Hot off the presses! Check out Zapier's two new OpenAI updates: 1️⃣ Zapier is integrated with GPTs on ChatGPT through AI Actions. 2️⃣ We’re helping you bring the power of GPTs to your Zaps with OpenAI’s Assistants API—incorporated into Zapier's ChatGPT integration. What does this mean for you? ✔️ GPTs are OpenAI's first step toward allowing users and companies at large to build their own AI assistants—directly within ChatGPT's interface. You can create a fully customized version of ChatGPT that's perfectly tailored to your own product or company. ✔️ AI Actions by Zapier is a feature that you can use to get the power of Zapier's 6,000+ apps directly in your custom GPT. That means you can create automated, intelligent, and connected personal assistants that can streamline workflows (with more than 20,000 actions) across your whole tech stack. ✔️ We’ve brought even more actions to the ChatGPT app to support OpenAI’s Assistants API. Now you can write and execute code, analyze data on CSVs, and even upload documents like PDFs + CSVs—straight from your Zaps. Try it out today!

Our very own Jay Floyd, Manager of Data Platforms at Zapier, recently sat down with the team at PowerToFly, where he shared his remarkable journey from introspective childhood to life coaching. Jay's personal transformation allowed him to bridge the worlds of technology and human emotion, guiding others to bring their authentic selves to work. “Every piece of code, every data model, and every project has a human story behind it. As a leader, recognizing and valuing these stories has been instrumental in building a cohesive, motivated, and high-performing team. I’m proud to be a part of a team that celebrates our ability to ensure a team member’s undistracted parental leave just as loudly as we celebrate shipping code.” Jay also shared five ways others can implement a coaching-first approach.

The CEO of Netflix, Reed Hastings, wrote: “In all creative roles, the best is easily ten times better than average.” To capitalize on this idea at the company level, you must grow what Hastings refers to as your “talent density.” Talent density is the collective amount of talent held by your employees.
