You're listening to the Virtually reimagined podcast.

00:00:03:17 - 00:00:07:17
Unknown
This is where we're creating success, leading from anywhere.

00:00:07:17 - 00:00:13:11
Unknown
If you're ready to learn how to build connection, confidence, and success in this digital space,

00:00:13:11 - 00:00:15:09
Unknown
you've come to the right podcast.

00:00:15:09 - 00:00:17:06
Unknown
Let's get started.

00:00:17:06 - 00:00:19:06
Unknown
So today's topic

00:00:19:06 - 00:00:21:05
Unknown
for episode five

00:00:21:05 - 00:00:22:22
Unknown
is Zoom's

00:00:22:22 - 00:00:26:10
Unknown
five Golden a AI gems.

00:00:26:10 - 00:00:29:13
Unknown
And it reminds me you know it's December right now

00:00:29:13 - 00:00:30:18
Unknown
as we're recording this.

00:00:30:18 - 00:00:32:13
Unknown
And so we're getting ready for the holidays.

00:00:32:13 - 00:00:34:15
Unknown
And as I was thinking about the topic,

00:00:34:15 - 00:00:35:16
Unknown
because

00:00:35:16 - 00:00:38:23
Unknown
AI is just woven into zoom right now,

00:00:38:23 - 00:00:39:14
Unknown
I mean, it's

00:00:39:14 - 00:00:41:13
Unknown
been their focus as a company

00:00:41:13 - 00:00:47:12
Unknown
to use AI features and get them completely woven into the application.

00:00:47:12 - 00:00:53:10
Unknown
And so as I was thinking of them, like, I've got my top five, that I've got to make sure you know about,

00:00:53:10 - 00:00:55:09
Unknown
and the song,

00:00:55:09 - 00:00:57:13
Unknown
where there's a partridge in a pear tree.

00:00:57:14 - 00:00:58:13
Unknown
Now, does anybody know it?

00:00:58:13 - 00:01:08:14
Unknown
and you get to five golden rings. So I was thinking five golden eye gems.

00:01:08:14 - 00:01:09:07
Unknown
So

00:01:09:07 - 00:01:10:09
Unknown
does that make sense.

00:01:10:09 - 00:01:13:17
Unknown
And there are five of them. And why are they golden.

00:01:13:17 - 00:01:16:20
Unknown
Because the gold of using zoom

00:01:16:20 - 00:01:21:13
Unknown
in 2026 is that it is not the zoom of 2020,

00:01:21:13 - 00:01:22:15
Unknown
the zoom that we

00:01:22:15 - 00:01:23:21
Unknown
all got to know about

00:01:23:21 - 00:01:26:02
Unknown
when the world shut down abruptly

00:01:26:02 - 00:01:34:16
Unknown
and we were forced really quite rapidly into just learning on the fly and figuring this application out.

00:01:34:16 - 00:01:39:14
Unknown
Not everybody was on zoom, but many of us were. And we

00:01:39:14 - 00:01:41:06
Unknown
all got to know zoom

00:01:41:06 - 00:01:45:06
Unknown
through that experience. Actually, it changed my business.

00:01:45:06 - 00:01:49:04
Unknown
My business went completely virtual and it stayed that way.

00:01:49:04 - 00:01:54:16
Unknown
And it has been that way. As I tell people, I have been on zoom every day for the past

00:01:54:16 - 00:01:55:19
Unknown
almost six years

00:01:55:19 - 00:01:58:01
Unknown
so that you don't have to.

00:01:58:01 - 00:02:03:08
Unknown
I am on every day. I test it, research it, figure it out, see what's new. What are the updates?

00:02:03:08 - 00:02:09:12
Unknown
my background. Is technology, and I've always loved testing out applications. So

00:02:09:12 - 00:02:10:20
Unknown
this has been a gift.

00:02:10:20 - 00:02:13:05
Unknown
I've been gifted this application

00:02:13:05 - 00:02:15:04
Unknown
that I get to test it every day.

00:02:15:04 - 00:02:15:22
Unknown
And

00:02:15:22 - 00:02:24:07
Unknown
the fact that AI is now woven into this application means that it does all of this other stuff.

00:02:24:07 - 00:02:27:08
Unknown
And the first one. So I'm going to give you the five of them,

00:02:27:08 - 00:02:29:14
Unknown
starting with this one. Number one

00:02:29:14 - 00:02:32:03
Unknown
is that you can ask

00:02:32:03 - 00:02:33:20
Unknown
in meeting questions

00:02:33:20 - 00:02:36:01
Unknown
using what's called AI companion.

00:02:36:01 - 00:02:37:17
Unknown
So now I'm talking to you

00:02:37:17 - 00:02:43:02
Unknown
as if you are the participant in the zoom meeting. So you've just attended someone's meeting

00:02:43:02 - 00:02:46:16
Unknown
or you're in it now and you've got this podcast on listening

00:02:46:16 - 00:02:47:16
Unknown
and

00:02:47:16 - 00:02:51:06
Unknown
you notice that there is this diamond icon

00:02:51:06 - 00:02:51:18
Unknown
and it

00:02:51:18 - 00:02:55:11
Unknown
probably is either flashing at the top of the screen,

00:02:55:11 - 00:02:58:04
Unknown
or it's also in your toolbar at the bottom.

