Online meeting platform Zoom this week announced a new meeting collaboration space with AI-powered capabilities that include a previously released “assistant” that offers post-meeting summaries and the ability to compose chats and email drafts.  Available through Zoom’s desktop app, its new Workplace collaboration platform includes the use of its Zoom AI Companion, which it released last September.  The AI Companion, enabled in the toolbar, uses OpenAI’s ChatGPT generative AI (genAI) features to perform tasks such as presenting a summary of a meeting, identifying action items, and prompting users to share next steps with key meeting members. The company’s new Zoom Phone capabilities also offer post-call summaries, voice mail prioritization, and task extraction, among other features.  In January, Zoom launched a mixed reality app that works with Apple’s Vision Pro headset to offer users a 3D representation of meeting participants along with three dimensional representations of media and design files.  For example, an animator or game designer could collaborate and share the latest character model via Zoom’s 3D object sharing capabilities.
