Hey Cashflow crew!

Zoom is hopping on the AI train and wants you to get on board too. The video conferencing platform recently announced a partnership with OpenAI (the company that created ChatGPT), to feature chat threads, draft content, organized ideas and create future meeting agendas. With this collaboration, the companies hope to boost employee productivity and ensure they don’t miss important information in meetings. Zoom plans to roll out invitations to select customers later this month. Do you think this is creepy or cool? Reply to let us know!

Let's dive in...

• Seller’s Market: Many of the community questions and conversations revolve around growing and starting businesses.
