One of the biggest irritations for M365 users is recurring meetings set to run for years, with the organizer having left the organization. How do you get them off people’s calendars, or have them managed by another user?
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.

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?
