AI Note Takers Are Increasingly Outnumbering Humans in Workplace Video Calls

AI-powered note-taking apps are being used to attend workplace meetings, sometimes outnumbering human attendees, and providing automated transcription and summarization of meetings. This technology is now integrated into popular platforms such as Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Google Meet, allowing invited participants who don't attend to access meeting notes. The use of this technology is governed by varying legal frameworks, with most states requiring only single-party consent for recording, while some states like California, Florida, and Pennsylvania require all-party approval. This raises important questions about the legal and ethical implications of using AI to attend meetings on behalf of humans.
