🤝IN PARTNERSHIP WITH HUGO

Is your AI just responding, or actually taking action? 

In customer support, most AI tools just reply or deflect tickets. That’s not what Hugo does.

Hugo is a true AI agent optimized for SaaS support. It connects to your tools and takes action directly, like fetching invoices, checking orders, updating accounts, and even pulling real-time data such as stock availability.

One team saved $28,000 per year by letting Hugo handle repetitive requests instead of their support agents. That means repetitive tickets are handled, resolutions are faster, and more time for your team to focus on complex conversations.

And yes, it’s secure.

Hugo verifies customer identity directly inside the conversation, so sensitive actions can be handled safely without sending users elsewhere. It runs on Crisp, a customer support platform trusted by global teams, with millions of users interacting every month.

Let Hugo do the work, try it for free, no credit card required.

Zhipu AI Launches GLM-5V-Turbo for Vision-to-Code Execution in AI Agents

Intelligence: Zhipu AI released GLM-5V-Turbo, a vision-language coding model using Native Multimodal Fusion to directly process images, videos, and document layouts for code generation, optimized for OpenClaw and Claude Code workflows with 30+ Task Joint Reinforcement Learning balancing visual and programming capabilities.

  • GLM-5V-Turbo uses CogViT vision encoder and Multi-Token Prediction (MTP) architecture to maintain a 200K context window and support up to 128K output tokens, enabling processing of extensive documentation and video recordings while generating code for repository-scale tasks.

  • The model employs 30+ Task Joint Reinforcement Learning across STEM reasoning, visual grounding, video analysis, and tool use to prevent the 'see-saw effect' where improving visual recognition typically degrades programming logic.

  • Native Multimodal Fusion enables direct "Vision-to-Code" execution without intermediate text descriptions, allowing the model to interpret visual layouts, GUI designs, and screenshots directly for grounded code suggestions in Claude Code workflows.

  • GLM-5V-Turbo is specifically integrated for OpenClaw, an open-source GUI agent framework, enabling automated environment deployment, development, and analysis through visual design draft interpretation and document layout understanding.

  • Performance is validated through specialized benchmarks including CC-Bench-V2 for multimodal coding across repository-level tasks, ZClawBench for OpenClaw agent scenarios, and ClawEval for multi-step execution and environment interaction, demonstrating SOTA performance on agentic leaderboards.

Americans Show Surprising Openness to AI Bosses in New Quinnipiac Survey

Intelligence: A Quinnipiac University poll found that 15% of Americans would accept an AI program as their direct supervisor handling task assignment and scheduling, reflecting growing adoption of AI in management roles as companies deploy automated workflows replacing middle management and management layers.

  • The survey of 1,397 American adults conducted March 19-23, 2026 revealed that while the majority oppose AI supervisors, acceptance is growing, with companies like Workday deploying AI agents to file and approve expense reports, and Amazon replacing middle management layers with AI workflows.

  • 70% of survey respondents believe AI advances will decrease job opportunities overall, with 30% of employed Americans either very or somewhat concerned that AI will make their specific role obsolete, reflecting widespread job security anxiety.

  • Companies are using AI to replace management layers in what some call "The Great Flattening," with examples including Uber engineers building an AI model of CEO Dara Khosrowshahi to field pre-meeting pitches and Amazon laying off thousands of managers as AI assumes supervisory functions.

  • Beyond direct supervision, AI is automating expense management, scheduling, task assignment, and other administrative responsibilities traditionally handled by middle management, suggesting organizational structures could eventually feature minimal human management overhead.

  • The trend toward autonomous management raises questions about future organizational design, with some discussing the possibility of "entire billion-dollar companies of one" with fully automated employees and executives, reflecting a fundamental shift in how work is structured and supervised.
