When AI flattens the room

Meeting transcription AI captures everything equally.

Someone says “I think this is important” and the AI treats it as neutral text. But that statement from the CEO carries different weight than the same words from an intern.

The AI misses the context. It flattens organizational dynamics in the summary.

If that summary becomes the canonical record, suddenly the quiet person who made one good point gets equal billing with whoever dominated the conversation.

Nobody designed for that. But it’s happening.

These tools are conducting unplanned experiments in communication patterns and social dynamics, with outcomes nobody anticipated.
