Google Meet will now use Gemini AI to automatically take meeting notes for you

A new Google Meet update is looking to help users focus on their meetings more than ever with the ability to take notes automatically.

First announced in August 2023, the new "Take notes for me" tool, powered by the company's Gemini AI platform, has finally begun rolling out to Google Workspace users now.

 
However not all video conferencing users will be able to utilize the tool immediately, as it will initially only be available to Google Workspace customers with the Gemini Enterprise, Gemini Education Premium, or AI Meetings & Messaging add-ons.

"“Take notes for me” is an AI-powered feature in Google Meet that automatically takes notes, allowing you to focus on discussion, collaboration, and presentation during your meetings."

The feature, which will be turned on by default, but can also be activated by selecting the pencil icon in the top right corner of the screen, will automatically capture meeting notes in a Google Docs file, saving it to the Google Drive account of the person owning the meeting.

The notes document will also be attached to the calendar event, meaning your colleagues or co-workers within your organization can also access them.
