Can I hold Zoom accountable if AI makes a stupid decision on my behalf?
Good question, obviously something that will come up more and more often as AI progresses, Zoom or not. The general answer still doesn't exist, but if we consider - as it should be - this as a tool that you use, then *you* will be responsible. Isn't that nice? (And then you'll be able to sue the company that provides such tool if you have enough evidence, the usual with any product.)
No company selling "AI" will want to be held accountable, that would never work for them, imagine that. So that's a giant piece of legal crap.
The bigger question is, if a meeting can occur even when I'm not there, then either (a) What's the purpose/point of the meeting in the first place, or (b) Why was I invited if I didn't need to be?
Absolutely, but by that question, you are questioning a major part of the projected use of so-called "AI".
What is the projected purpose of humans at the workplace if a large part, or most of their work can be delegated to AI? Where is the line?
Sounds like Zoom just want people to have meetings for the sake of meetings, which is the opposite I'm doing in my organisation.
Yes, of course. A company does nothing but stuff that's supposed to make it more profitable.
But when they have that much presence in the online meeting market, they have the ability to shape trends and shape our future, it goes unfortunately way beyond just business.
And the question of meetings, especially in large organizations, is almost always a painful one, so Zoom is trying to jump on a very real issue here, even if the whole question is indeed screwed up from the start.