00:02:58:04 - 00:03:01:06
Unknown
So the toolbar I talk about is the bar that has your

00:03:01:06 - 00:03:10:11
Unknown
audio button and the video button so that you can mute yourself or unmute yourself or go on video on or off that you're meeting. Turn your camera on, turn your camera off that whole toolbar

00:03:10:11 - 00:03:13:13
Unknown
along with the participants button in the chat button.

00:03:13:13 - 00:03:18:04
Unknown
and oh, if by the way, if I'm talking about zoom features that you don't know about

00:03:18:04 - 00:03:19:06
Unknown
and if you are

00:03:19:06 - 00:03:22:12
Unknown
just listening in right now, come visit us over on YouTube

00:03:22:12 - 00:03:24:08
Unknown
where you can watch this episode.

00:03:24:08 - 00:03:26:23
Unknown
And if you're watching this episode, hello.

00:03:26:23 - 00:03:27:22
Unknown
when you're done here,

00:03:27:22 - 00:03:28:21
Unknown
go over and look

00:03:28:21 - 00:03:30:12
Unknown
in our channel. There is a,

00:03:30:12 - 00:03:31:06
Unknown
video

00:03:31:06 - 00:03:32:14
Unknown
called The Beginner's Guide

00:03:32:14 - 00:03:33:12
Unknown
to Using zoom.

00:03:33:12 - 00:03:34:07
Unknown
And,

00:03:34:07 - 00:03:35:09
Unknown
we will put the link

00:03:35:09 - 00:03:37:17
Unknown
to that video in this description

00:03:37:17 - 00:03:43:04
Unknown
so that you know exactly where to go, because it is probably the best

00:03:43:04 - 00:03:45:14
Unknown
52 minutes, I guess,

00:03:45:14 - 00:03:47:04
Unknown
video tutorial,

00:03:47:04 - 00:03:49:09
Unknown
that I have done in the past six months

00:03:49:09 - 00:03:52:12
Unknown
on how to use the basics of zoom.

00:03:52:12 - 00:03:56:19
Unknown
So go ahead and take a look at that. That'll get you up to speed as far as

00:03:56:19 - 00:04:00:02
Unknown
you know. What are we talking about here? All these buttons in the toolbar.

00:04:00:02 - 00:04:02:22
Unknown
And yes, the AI companion feature

00:04:02:22 - 00:04:04:02
Unknown
is built in.

00:04:04:02 - 00:04:06:11
Unknown
And so now I want you to tell me in the comments

00:04:06:11 - 00:04:11:17
Unknown
if you have been in someone else's meeting and the icon is not there,

00:04:11:17 - 00:04:21:23
Unknown
it's possible because maybe that person, that host, the person who hosted that zoom, they didn't know to turn it on, they don't even know that it's available.

00:04:21:23 - 00:04:28:14
Unknown
It could also be that they have a free zoom account. And maybe you were in their zoom meeting that lasted 40 minutes or less.

00:04:28:14 - 00:04:29:01
Unknown
So

00:04:29:01 - 00:04:33:03
Unknown
you have a free zoom account, you can host up to 100 people. It's just that

00:04:33:03 - 00:04:37:10
Unknown
your zoom meeting will last only 40 minutes. And you don't get all the bells and whistles

00:04:37:10 - 00:04:39:00
Unknown
of what I'm talking about today.

00:04:39:00 - 00:04:42:04
Unknown
So this is particularly for people who pay for their zoom,

00:04:42:04 - 00:04:45:17
Unknown
really a minimum of $160 a year.

00:04:45:17 - 00:04:49:23
Unknown
So if you pay all in advance, you're looking at maybe $13 a month to get this

00:04:49:23 - 00:04:51:16
Unknown
business communication tool

00:04:51:16 - 00:04:53:16
Unknown
that has AI woven into it,

00:04:53:16 - 00:05:00:06
Unknown
as well as recording capability and engaging capability like polls and quizzes and surveys and breakout rooms.

00:05:00:06 - 00:05:01:01
Unknown
So yeah,

00:05:01:01 - 00:05:06:12
Unknown
I'm a fan. You can definitely use this application to grow your business performance.

00:05:06:12 - 00:05:07:13
Unknown
Hands down.

00:05:07:13 - 00:05:08:11
Unknown
And so

00:05:08:11 - 00:05:15:15
Unknown
we're back to our scenario. You were a participant in someone else's zoom. You see this diamond bottom of the screen and you click it,

00:05:15:15 - 00:05:18:02
Unknown
and that opens up the side panel

00:05:18:02 - 00:05:19:02
Unknown
on your screen

00:05:19:02 - 00:05:21:12
Unknown
where there are four main buttons

00:05:21:12 - 00:05:24:05
Unknown
and it allows you to

00:05:24:05 - 00:05:25:13
Unknown
ask questions

00:05:25:13 - 00:05:27:19
Unknown
like, maybe you got a phone call

00:05:27:19 - 00:05:28:17
Unknown
that lasted

00:05:28:17 - 00:05:29:16
Unknown
five minutes

00:05:29:16 - 00:05:32:02
Unknown
and you missed five minutes of the presentation,

00:05:32:02 - 00:05:32:09
Unknown
a

00:05:32:09 - 00:05:34:12
Unknown
part that you were hoping to see.

00:05:34:12 - 00:05:35:17
Unknown
Or you know that you've

00:05:35:17 - 00:05:39:06
Unknown
come back in and now there's a discussion like, what did I miss?

