An upcoming update to Google Meet will allow users to automatically grade and summarize their video calls. Google is a leading provider of video calling and meeting solutions. With its “Google Meet” feature, the company is used by many professionals to organize long-distance meetings or presentations. But if there is another point in which Google has invested massively in recent years, it is artificial intelligence. Google Meet is no exception and the tool will soon be equipped with a feature very practical: automatic note-taking during your calls. © Google During a video call with Google Meet, a new button will soon appear. By clicking on this little magic wand icon, it will be possible to start the Gemini AI assistant and automatically take notes of your meeting. The assistant will also be able to remember any URL links that you send on the meeting chat to add them to the notes, but also record your discussions in audio format to find them later. Google indicates that this new feature will be very useful for finding the essentials of meetings, but also for latecomers who will be able to access a summary of all the discussions they may have missed before joining the call. Unveiled at a conference in 2023, this Google Meet feature is scheduled to be rolled out massively around September 10, 2024. It will only be available in English when it is released, but Google has already shown that its AI-based solutions are gradually refined before opening up to more languages.
