Trolling people's AI note takers

Kinda off-topic, but am I the only one who usually joins meetings five minutes early? I hate being late, and that way I give myself five minutes of peaceful troubleshooting time if my mic doesn’t connect, for example.
Always in exactly 2 minutes early. 5 minutes early always forces me to have awkward small talk with someone, usually the organizer.
2 minutes is great. 30 seconds to get in, 1 minute for mic/sound check, 30 seconds left not long enough to have more small talk than hellos.

Five is already pretty late for me. I'm in the meeting 10 prior so my status changes. Camera is off, I'm preparing for the meeting, but it's good to be ahead of the game.

Ahhh Google Meet. In the corporate world when we see a company using Google Meet we assume they are cheap and we will need to really talk discounts etc with them. It’s sadly normally true.
Depends on what part of the company you are dealing with - in engineering we're usually a bit annoyed when anything other gets used simply because meeting software clients for Linux are either shitty or nonexistent.

What do you do when you have consecutive meetings?

What do you do when you have consecutive meetings?
2 cameras, face to face. And you go to the movies.

You might have it turned off, but do the other participants?
No idea, but they have the option, just like me.

If the first one matters more than the second, I'll leave when the first one is done. If the second one is more important, I'll say "I need to prepare for another meeting. If there's any other business, email is best." and leave to be in my next meeting.

The communist presidential candidate in my country has a live interview in one hour. Just in time for the metrics work meeting that could have been an email.
This will be fun.

I like how AI note takers are basically converting the useless act of a meeting into an email because an email is a better product that someone can reference.
If you meeting needs to be converted into an email to make it useful maybe you should just write more emails and have fewer meetings.

Funny. In the tech world we see zoom vs google meet as zoom is for people who have exclusively soft skills I don't want to talk to anyway. When I see a google meeting I know I'm going to be talking to someone useful.

using an ai for inside meeting is totally safe and secure, and totally not a gdpr nightmare
I work for a company that must remain gdpr compliant, and when joining (ms teams) meetings you can't unmute your mic or share content without agreeing to a massive AI waiver.

If it can be summarized into an email without anyone else's input, it was a bad meeting and should've been a mail to start with. A good meeting is not about transferring freely available info, but about discussion and decision making.

Sounds like a great reason not to use it.

I never accept the terms. If people ask why I'm not talking I write "I can't accept the AI conditions" in the meeting chat.

Nice, I assume most people would get annoyed though.
