Zoom also released deepfake detection tools for meetings.
Productivity tools are only ramping up their AI features.
Zoom went beyond video conferencing to begin its AI-powered workplace play with the launch of Zoom Docs in 2023. The tech company is now moving beyond Docs to a more Google-like suite with two new features: AI Slides and AI Sheets.
Undergirding Zoom's Docs, Slides, and Sheets offerings is AI Companion, the company's multitool work assistant, through which users can create the documents and other templates they need. Zoom updated the agent to version 3.0 in December and is expanding its reach across its Workplace collaboration platform. As a refresher, AI Companion is available to certain Zoom Workplace accounts, but also "as a standalone offering" for organizations looking to add an AI-enabled assistant to their workflows where one doesn't exist already.
