"I'd just like to record this for the minutes". Minute taking was once a skill, knowing what to include, what to leave out, decisions made. Now we get long overly detailed minutes nobody cares to read, AI-generated summarised, and worst of all, meetings that are stilted and don't discuss anything because every utterance is recorded.

@fionabradley I'm good with this myself as the AI transcription options are pretty fab and pick up stuff I don't hear.

I'm minute taker for a meeting in a couple of weeks and I'll be joining in from another room, specifically so I can use the AI record and summarise options to aid in my minute taking. I say aid as I'll use the AI summary to inform my minute taking not replace.

@snail yeah it really doesn't work for me (if I don't hear I ask for repeat). Probably as I just have too many meetings and don't have time for all this overhead. AI has done nothing to free up my schedule. I do use transcription if I need translation.

@fionabradley one of the things I loved about the move to teams with covid is being able to hear people in meetings, I couldn't hear in person.

@snail hybrid is the worst of both worlds.
