- Ask Gemini in Meet will fill you on the details you missed
- It uses the Captions of the Meeting, Google Workspace Docs, Search results and more
- Accessibility from the launch is limited – English, desktop and business plus for now
Some Google Workspace customers will soon have access to even more AI tools within Google Meet, including an updated assistant who hopes to answer all your questions.
The updated ‘Ask Gemini in Meet’ AI assistant promises to summarize ongoing discussions and summarize what someone has just said, identifying key picks, decisions and actions – but could this create a new generation of lazy participants who no longer have to be so much attention?
Gemini will also help call the participants to catch up with everything they have missed if they join a video conference call late if ‘notes for me’ were activated.
Ask Gemini in Meet Now Available
Google’s new ASK Gemini feature will generate answers based on meticles as well as other Google Workspace resources that the user is authorized to view. Content from Google search and public sites also affect the results.
The company emphasized that interactions and answers are private for each user and that captions and meeting data are not stored after the meeting.
From the launch, only English -language meetings are supported, but Google has promised support for several languages ”soon.” It is also a desktop feature and it is not available in breakout rooms “at this time.”
All of this is to try to improve the effectiveness of a world that is still dominated by more meetings than we probably need, but Google is not the only company that adapts to the continued use of video calls.
Microsoft confirmed in a recent timetable input that it will lock web results, work files, e -mail and people to copilot to generate more insightful answers to team meetings.
The company also works with automatic summary of messages in chats to help users catch up faster, tracked separately.
Ask Gemini in Meet will come to Google Workspace Business Plus customers first with Enterprise Standard, Enterprise Plus and other accounts set to access in the coming months.