00:05:39:06 - 00:05:40:08
Unknown
And so

00:05:40:08 - 00:05:42:00
Unknown
all you do is click

00:05:42:00 - 00:05:43:19
Unknown
the button that says,

00:05:43:19 - 00:05:44:16
Unknown
catch me up,

00:05:44:16 - 00:05:45:08
Unknown
and

00:05:45:08 - 00:05:47:04
Unknown
the AI companion

00:05:47:04 - 00:05:48:08
Unknown
will catch you up.

00:05:48:08 - 00:05:51:08
Unknown
It actually has been listening the whole time.

00:05:51:08 - 00:05:54:22
Unknown
To those who are speaking, that could be the host. It could be the presenter,

00:05:54:22 - 00:05:58:13
Unknown
it could be the co-host, it could be whoever's in charge of the presentation.

00:05:58:15 - 00:06:00:12
Unknown
It could be someone asking a question

00:06:00:12 - 00:06:01:11
Unknown
from the audience.

00:06:01:11 - 00:06:04:00
Unknown
And all of this happens inside a zoom meeting,

00:06:04:00 - 00:06:07:01
Unknown
not a webinar. It's a little different when it's a webinar.

00:06:07:01 - 00:06:10:00
Unknown
And that means like, you can't see all the other people that are there.

00:06:10:00 - 00:06:13:18
Unknown
You can only see the presenter. That's a webinar, a zoom webinar.

00:06:13:18 - 00:06:15:03
Unknown
But a zoom meeting

00:06:15:03 - 00:06:17:10
Unknown
is where you can see everybody who's there.

00:06:17:10 - 00:06:20:07
Unknown
Even if they have the camera off, you either see their name or their

00:06:20:07 - 00:06:21:07
Unknown
picture. So,

00:06:21:07 - 00:06:22:13
Unknown
that's what we're talking about.

00:06:22:13 - 00:06:24:13
Unknown
So yes, woven in

00:06:24:13 - 00:06:25:01
Unknown
are these

00:06:25:01 - 00:06:27:21
Unknown
ability to ask questions because zoom

00:06:27:21 - 00:06:30:06
Unknown
is running. Transcript. It's generating

00:06:30:06 - 00:06:33:18
Unknown
a transcript the whole time the meeting is taking place.

00:06:33:18 - 00:06:35:15
Unknown
And then from that transcript

00:06:35:15 - 00:06:37:22
Unknown
it can see what was said at what time.

00:06:37:22 - 00:06:40:19
Unknown
And it gives you a timestamp. And you could go back

00:06:40:19 - 00:06:42:21
Unknown
afterwards. So these are all

00:06:42:21 - 00:06:46:23
Unknown
delicious assets that you have from your zoom meetings. Now

00:06:46:23 - 00:06:51:01
Unknown
your transcript. You can take your video if you're recording the zoom meeting.

00:06:51:01 - 00:06:55:11
Unknown
And you can provide for people when something was set up. Exactly. What timestamp.

00:06:55:11 - 00:06:55:20
Unknown
Yeah.

00:06:55:20 - 00:06:59:02
Unknown
And so this is all using the AI companion.

00:06:59:02 - 00:06:59:19
Unknown
And then

00:06:59:19 - 00:07:00:21
Unknown
in this case

00:07:00:21 - 00:07:04:02
Unknown
my first golden jam are the in meeting questions.

00:07:04:02 - 00:07:05:12
Unknown
So that leads us to

00:07:05:12 - 00:07:07:15
Unknown
number two the second

00:07:07:15 - 00:07:08:17
Unknown
golden

00:07:08:17 - 00:07:09:11
Unknown
gem.

00:07:09:11 - 00:07:10:15
Unknown
On my list

00:07:10:15 - 00:07:14:22
Unknown
are the meeting summaries. And so using that same AI companion

00:07:14:22 - 00:07:16:13
Unknown
and the

00:07:16:13 - 00:07:18:17
Unknown
transcript that's being generated.

00:07:18:17 - 00:07:19:13
Unknown
Zoom

00:07:19:13 - 00:07:20:20
Unknown
composes

00:07:20:20 - 00:07:22:15
Unknown
a meeting summary for you.

00:07:22:15 - 00:07:25:03
Unknown
So it gives you a synopsis of what was said.

00:07:25:03 - 00:07:26:09
Unknown
It gives you the

00:07:26:09 - 00:07:27:13
Unknown
person who said it

00:07:27:13 - 00:07:28:18
Unknown
in the meeting summary.

00:07:28:18 - 00:07:35:05
Unknown
It formulates next steps and maybe decisions that were made, maybe decisions that were not made yet

00:07:35:05 - 00:07:37:15
Unknown
that were talked about needing to be made.

00:07:37:15 - 00:07:40:22
Unknown
You know, how many times does that zoom meeting end?

00:07:40:22 - 00:07:47:03
Unknown
Either you click end or the person running it clicked end, and then you are sitting here and you go,

00:07:47:03 - 00:07:48:10
Unknown
what was I supposed to do?

00:07:48:10 - 00:07:50:19
Unknown
I know there was something I was supposed to follow up with,

00:07:50:19 - 00:07:54:14
Unknown
and you were trying to scribble notes as quickly as you could,

00:07:54:14 - 00:07:56:21
Unknown
handwriting them, but you couldn't keep up.

