 An AI assistant in an office would be much more helpful if it worked like a person. 1 person. 

For example I get an update from a client. I tell the AI that client X want to meet on this day.

Rather than each person in a company has their own assistant, it would be amazing if it was everyone's assistant. 

So if someone else asks it, when does client X wants to meet, it will respond with Tkay told me client X wants to meet on day/time. 

This central AI will become a data dump. instead of me telling everyone involved. I can just tell the AI. instead of asking people what's the latest, I can just ask the AI. 
 It’ll happen. I just hope it happens after Slack dies.

I hate Slack. 
 Why only in the office? Just create one all overseeing AI overlord. Things will be great! 
 Been noticing a couple times now that my zaps to you don’t show up. 
 Which client are you zapping from? 
 Damus. Zaps to other people usually go through. 
 Hmmm… I am receiving zaps from others. So I am not sure where to start troubleshooting. 

Also, zap receipts sometimes don’t work, but the zaps themselves go through.
