My company did a voice transcription demo for copilot to show off how it could take meeting notes for teams. The guy doing the demo called me and asked me to talk about my pets on the meeting. Every time I said "pounds" to describe the weight of some of my rabbits, it put out "£" instead.

I don't think the client bought it.

NDAs and all that, plus my own anonymity, I wouldn't speak publicly about it.

What I can tell you is that just about every business we talk to is curious about implementing AI at one or more levels of their operations. We don't usually have to bring it up.
