AI Ep 40: The Future of Meetings Is AI-Mediated

AI is already on your calendar. It’s sitting in your meetings, taking notes, summarizing conversations, and tracking action items.On the surface, that sounds helpful. But the moment AI enters the room, behavior shifts.People pause more. They choose words carefully. They hold back half formed opinions. The meeting stops being a real discussion and starts feeling like a performance for the transcript.AI is great at capturing everything. But that can come at the cost of openness. The issue isn’t the tool, it’s how we deploy it.If you lead meetings, set clear boundaries. Be explicit about when AI is recording and why. Create space for off the record moments where ideas can surface without being documented.AI can handle the notes. You’re still responsible for the trust.Bottom line: AI can make meetings more efficient, but the best conversations only happen when people feel safe to speak, not just safe to be recorded.Contact Us:Email: [email protected]: www.stringcaninteractive.comReach out to the hosts on LinkedIn:Jay Feitlinger: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jayfeitlinger/Sarah Shepard: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sarahshepardcoo/Buy the Revenue Rewired book: https://www.amazon.com/Revenue-Rewired-Identify-Leaks-Costing-ebook/dp/B0FST7JCXQ
