Zoom, leaning into generative AI, rebranded existing -- and introduced new -- AI features to power apps across its ecosystem.

Also starting next spring, the Al Companion will give "real-time feedback’ on people’s presence in meetings plus coaching on their conversational and presentation skills.

Fuck that. Zoom should just be a video conference app, not a baby sitter.

Maybe I’m wrong but I think the “presence” part is like “how’s my presence as I’m speaking right now?” At least from the context that’s what I’m reading. More of a coaching feature and like “you’re not pausing enough, or too much.”

But honestly it could be either.

I am just picturing Zooms equivalent of Clippy.
