Google Meet transcripts with artificial intelligence will automatically generate tasks for you.
Ironically, that represents one less task to focus on.
Google Meet has introduced an update to its note-taking feature, powered by Gemini technology, which promises to add more utility for teams using Workspace. Starting today, the tool will generate a list of suggested steps to take after meetings, including the ability to assign due dates and a primary responsible person for each task.
The original note-taking feature was launched last August and has been undergoing testing since then. To date, it has shown relatively positive results, with no major failures. Thanks to Gemini's voice-to-text transcription capabilities, the tool can distinguish between different participants and provide a fairly accurate summary of the topics discussed, although not always with complete precision. The summary is presented in a Google document that is automatically shared with attendees once the meeting is over.
While there are still reservations about using artificial intelligence in creative processes, particularly due to concerns about information privacy, some may feel more comfortable allowing AI to assist in note-taking.
This new feature will begin rolling out today, although Google has warned that it will be a slower process than usual, as the company wants to closely monitor the performance and quality of the service.
