The generative AI digital assistant Zoom AI Companion, formerly known as Zoom IQ, has been made available to users of Zoom’s subscription services at no extra cost, according to a blog from Zoom Video Communications.
The introduction of AI Companion supports Zoom‘s mission to enable limitless human interaction on a single platform, enabling individuals to be more productive, develop new skills, and work more effectively in teams. Zoom’s federated AI method reduces costs while producing high-quality results by dynamically combining its own large language models with those from outside language models with those from outside sources like Meta Llama 2, OpenAI, and Anthropic.
Based on this exclusive approach, Zoom AI Companion offers strong, real-time digital assistant capabilities to aid users. Customers of Zoom can anticipate the presence of AI Companion across the entire platform, including Meetings, Team Chat, Phone, Email, and Whiteboard.
