BBC: Grandmother gets X-rated message after Apple AI fail. “Louise Littlejohn, 66, received a voicemail message on Wednesday from a Lookers Land Rover garage in Motherwell inviting her to an event. An artificial intelligence (AI) powered service offered by Apple turned it into a text message which – to her surprise – asked if she been ‘able to have sex’ before calling her a ‘piece of ****’.”

The video is long but does show you how to do it and what to avoid. Highly recommended.

WhatsApp is enhancing user experience with voice message transcripts, making audio notes accessible anytime, while ensuring privacy by generating transcripts directly on your phone.

Microsoft, thank you for Microsoft teams. For sending voice messages, can we get an option to let us tap once to record instead of holding down the button, which is in the corner of the screen so its pretty finicky and won't let me hold it down for some reason. if you need to make it 30 seconds max, that's fine, just let us press once to record please. Thank you.

draft - voice messages for google chat -

"To send a voice message in Google Chat, users must first tap the microphone icon and begin recording. Unlike other apps, users are not forced to hold down the microphone..."

this is the way. the requirement to hold down the mic button on screen is weird / unapproachable especially for some users. so the ability to just tap once to record makes more sense.

please can we have the option for all free users? thank you.

draft - Microsoft thank you for Microsoft teams. Can you improve the snappiness of the chat function? It's already best in class feature wise. One thing, with voice messages, maybe after we long press to record, maybe it should stay recording until we tap the button again so that we don't have to hold it down manually.

Microsoft Teams is adding a Slack-favorite emoji feature / The ability to add custom emoji and reactions will be available for Teams users sometime in June.

draft - Ok. Can we also get an option for voice messages to just require tapping once instead of pressing the button nonstop while we record? Can we get free transcriptions for the voice messages we leave.

Also, can we get ability for tap to create video messages from within the app.

Also, search inside individual conversations instead of just teams-wide search.

Also, ability to place conversations into a silent mode for 3, 6, 12 hours or indefinitely so that all messages back and forth would be silent regardless of the users/recipients phone status

Also, can the sending of images show more than just a 2x2 grid in the mobile app? Currently it shows 4 images and then you have to tap to see more. How about just showing 8 images or even 12 images in a grid of 2x4 or 2x6 or 3x4 etc if we want without the need to tap to see more

Also, Microsoft teams is better than iMessage because it works across all major platforms including iOS, Android, web etc...