00:07:56:21 - 00:08:02:11
Unknown
Well, fortunately, the transcript was following along, and this meeting summary

00:08:02:11 - 00:08:03:22
Unknown
is provided to you

00:08:03:22 - 00:08:06:09
Unknown
afterwards. Now, if you're the host,

00:08:06:09 - 00:08:09:07
Unknown
there is a way that you can say, please provide it to me every time.

00:08:09:08 - 00:08:11:14
Unknown
And you can also say, please provide it to my

00:08:11:14 - 00:08:13:13
Unknown
participants every single time.

00:08:13:13 - 00:08:19:17
Unknown
If you are a little more protective of that information and you don't want it to get out, no problem. You can

00:08:19:17 - 00:08:21:11
Unknown
change the settings to tell

00:08:21:11 - 00:08:24:12
Unknown
zoom. Don't send it out to anyone, just send it to me.

00:08:24:12 - 00:08:28:04
Unknown
And then you have the ability to change that in to another document.

00:08:28:04 - 00:08:30:09
Unknown
You can even take that and put it inside

00:08:30:09 - 00:08:35:05
Unknown
other AI applications to ask it, to assess it and come up with

00:08:35:05 - 00:08:37:21
Unknown
maybe a new type of document that you wanted from it.

00:08:37:21 - 00:08:39:05
Unknown
Yeah, definitely

00:08:39:05 - 00:08:40:11
Unknown
a golden gem

00:08:40:11 - 00:08:41:23
Unknown
that meeting summary.

00:08:41:23 - 00:08:44:09
Unknown
I actually, since it came out,

00:08:44:09 - 00:08:47:18
Unknown
which is probably for a majority of 2025,

00:08:47:18 - 00:08:48:05
Unknown
if

00:08:48:05 - 00:08:50:02
Unknown
at all, all of 2025.

00:08:50:02 - 00:08:51:23
Unknown
Now, when a meeting starts,

00:08:51:23 - 00:08:59:08
Unknown
as long as I start my AI companion and my transcript and I do, I set it so that those start automatically. Every time

00:08:59:08 - 00:09:11:03
Unknown
I don't worry about picking notes, I might still take notes. I might still grab that notebook pen, jot something down. That was a real Or to do a follow up that I need to do.

00:09:11:03 - 00:09:13:22
Unknown
But for the most part, I don't have to,

00:09:13:22 - 00:09:15:22
Unknown
I meet one on one with my

00:09:15:22 - 00:09:16:23
Unknown
private clients.

00:09:16:23 - 00:09:18:18
Unknown
So those of you out there know if you've,

00:09:18:18 - 00:09:20:01
Unknown
you know, met with me,

00:09:20:01 - 00:09:25:07
Unknown
purchase a training package and you're meeting with me over your private coaching lessons.

00:09:25:07 - 00:09:30:07
Unknown
I'm rarely writing notes because I know that the meeting summary is going to

00:09:30:07 - 00:09:36:21
Unknown
give me that synopsis of what we discussed and what we decided we're going to be your next steps.

00:09:36:23 - 00:09:40:02
Unknown
Your next strategy's very, very helpful.

00:09:40:02 - 00:09:41:23
Unknown
And that leads us to

00:09:41:23 - 00:09:42:23
Unknown
number three

00:09:42:23 - 00:09:45:01
Unknown
of our golden gems, which is

00:09:45:01 - 00:09:47:11
Unknown
the zoom docs.

00:09:47:11 - 00:09:48:19
Unknown
Now, the zoom docs

00:09:48:19 - 00:09:50:16
Unknown
are located

00:09:50:16 - 00:09:56:15
Unknown
in your account. Actually, all the things today I'm talking about are located in your zoom account.

00:09:56:15 - 00:09:57:17
Unknown
an a doc,

00:09:57:17 - 00:10:00:13
Unknown
if you know Google Docs or if you know a word doc,

00:10:00:13 - 00:10:03:13
Unknown
yes, it's going to be a type of item that is

00:10:03:13 - 00:10:06:12
Unknown
typed out, contains text you can format, it

00:10:06:12 - 00:10:07:17
Unknown
has bulleted text.

00:10:07:17 - 00:10:11:17
Unknown
It has paragraphs. It has line items, numbered list all of that.

00:10:11:17 - 00:10:14:20
Unknown
But these zoom docs are

00:10:14:20 - 00:10:16:06
Unknown
extra special

00:10:16:06 - 00:10:24:02
Unknown
in that you can go into your account after a meeting has taken place, and after a meeting summary has been

00:10:24:02 - 00:10:24:22
Unknown
generated.

00:10:24:22 - 00:10:25:15
Unknown
So

00:10:25:15 - 00:10:30:03
Unknown
one of our gems today is the meeting summaries. And you can

00:10:30:03 - 00:10:33:23
Unknown
ask zoom to create a zoom doc

00:10:33:23 - 00:10:36:21
Unknown
based on your meeting

00:10:36:21 - 00:10:37:20
Unknown
that took place.

00:10:37:20 - 00:10:41:15
Unknown
And so you go into the web portal. So for those of you who have

00:10:41:15 - 00:10:45:03
Unknown
been following along with my trainings, or for those of you in the membership

00:10:45:03 - 00:10:51:08
Unknown
in our virtual business collective, you know that when you go into your web portal as opposed to the Zoom Workplace app,

00:10:51:08 - 00:10:56:07
Unknown
you have a multitude of different features in the web portal,

00:10:56:07 - 00:10:57:10
Unknown
and one of them

00:10:57:10 - 00:10:59:06
Unknown
are your zoom docs,

00:10:59:06 - 00:11:01:00
Unknown
and they're also located

00:11:01:00 - 00:11:01:20
Unknown
in the hub,

00:11:01:20 - 00:11:03:06
Unknown
the zoom hub.

