    How can it slow down? To get investment, every company has to at least claim to use AI. My company measures and ranks people based on their use of Gemini. It hasn’t made it into our performance reviews yet, but there is shaming for not using it. “Come on, we’re paying for it, make use of it”. I haven’t even figured out how to make good use of it in my normal routine. Which is legitimately 75% meetings. Maybe I need to send bots to meetings.

      Legitimately, bots for meetings is the one place where it’s largely useful. You can have it just summarize what was said. That and receiving emails, which people are using AI to extend for no damn reason so other people have to use AI to read them.

        It really depends on the kind of meeting or why the meeting is being held.

        I guess it’s fine if you are just being talked at for the entire meeting and there is no expectation for your input (but at that point maybe this meeting could’ve just been an email?).

      Gemini, please pretend to work for me while I do actual work. Be sure to generate stats that boost OKRs.

        People at my office have a bot attend meetings. AFAIK it does speech recognition and generates notes from the meeting. Sembly maybe? I’d have to look again to be sure.

          I suppose that is the ultimate test if the meeting should actually be an email.

          I mean it makes sense, just a little dystopian though.

            Any “meeting” where it’s one person talking and everyone else listening is really more of a presentation, rather than a meeting. I cant see an AI bot engaging in a meeting (in any meaningful way).

            Useful as a addional member to take meeting notes and provide transcriptions or even translations, but I don’t see how it can replace someone who actually has to converse with others in the meeting and make decisions based on information they bring to the meeting.

      Same where I work. Metrics are coming for how much we leverage AI. So annoying.
