A few months ago, I wrote about people using AI Notetakers in Teams meetings. I’ve spoken several times about the privacy implications of recording Teams meetings, using Copilot, and related practices. One thing I’ve been encouraging people to understand is that, even if you host the meeting and turn off all AI, recording, and transcription…
Apparently, instead of purchasing M365 licenses and then additional Teams licenses, your M365 licenses will come in with or without Teams flavors.
Forgive me for picturing your MS partner with a headset asking, “Do you want Teams with that?”
That seems to be how we’ll be ordering our licensing in the future, though.
My best advice for recurring meetings is to skip creating an agenda in Loop. It simply doesn’t work unless you want a single agenda, and you never change it before the meeting.
We may never know if Microsoft is delaying this in response to privacy concerns voiced by its customers, but we do know that many customers had strong reservations about this feature. Yet another thing for law firms and other industries where confidential information is discussed in meetings to be aware of.
The first paragraph makes it obvious that you can’t be an unnamed guest in a Zoom meeting and invite your AI to take notes. That makes sense.
The second adds a requirement: you must also attend the meeting. No more sending your AI to take notes for you while you spend your time elsewhere.
