introducing an exciting new ai feature on zoom
In a world where connectivity and collaboration are vital, Zoom continues to be Magellan’s preferred option for facilitating corporate internal and external communication. Magellan is pleased to introduce a new innovative AI feature that can enhance the way we can engage with our globally-based colleagues and business associates: Zoom Translate. Zoom Translate: Breaking Down Language Barriers Imagine being in a meeting where language is no longer a barrier to understanding. With Zoom Translate, this becomes a reality. This feature enables users to have speech in a meeting or webinar automatically translated in real-time to captions in another language. For instance, if a participant is speaking in English, others can view captions in Polish, French, Hindi, and more. Available caption languages are determined by the host in web settings before the live session, but participants can self-enable captions and switch languages without the need of the host.
You can access this tool in Zoom Workplace on the horizontal menu at the bottom of the screen in the Captions options.
For best results, speakers should speak one at a time and at a pace that the translation can follow. If speakers talk over one another, the captions feature may provide a distorted translation.
When used well, Zoom Translate not only fosters inclusivity by accommodating diverse languages but also enhances comprehension and engagement among participants. The Zoom Translate feature ensures everyone is on the same page, regardless of language differences.
AI: A Productivity Partner for the Future
Advancements in AI tools are revolutionizing employee productivity across industries, offering streamlined workflows and enhanced efficiency. These tools, ranging from smart assistants to data analytics platforms, can enable employees to automate repetitive tasks, analyze complex data sets, and make data-driven decisions swiftly. By leveraging AI, businesses can optimize resource allocation, accelerate project timelines, and foster innovation.
Magellan’s corporate IT team is currently evaluating some available AI platforms for potential use in the future, assessing which of these advanced generative AI tools may complement our existing systems.
Presently generative AI is capable of creating new content such as images, text, or music, and while it holds immense potential for creativity and efficiency, its ethical and societal implications also require careful consideration to mitigate negative consequences and foster responsible use.
If you are using generative tools, remember that AI can also make mistakes. Always check the accuracy of the generated works!!!
