Quick A‑I roundup to keep you up to speed.


Meta expands Business Agent as an A‑I employee for customer work

What’s happening: Meta is rolling its Business Agent out more widely, putting an A‑I worker inside WhatsApp, Messenger, and Instagram.

What the agents can do:

  • Answer customer questions
  • Recommend products
  • Book appointments
  • Qualify leads
  • Support sales
  • Hand conversations off to human team members

Why it matters: This shift embeds A‑I directly into customer-facing workflows so companies can:

  • Respond faster
  • Manage more conversations
  • Tie chats into sales, service, and operations

That means fewer routine tasks for humans and potentially faster revenue.


Moda creates A‑I decks that do not look A‑I generated

What Moda claims: It can generate slide decks and marketing assets that match your brand so they don’t look like generic A‑I output.

Key features:

  • Learns a company’s identity
  • Refines designs over time
  • Keeps every layer editable on a real canvas
  • Exports to PowerPoint and PDF

Momentum: Moda raised $7.5 million from General Catalyst, Pear VC, and the founder of Dropbox — expect more polish in presentations going forward.


Practical tip: Use ChatGPT to make your website easier for A‑I tools to understand

How to do it (step-by-step):

  1. Pick an important page on your site.
  2. Paste the approved copy into ChatGPT.
  3. Ask it to produce a clear customer-facing FAQ based only on that content.
  4. Organize answers into logical sections: what we offer, who it is for, how it works, pricing/booking, common questions, next steps.
  5. Review everything carefully — do not paste sensitive information.

Use the result to: improve the page, your chatbot prompts, or agent instructions.

Remember: write for people first, A‑I second.


Tools to watch: Descript, DashVox, and other quick A‑I utilities

  • Descript: Still a slick all‑in‑one audio and video editor with transcription and overdub features.
  • DashVox: Focuses on voice‑control coding agents you can run from a car or a watch; connects to multiple large language models (Claude, GPT, Gemini).
  • Also worth watching: Tools that scan where your brand appears across those models — if A‑I is answering searches, you want to be on the map.

That’s our hit list for today. Stay curious, stay skeptical, and keep listening — we’ll bring you more A‑I news and practical tips next time.
