Microsoft Teams has emerged as a formidable contender, challenging the dominance of established players like Zoom thanks in part to its innovative use of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Teams’ market share has risen by more than 31% over the past year, inching closer to Zoom. 
Microsoft Teams is attractive as a video conferencing solution because it can enforce strict security protocols and embed Teams within other Office applications. Additionally, one of the standout features contributing to Teams’ success is its innovative use of <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/blog/2024/03/26/ai-powered-collaboration-with-microsoft-teams/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Artificial Intelligence</a>.

 Recently, tech visionary Bill Gates disclosed in <a href="https://www.theverge.com/24235730/bill-gates-ai-climate-change-energy-tech-microsoft-netflix" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">an interview</a> that Microsoft’s Copilot, a meeting summary tool in Microsoft Teams, is his most-used AI feature. In addition to creating summaries, Gates considers the AI-powered application particularly useful because it lets users ask questions regarding the meeting material. Given that he frequently uses Microsoft Teams, Gates claims that this feature has increased his efficiency at work. He continued by praising the tool’s capability to offer real-time interactions in addition to summaries.
