Jack Dorsey is taking on Slack with Buzz, a group chat platform for teams and their AI agents
Buzz is a decentralized, open-source group chat platform developed by Jack Dorsey, aimed at competing with Slack and GitHub, allowing humans and AI agents to collaborate in the same conversations. It offers a unified workspace for teams and AI agents, integrating workflows from Slack and GitHub, and is designed to be model-agnostic and self-sovereign. While still in its early stages, Buzz provides a free desktop app and emphasizes self-hosting for security, but its adoption remains uncertain.