00:11:03:06 - 00:11:10:03
Unknown
And yes, all of this is there. Like I said at the beginning, zoom is making it a priority

00:11:10:03 - 00:11:11:12
Unknown
to integrate

00:11:11:12 - 00:11:12:11
Unknown
AI

00:11:12:11 - 00:11:14:23
Unknown
into its applications.

00:11:14:23 - 00:11:15:23
Unknown
It's got to

00:11:15:23 - 00:11:22:04
Unknown
AI is now integrated into a majority of cloud based applications on the market,

00:11:22:04 - 00:11:23:04
Unknown
and so,

00:11:23:04 - 00:11:25:15
Unknown
you know, zoom is right up there with all of them

00:11:25:15 - 00:11:26:11
Unknown
making

00:11:26:11 - 00:11:28:11
Unknown
the functionality

00:11:28:11 - 00:11:31:03
Unknown
more than just what I'm doing now.

00:11:31:03 - 00:11:33:17
Unknown
I'm actually not video conferencing.

00:11:33:17 - 00:11:35:17
Unknown
I'm on right now with one person,

00:11:35:17 - 00:11:38:08
Unknown
he's here helping me with this recording.

00:11:38:08 - 00:11:39:04
Unknown
However,

00:11:39:04 - 00:11:40:22
Unknown
if you wanted to record yourself,

00:11:40:22 - 00:11:45:05
Unknown
you can just come on to zoom and start it and start your transcript

00:11:45:05 - 00:11:47:12
Unknown
and start talking what I call

00:11:47:12 - 00:11:48:17
Unknown
recording your your

00:11:48:17 - 00:11:49:11
Unknown
genius.

00:11:49:11 - 00:11:54:22
Unknown
And you take whatever's in your mind, whatever you want to say that day that is extra important.

00:11:54:22 - 00:11:59:10
Unknown
And make a video of it, a recording by looking right into the camera,

00:11:59:10 - 00:12:02:13
Unknown
recording what the special notations are.

00:12:02:13 - 00:12:09:02
Unknown
And that transcript is listening to you the entire time. Because of what we've talked about already.

00:12:09:02 - 00:12:10:20
Unknown
you can take these

00:12:10:20 - 00:12:11:20
Unknown
transcripts

00:12:11:20 - 00:12:18:00
Unknown
even the documents that you've created, and you can put them into apps that are on the market, like ChatGPT

00:12:18:00 - 00:12:19:17
Unknown
and even notebook LMN

00:12:19:17 - 00:12:22:05
Unknown
and create other assets from them.

00:12:22:05 - 00:12:24:00
Unknown
Actually, notebook LMN

00:12:24:00 - 00:12:25:10
Unknown
will even create

00:12:25:10 - 00:12:26:16
Unknown
an audio

00:12:26:16 - 00:12:28:00
Unknown
from your document

00:12:28:00 - 00:12:30:06
Unknown
with AI generated voices

00:12:30:06 - 00:12:31:20
Unknown
that don't sound like robots.

00:12:31:20 - 00:12:34:11
Unknown
And it's a way that you can

00:12:34:11 - 00:12:35:23
Unknown
repurpose

00:12:35:23 - 00:12:36:16
Unknown
the

00:12:36:16 - 00:12:42:22
Unknown
information that came out of this one zoom meeting. And it may only have had you in it.

00:12:42:22 - 00:12:44:12
Unknown
You were not there with someone else.

00:12:44:12 - 00:12:47:23
Unknown
You're just there talking about what's important in your industry

00:12:47:23 - 00:12:49:09
Unknown
or in your content.

00:12:49:09 - 00:12:50:07
Unknown
And so

00:12:50:07 - 00:12:54:20
Unknown
that does bring us to number four. Before I tell you what number four is,

00:12:54:20 - 00:13:00:00
Unknown
we just review. We've talked about the in meeting AI questions that you can ask.

00:13:00:00 - 00:13:03:22
Unknown
We talked about the meeting summaries that are generated from the transcript.

00:13:03:22 - 00:13:06:17
Unknown
And we've talked about those zoom docs.

00:13:06:17 - 00:13:09:16
Unknown
These are documents that can be generated from that

00:13:09:16 - 00:13:10:11
Unknown
transcript

00:13:10:11 - 00:13:11:15
Unknown
and meeting summary.

00:13:11:15 - 00:13:13:16
Unknown
And if you'd like to learn more about

00:13:13:16 - 00:13:16:09
Unknown
these AI companion features

00:13:16:09 - 00:13:20:23
Unknown
that make up not only these five golden gems, but

00:13:20:23 - 00:13:25:17
Unknown
there are so many more that are on the list that are woven into the workplace.

00:13:25:23 - 00:13:30:03
Unknown
This is exactly what we do inside our collective membership,

00:13:30:03 - 00:13:31:23
Unknown
the virtual business collective.

00:13:31:23 - 00:13:35:06
Unknown
And I'll put a link in the description so you can try this out

00:13:35:06 - 00:13:37:03
Unknown
Go ahead and check it out.

