For when you’re thinking, “This meeting could have been an AI summary.”
Another new Meet feature lets Duet “attend” a meeting on your behalf. On a meeting invite, you can click an “attend for me” button, and Google can auto-generate some text about what you might want to discuss. Those notes will be viewable to attendees during the meeting so that they can discuss them.

At its Cloud Next conference today, Google revealed a handful of new AI-powered features coming soon to Meet.
And when the meeting is over, you can save the summary to Docs and come back to it after the fact; it can even include video clips of important moments.
These AI-enabled features could be a way to free up people from being dedicated meeting-note scribes and make it easier to catch up both during and after calls.
Microsoft and Zoom also clearly think this is a good idea: they’ve rolled out AI-powered meeting summaries of their own.
But the recaps will only be useful if they can accurately capture what happened during a meeting, and given that AI is prone to making mistakes, Google might have a lot to prove to earn that trust.
“Now we’re spending that same deep energy we spent over the last few years to get to enterprise-grade to be the best cutting-edge video conferencing product on the market.”
