Slack can now vibe-code interactive charts and reports inside chats

Slack 现在支持在聊天中通过“氛围编程”生成交互式图表和报告

A new feature coming to Slack will allow you to build interactive reports, polls, dashboards, presentations, microsites, and other tools directly inside a chat. With Slackforce Surfaces, you can describe to Slackbot what you need, and it will use AI to gather information from relevant conversations and connected apps, like Google Drive or Salesforce, to create it.

Slack 即将推出一项新功能，允许用户直接在聊天窗口内构建交互式报告、投票、仪表板、演示文稿、微型网站及其他工具。通过 Slackforce Surfaces，你只需向 Slackbot 描述你的需求，它便会利用 AI 从相关对话和已连接的应用（如 Google Drive 或 Salesforce）中收集信息并生成相应内容。

Once Slackbot creates a Surface, you can share it with colleagues and pin it to channels, allowing other people to view it, interact with it, and leave comments. In one example shared by Slack, a user asks Slackbot for help creating an arcade-themed visualization of AI token usage. The AI assistant then generates an interactive dashboard showing token usage across different divisions, such as sales, design, and engineering.

一旦 Slackbot 创建了 Surface，你就可以将其分享给同事并固定在频道中，方便他人查看、交互和发表评论。在 Slack 分享的一个示例中，用户要求 Slackbot 帮助创建一个以街机为主题的 AI Token 使用情况可视化图表。随后，该 AI 助手生成了一个交互式仪表板，展示了销售、设计和工程等不同部门的 Token 使用情况。

“You’re not exporting your data to some other tool to make sense of it, you’re asking Slackbot to build the dashboard, the deck, the report right where the conversation already is, and your whole team can act on it together,” Ryan Gavin, Slack’s chief marketing officer, tells The Verge in an email.

Slack 首席营销官 Ryan Gavin 在给 The Verge 的邮件中表示：“你无需将数据导出到其他工具进行分析，而是直接在对话发生的地方让 Slackbot 构建仪表板、演示文稿或报告，整个团队都可以基于此共同协作。”

This update comes just months after Slack overhauled Slackbot to make the tool more like an AI assistant, allowing it to summarize information across channels, sort through messages, and find time to schedule meetings. It also added collaborative vibe coding channels last month.

此次更新距离 Slack 对 Slackbot 进行全面升级仅过去数月。此前的升级使该工具更像一个 AI 助手，能够跨频道总结信息、整理消息并协调会议时间。此外，Slack 上个月还增加了协作式“氛围编程”（vibe coding）频道。

It seems like there are many other ways to use Surfaces, too, like building a live dashboard for a customer support queue that other workers can view, or creating a weather-themed financial forecast that pulls in data from connected apps. Slack notes that the feature will only pull information that you’ve given its AI tools permission to access.

Surfaces 的用途似乎非常广泛，例如为客户支持队列构建一个供其他员工查看的实时仪表板，或者创建一个从已连接应用中提取数据的天气主题财务预测表。Slack 指出，该功能仅会提取你已授权其 AI 工具访问的信息。

Slackforce Surfaces is available to all customers — including those who use it for free — with Slackbot enabled in their workspace. You’ll be able to use it with live data starting in October.

Slackforce Surfaces 现已向所有客户开放（包括免费版用户），前提是工作区已启用 Slackbot。从 10 月起，你将能够使用实时数据体验该功能。
