AI Assistants For Every Worker?

You may be familiar with Bixby. Get ready to meet Xena, the workplace AI office assistant designed to take all the mundane tasks off your To-Do List. The idea is a part of the Xembly platform (itself billed as an "Automated Chief of Staff"), a new start-up led by some industry heavyweights like Pete Christothoulou from Marchex, Jason Flaks from Microsoft, and Peter Francis from Qualtrics. It has backing from the likes of Lightspeed Venture Partners, DocuSign founder Tom Gonser, and former Microsoft CXO Julie Larson-Green. That's why you should probably get ready for it – with that sort of backing, it'll be finding its way into your business eventually, even if it's not quite as soon as you might like.
