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.

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.
If you’re meeting involves a screenshare or some kind of visual presentation, then video recordings make sense. That’s not every meeting, though. I can’t imagine many things being as boring as watching people talk in a meeting after the fact.
I think there are some opportunities in AI for completing tasks, but I also think there is a serious risk in taking action without proper oversight. I’ll be very interested in seeing how Microsoft gets this out to business customers.
OneDrive retention presents several challenges due to the variety of items that reside there by default. Share a file in a Teams chat and collaborate on it? It’s in OneDrive. Upload a file for Copilot to summarize, which will be copied to OneDrive. Meeting recordings and notes? OneDrive. Items from your local desktop and documents folders? Likely synced to OneDrive.
Use OneNote to store notes that you want to keep as a historical record? Yeah, OneDrive.
How do you establish a single policy to cover the retention of all these different scenarios?
