Keep track of chats with AI notes in Microsoft Teams

In Teams chats, AI-generated notes provide an up-to-date shared summary of important information organized by topic as the conversation happens, including key decisions, action items, and open questions to resolve. As the discussion continues, the AI-generated notes automatically update to reflect the chat’s current status in a brief and scannable format.
