Smartsheet + Generative AI 🖥️

Arsineh

Hi there,

With new generative technology like ChatPT and DALL-E making recent headlines, we've seen a growth in curiosity and interest around what this means for each of us in the way we engage with the world, the work we do, and how we collaborate with one another.

Ben Canning, Senior Vice President of Product at Smartsheet, recently sat down to discuss how generative AI will enable Smartsheet users to be even more effective. Read what he had to say.

Artificial Intelligence is making a lot of headlines lately. Here at Smartsheet, we’ve been leveraging AI to help customers for a while now, and we’re pretty excited about how we can use generative AI to enable our customers to be more efficient, creative, and empowered to eliminate a lot of the manual tasks associated with collaborative work. In this post, I’ll cover how we’re approaching AI at Smartsheet, with a particular focus on new generative technologies, like ChatGPT and DALL-E. 

Using AI to solve customer problems is not a new idea for us here at Smartsheet. Our customers are already benefiting from it everyday - whether through the recommendations AI that powers ‘Suggested Items’ on the Home Page or the advanced image recognition AI that extracts all sorts of information from every image in Brandfolder, Smartsheet’s platform for Digital Asset Management. We’re even building custom AI models for customers to automatically detect things like logos to make their content processes even more efficient.

What is new is the class of powerful AI models, called foundation models, that can generate content largely indistinguishable from content created by humans. It’s these foundation models that are defining a new era of AI by helping humans perform a wide range of tasks with greater efficiency than ever before because they can generate content.  Continue Reading.

Hi Everyone!

My name is Brian Shin and I recently joined Smartsheet to lead our AI strategy and execution. I have been working as an entrepreneur and investor in the broader Artificial Intelligence market for over 10 years now. I am truly excited by the opportunities that Smartsheet has to innovate for the benefit of our customers. 

It was amazing to read through your answers in response to our April Question of the Month “How would you like to see Generative AI applied to help you do more with Smartsheet?” Many of your ideas are not only very thoughtful and exciting, but also line up with our own thinking. 

While we cannot disclose details around our plans just yet, please know that our efforts will be consistent with Smartsheet’s reputation for customer empowerment in the most responsible, secure, and privacy-compliant manner possible. 

We greatly appreciate your feedback and look forward to sharing more with you soon. 

Sincerely,