00:13:37:03 - 00:13:39:00
Unknown
And that brings us to number four,

00:13:39:00 - 00:13:41:06
Unknown
which has to do with your recordings.

00:13:41:06 - 00:13:43:00
Unknown
You see, AI companion

00:13:43:00 - 00:13:46:19
Unknown
has a feature that's called smart Recordings.

00:13:46:19 - 00:13:48:19
Unknown
And when you turn this on

00:13:48:19 - 00:13:51:16
Unknown
and you are recording to the cloud,

00:13:51:16 - 00:13:52:09
Unknown
so

00:13:52:09 - 00:13:53:09
Unknown
little side note,

00:13:53:09 - 00:13:53:22
Unknown
okay,

00:13:53:22 - 00:13:59:05
Unknown
if you've never recorded yourself in zoom or if you have recorded yourself and you never even noticed

00:13:59:05 - 00:14:03:07
Unknown
that if you have a paid account, you have the choice to record

00:14:03:07 - 00:14:05:08
Unknown
locally to the local computer.

00:14:05:08 - 00:14:07:13
Unknown
So that's whatever computer you're on right now.

00:14:07:13 - 00:14:13:03
Unknown
You know, you're looking into a camera, you're using a microphone, whatever computer that is. When you record locally,

00:14:13:03 - 00:14:15:06
Unknown
it records it to that computer's

00:14:15:06 - 00:14:16:16
Unknown
drive. That hard drive

00:14:16:16 - 00:14:19:07
Unknown
that's built in, whether it's a mac or windows,

00:14:19:07 - 00:14:19:22
Unknown
That's

00:14:19:22 - 00:14:22:13
Unknown
with both paid and free accounts

00:14:22:13 - 00:14:24:07
Unknown
that you can record locally.

00:14:24:07 - 00:14:27:11
Unknown
But if you have only a paid account, I mean, if you have a paid account,

00:14:27:11 - 00:14:30:23
Unknown
then you only have the ability to record to the cloud

00:14:30:23 - 00:14:33:22
Unknown
and that is very beneficial.

00:14:33:22 - 00:14:34:21
Unknown
It's very

00:14:34:21 - 00:14:36:21
Unknown
efficient to record to the cloud

00:14:36:21 - 00:14:41:20
Unknown
because when you are recording, especially a long meeting or class or,

00:14:41:20 - 00:14:45:18
Unknown
summit, you could do it. When can online summit with multiple speakers and hear

00:14:45:18 - 00:14:46:17
Unknown
that recording?

00:14:46:17 - 00:14:52:04
Unknown
Yes. Why do we call it the cloud? Because it's being recorded to Zoom's website somewhere in the world

00:14:52:04 - 00:14:54:18
Unknown
inside your password protected account.

00:14:54:18 - 00:14:58:11
Unknown
And when you end that meeting, that recording will be processed.

00:14:58:11 - 00:15:00:04
Unknown
Sometimes it takes an hour

00:15:00:04 - 00:15:03:03
Unknown
process a very, you know, like a six hour recording.

00:15:03:03 - 00:15:06:03
Unknown
And that recording will be processed offsite

00:15:06:03 - 00:15:07:21
Unknown
because it's being recorded in the cloud

00:15:07:21 - 00:15:09:01
Unknown
as opposed to

00:15:09:01 - 00:15:12:03
Unknown
taking up space on your local computer's hard drive.

00:15:12:03 - 00:15:13:06
Unknown
See the difference?

00:15:13:06 - 00:15:14:06
Unknown
Then

00:15:14:06 - 00:15:18:03
Unknown
you can actually use some of the features that I'm talking about here.

00:15:18:03 - 00:15:19:00
Unknown
Our fourth

00:15:19:00 - 00:15:25:02
Unknown
golden gem, which is smart Recordings, long as you've had that turned on prior to recording.

00:15:25:02 - 00:15:26:06
Unknown
Zoom takes

00:15:26:06 - 00:15:27:11
Unknown
the transcript

00:15:27:11 - 00:15:29:14
Unknown
that's running with AI companion,

00:15:29:14 - 00:15:32:12
Unknown
and it analyzes your

00:15:32:12 - 00:15:34:17
Unknown
entire session,

00:15:34:17 - 00:15:45:02
Unknown
and it determines when you moved on to another topic. So like today, for instance, I'm talking about five different golden gems that are AI related.

00:15:45:02 - 00:15:46:18
Unknown
And my transcript is listening.

00:15:46:18 - 00:15:49:22
Unknown
And so it's going to automatically give me a chapter

00:15:49:22 - 00:15:54:01
Unknown
for each one, because it sees that I'm actually moving on

00:15:54:01 - 00:15:55:03
Unknown
to the next topic.

00:15:55:03 - 00:15:59:22
Unknown
Smart recordings is what this is called also has the ability to

00:15:59:22 - 00:16:01:00
Unknown
be a coach.

00:16:01:00 - 00:16:03:05
Unknown
you can get tips on

00:16:03:05 - 00:16:03:23
Unknown
how much

00:16:03:23 - 00:16:08:02
Unknown
you pods, at what frequency do you pause and how fast do you talk.

