The Zoom AI Companion, which has been approved by the CERN Data Privacy Office, is now enabled for use within CERN's Zoom account. This powerful tool is designed to enhance meeting experiences and boost productivity through artificial intelligence. Let's explore the key features available to CERN users:

Meeting Summary: Never Miss a Beat

The Meeting Summary feature provides concise, AI-generated summaries of discussions, as well as a record of key decisions and action items. This allows participants to engage more fully in conversations without the need for extensive note taking.

• Time-saving: quickly grasp meeting outcomes without having to rewatch recordings

• Enhanced focus: concentrate on discussions, knowing that important details will be captured

• Improved collaboration: easily share summaries with absent team members.

Note: In hybrid settings, the identification of speakers may be less accurate, so always review AI-generated content carefully before sharing.

In-meeting Questions: Your Personal Meeting Assistant while a meeting is in progress

This feature allows users joining a meeting after it has started to quickly catch up on discussions they have missed by asking preset or customised questions about the meeting's content.

• Instant catch-up: get up to speed without interrupting the flow of the meeting

• Personalised information: quickly find out if specific topics or your name were mentioned

• Enhanced participation: contribute confidently even if you missed parts of the meeting.

This feature supports over 30 languages and is controlled and managed by meeting hosts.

Smart Recording: Intelligent Insights from Your Meetings

Smart Recording transforms cloud recordings into a powerful knowledge base by organising content into smart chapters, providing concise highlights and identifying action items.

• Organised content: easily find information about specific topics within lengthy recordings

• Quick review: get the essence of a meeting through highlights and summaries

• Actionable outcomes: clearly identify tasks and responsibilities after a meeting.

Zoom commits to not using customers’ content to train its AI models, thereby ensuring data privacy.

Team Chat Features

Team Chat Summary condenses long conversations, allowing users to grasp the main points efficiently. Team Chat Compose assists in drafting messages, generating responses and crafting new messages to save time and improve the effectiveness of communication.

Conclusion: Embracing the Future of Collaboration at CERN

The Zoom AI Companion features at CERN are designed to streamline workflows, enhance productivity and foster more effective collaboration. By leveraging its intelligent tools, users can save time, improve their meeting experience and focus on their work at CERN.
