Gemini is going to work with Google Meet to take your notes

Meetings play a crucial role in facilitating these interactions, but they can often become tedious, especially when it comes to capturing important information. Recognizing this challenge, Google has introduced an innovative solution by integrating Gemini, its advanced AI tool, with Google Meet

This integration aims to streamline the note-taking process, allowing participants to focus on discussions rather than being distracted by the task of recording information.

Gemini is designed to enhance productivity and efficiency during virtual meetings. The standout feature of this integration is the “Take notes for me” functionality, which automates the process of capturing meeting notes. Here’s a closer look at how this feature works and its benefits.

Automatic note capture

One of the most significant advantages of the Gemini integration is its ability to automatically generate meeting notes. As discussions unfold in Google Meet, Gemini listens and records key points, decisions, and insights. 

This automatic note-taking feature ensures that nothing important is missed, allowing participants to engage fully in the conversation without the distraction of jotting down notes.

Once the meeting concludes, the AI-generated notes are stored in Google Docs, making them easily accessible for all participants. This seamless transition from meeting to documentation eliminates the need for manual note-taking, saving time and reducing the risk of errors.

Action item identification

In addition to capturing general meeting notes, Gemini excels at identifying actionable items. During discussions, the AI can recognize tasks assigned to participants and automatically create a list of action items. This feature is particularly beneficial for teams that rely on accountability and follow-up, as it simplifies the process of tracking responsibilities post-meeting.

With clearly defined action items, team members can easily refer back to their assigned tasks, ensuring that everyone is on the same page and that important follow-ups are not overlooked.

Meeting summaries

Another valuable aspect of Gemini’s integration is its ability to provide meeting summaries. Participants can access a “summary so far” feature during the meeting, allowing them to review key points in real-time. This is especially useful in longer meetings where discussions may branch into various topics.

After the meeting, Gemini compiles a comprehensive summary that includes the notes taken and a list of action items. This summary is automatically sent to all participants, ensuring that everyone has access to the same information and can refer back to it as needed. This feature not only enhances accountability but also fosters a culture of transparency within teams.

User notification and transparency

When the “Take notes for me” feature is activated, all meeting participants are notified through a blue pencil icon on their screens. This notification ensures that everyone is aware that notes are being taken automatically, promoting transparency and trust among team members. 

Participants can feel confident that their contributions are being accurately captured without any concerns about privacy or oversight.

Availability and Accessibility

Currently, the Gemini note-taking feature is available to users with Gemini Education Premium, Gemini Enterprise, or those who have the AI Meetings and Messaging add-ons. 

It is important to note that this feature is limited to meetings conducted in spoken English and is accessible via Google Workspace Labs for early testers. As Google continues to refine and expand this offering, it is expected that more users will gain access to this powerful tool.