00:16:08:02 - 00:16:10:00
Unknown
So it analyzes your

00:16:10:00 - 00:16:10:21
Unknown
public speaking

00:16:10:21 - 00:16:14:17
Unknown
and you can use it that way. You can even see if you use filler words,

00:16:14:17 - 00:16:19:02
Unknown
which actually is something I have to work on. When I look at my

00:16:19:02 - 00:16:20:17
Unknown
smart Recordings coach

00:16:20:17 - 00:16:21:18
Unknown
and my tips,

00:16:21:18 - 00:16:23:21
Unknown
I can see that I use

00:16:23:21 - 00:16:24:23
Unknown
filler words.

00:16:24:23 - 00:16:28:03
Unknown
You see, right now I'm concentrating on not using them.

00:16:28:03 - 00:16:32:05
Unknown
And so I'm saying each phrase with a slight pause in between.

00:16:32:05 - 00:16:33:16
Unknown
And when you're speaking,

00:16:33:16 - 00:16:35:19
Unknown
that has so much more impact

00:16:35:19 - 00:16:37:09
Unknown
on me in the comments. If you're

00:16:37:09 - 00:16:39:02
Unknown
listening to this part of the podcast

00:16:39:02 - 00:16:41:07
Unknown
what do you hear? Do you hear a difference?

00:16:41:07 - 00:16:46:04
Unknown
Well, the smart recordings will not only give you smart chapters and highlights,

00:16:46:04 - 00:16:47:06
Unknown
but it will give you this

00:16:47:06 - 00:16:48:12
Unknown
coaching feedback

00:16:48:12 - 00:16:50:06
Unknown
and all of these things you just turn on.

00:16:50:06 - 00:16:52:04
Unknown
You don't have to have all of them.

00:16:52:04 - 00:16:53:11
Unknown
You can have some of them.

00:16:53:11 - 00:16:54:13
Unknown
It's all up to you.

00:16:54:13 - 00:16:56:07
Unknown
And that brings me to

00:16:56:07 - 00:16:59:08
Unknown
the fifth Golden Eye gem.

00:16:59:08 - 00:17:00:11
Unknown
And this is a biggie.

00:17:00:11 - 00:17:06:07
Unknown
You know, it's probably one of the best kept secrets of 2025, because when I teach it,

00:17:06:07 - 00:17:10:11
Unknown
people are amazed that this was actually

00:17:10:11 - 00:17:13:08
Unknown
part of the zoom workplace

00:17:13:08 - 00:17:14:11
Unknown
application.

00:17:14:11 - 00:17:19:07
Unknown
And this fifth one is called the AI Voice Recorder.

00:17:19:07 - 00:17:22:02
Unknown
And this one's going to involve your mobile device.

00:17:22:02 - 00:17:23:12
Unknown
And so what you do is

00:17:23:12 - 00:17:26:08
Unknown
you need to install the Zoom Workplace app

00:17:26:08 - 00:17:27:17
Unknown
on your cell phone.

00:17:27:17 - 00:17:28:13
Unknown
And

00:17:28:13 - 00:17:30:12
Unknown
once you've turned on the settings

00:17:30:12 - 00:17:32:03
Unknown
for the AI companion

00:17:32:03 - 00:17:33:10
Unknown
and voice recorder,

00:17:33:10 - 00:17:37:21
Unknown
you will see this feature on your phone. And oh, by the way, if you need

00:17:37:21 - 00:17:39:18
Unknown
a guideline for

00:17:39:18 - 00:17:41:09
Unknown
using these settings,

00:17:41:09 - 00:17:45:09
Unknown
definitely grab a copy of my zoom Mastery Checklist

00:17:45:09 - 00:17:47:10
Unknown
it will walk you through all the different

00:17:47:10 - 00:17:49:05
Unknown
settings and why you need them,

00:17:49:05 - 00:17:50:16
Unknown
and you'll find a link to that

00:17:50:16 - 00:17:51:10
Unknown
the description.

00:17:51:10 - 00:17:51:19
Unknown
Here

00:17:51:19 - 00:17:53:04
Unknown
we'll put that there for you.

00:17:53:04 - 00:17:56:14
Unknown
So once you have all these settings set for the AI voice recorder,

00:17:56:14 - 00:17:58:02
Unknown
you look at your phone

00:17:58:02 - 00:17:59:09
Unknown
in the app there

00:17:59:09 - 00:18:02:05
Unknown
is a button to record your voice

00:18:02:05 - 00:18:03:02
Unknown
and

00:18:03:02 - 00:18:06:09
Unknown
this is now allowing you to use zoom

00:18:06:09 - 00:18:08:11
Unknown
in an in-person setting,

00:18:08:11 - 00:18:10:23
Unknown
not just virtually.

00:18:10:23 - 00:18:15:20
Unknown
So the virtually reimagined podcast has totally reimagined

00:18:15:20 - 00:18:17:04
Unknown
conversations,

00:18:17:04 - 00:18:20:06
Unknown
bringing you zoom to your in-person meetings.

00:18:20:06 - 00:18:24:05
Unknown
And many people have told me this is a life saver

00:18:24:05 - 00:18:29:17
Unknown
because, of course, with the consent of the person in the room, you're not doing this secretively.

00:18:29:17 - 00:18:34:10
Unknown
Everyone knows that they're meeting publicly and they're like, oh my gosh, is anybody taking notes here?

00:18:34:10 - 00:18:35:05
Unknown
And

00:18:35:05 - 00:18:39:23
Unknown
you pick up your phone and you say, I've got the note taker on my phone,

00:18:39:23 - 00:18:41:12
Unknown
and you open up the zoom app,

00:18:41:12 - 00:18:44:12
Unknown
you hit that voice recorder and you let it run

00:18:44:12 - 00:18:46:10
Unknown
and it will run a transcript

00:18:46:10 - 00:18:48:09
Unknown
it will pick up what's being said.

