Meetings. They fill our calendars, eat up hours, and often repeat the same points over and over. How many of us have sat through multiple sessions just to rehash what could’ve been clarified the first time? If meetings were a dish, they’d be an overcooked casserole—too much in the pot with little value left.

Enter AI tools like Copilot: an intelligent assistant that records meetings, creates transcripts, and distills actionable tasks. Imagine an AI that listens, captures key points, and distributes a to-do list while breaking down complex discussions. This isn’t just convenience; it’s a revolution in reclaiming time.

Here’s how AI is transforming the meeting culture:

1. Streamlining Feedback Loops: Instead of enduring redundant meetings, AI ensures all questions are answered and unresolved issues are flagged. Missed something? The transcript has your back.

2. Reducing Meeting Overload: By clarifying points from the first discussion, fewer meetings are needed. Time once spent on repetitive agendas can now fuel creative work or team management.

3. Creating On-Demand Visuals: Picture an AI that not only takes notes but generates quick sketches, proof-of-concept visuals, or even project beginnings—right there in the meeting.

With this level of efficiency, AI might even reshape how meetings function. Imagine it raising a virtual hand to highlight unanswered questions or suggesting when it’s time to wrap up. No more dragging conversations just to fill a room.

The future isn’t just about smarter tools—it’s about fewer but more meaningful meetings, so we can focus on what truly matters. Let’s trim the fat and let AI do the heavy lifting. Who’s ready?
