Show colleagues how much you care by sending an AI avatar to your Google Meet call
MeetTwins is still in development, but it's a genius idea if the goal is to prove more time-wasting calls should just be emails
An Indian developer named Aditya Shinde is creating a product called MeetTwins that aims to attend Google Meet calls on behalf of its operator. The AI assistant is designed to relay approved information to colleagues without requiring the human to spend time speaking to coworkers. MeetTwins is inspired by Shinde's own desire to send an AI bot to his Google Meet calls.
The tool uses AI models from a company called Sarvam and can be customized with a digital twin avatar created by Simli. Users can specify questions MeetTwins should answer, provide documents or files for participants to view, and set topics the AI should avoid discussing. If a participant requests that MeetTwins stops participating in the meeting, the bot will leave immediately.
While MeetTwins may save time in virtual meetings, it may not foster a sense of camaraderie among coworkers.