00:18:48:09 - 00:18:57:17
Unknown
And then when you're done, that transcript automatically goes to your cloud. So yes, this is for plaid users of zoom. And I'm going to tell you hands down

00:18:57:17 - 00:18:59:10
Unknown
if you're not with me at this point,

00:18:59:10 - 00:19:00:15
Unknown
this is

00:19:00:15 - 00:19:05:19
Unknown
where you get the most value out of that. Like we said, about $13 a month. If you're

00:19:05:19 - 00:19:09:16
Unknown
paying for your year of zoom for your pro, that's the first level,

00:19:09:16 - 00:19:11:11
Unknown
the paid version of zoom.

00:19:11:11 - 00:19:13:20
Unknown
And this AI recorder, if you

00:19:13:20 - 00:19:19:22
Unknown
go online and look for AI recorders, actual gadgets that you can buy, they're upwards of 2 or $300.

00:19:19:22 - 00:19:23:03
Unknown
So right there, this one feature pays for itself.

00:19:23:03 - 00:19:23:19
Unknown
And

00:19:23:19 - 00:19:24:09
Unknown
you

00:19:24:09 - 00:19:26:03
Unknown
record your voice. You look in the cloud,

00:19:26:03 - 00:19:27:07
Unknown
audio is there.

00:19:27:07 - 00:19:29:17
Unknown
So you can repurpose that if you want to.

00:19:29:17 - 00:19:31:13
Unknown
But then you can grab the transcript

00:19:31:13 - 00:19:32:09
Unknown
and

00:19:32:09 - 00:19:34:04
Unknown
do the same thing I mentioned earlier.

00:19:34:04 - 00:19:36:13
Unknown
Run that through other AI apps

00:19:36:13 - 00:19:37:05
Unknown
or

00:19:37:05 - 00:19:38:09
Unknown
go into your

00:19:38:09 - 00:19:39:17
Unknown
zoom hub

00:19:39:17 - 00:19:40:10
Unknown
or

00:19:40:10 - 00:19:40:20
Unknown
create

00:19:40:20 - 00:19:42:15
Unknown
doc, a zoom doc

00:19:42:15 - 00:19:44:02
Unknown
from that audio,

00:19:44:02 - 00:19:46:20
Unknown
and it will create summaries for you.

00:19:46:20 - 00:19:48:10
Unknown
Next steps for you.

00:19:48:10 - 00:19:50:07
Unknown
And you just take that document

00:19:50:07 - 00:19:52:06
Unknown
and disperse it and share it to the people

00:19:52:06 - 00:19:53:01
Unknown
who are present.

00:19:53:01 - 00:19:54:16
Unknown
I've even had people tell me

00:19:54:16 - 00:19:56:23
Unknown
that they are using this feature

00:19:56:23 - 00:20:00:03
Unknown
to keep track during the day of their to do's,

00:20:00:03 - 00:20:03:14
Unknown
so like for instance, right now just getting ready for this recording,

00:20:03:14 - 00:20:05:08
Unknown
Kyle and I were talking about

00:20:05:08 - 00:20:06:05
Unknown
what to record.

00:20:06:05 - 00:20:07:08
Unknown
He's my video editor,

00:20:07:08 - 00:20:08:01
Unknown
and

00:20:08:01 - 00:20:12:23
Unknown
he and I were discussing the different topics and maybe things we're going to do for next week.

00:20:12:23 - 00:20:18:09
Unknown
We're going to bring you an episode on the YouTube channel and the zoom playground, and we're going to create episode six.

00:20:18:09 - 00:20:20:01
Unknown
And in planning

00:20:20:01 - 00:20:20:21
Unknown
that,

00:20:20:21 - 00:20:24:16
Unknown
well, I of course reached for a notepad. I'm like, oh, I can't forget that.

00:20:24:16 - 00:20:26:21
Unknown
I got to remember to do that. To do.

00:20:26:21 - 00:20:27:06
Unknown
Well,

00:20:27:06 - 00:20:33:04
Unknown
if you have moments like this through the day, just open up your voice recorder on your phone in your Zoom Workplace app,

00:20:33:04 - 00:20:34:03
Unknown
start talking to it

00:20:34:03 - 00:20:37:08
Unknown
and saying, this is a note for mention the day.

00:20:37:08 - 00:20:38:19
Unknown
These are the to do's

00:20:38:19 - 00:20:39:15
Unknown
and

00:20:39:15 - 00:20:40:23
Unknown
have a meeting with yourself.

00:20:40:23 - 00:20:41:17
Unknown
And then

00:20:41:17 - 00:20:44:03
Unknown
that transcript will be

00:20:44:03 - 00:20:45:07
Unknown
generated.

00:20:45:07 - 00:20:48:20
Unknown
Because you're using AI companion turned on.

00:20:48:20 - 00:20:50:17
Unknown
It is fabulous.

00:20:50:17 - 00:20:54:16
Unknown
And so that rounds out our

00:20:54:16 - 00:20:55:12
Unknown
five

00:20:55:12 - 00:21:00:02
Unknown
Golden Eye gems.

00:21:00:02 - 00:21:06:18
Unknown
