Managers. The people who do no actual work.
@beffjezos CAN'T WAIT 2 FIGURE OUT WHAT BANDWAGON ARRIVES NEXT WEEK 2 KNOCK OVER THIS BANDWAGON
@beffjezos I vibe in Teams because two wrongs make a right, right?
@eliebakouch that actually makes so much sense for workflow management
@beffjezos finally, I can slack off
@beffjezos What's the CA ? @y0lloo slack
@beffjezos @salomon_diei @karpathy I'm not sure why persuading everyone to be like a manager is a good thing, @beffjezos, much less a "techno-optimist" thing. Managers are usually the least pleasant and least competent people around. Why do you want more of them?
