Why taking notes still matters
AI tools have radically changed note taking. All you need to do is record/transcribe your meeting and your favourite AI tool will write your notes for you. Magic!

After all, why write notes if the AI generated notes in Microsoft Teams are going to be more comrehensive and complete with no effort required on your part?
