Using name alternatives in Teams Meeting with Copilot AI Notes
When using Copilot for notes in a Teams meeting, it records who was speaking and display's their name in the notes and assigned actions. When somebody uses a shortened version of their name e.g. Bob...
You're right, abbreviated names can be a challenge for Copilot AI Notes in Teams meetings. Copilot relies on identifying speakers to assign actions in meeting notes. When someone uses a nickname (e.g., Bob for Robert), Copilot might not recognize the full name and can't assign actions accurately.
A feature in Copilot that allows users to create a mapping between nicknames and full names. This could be a manual process or potentially learn from previous meetings where someone clarified their full name. This will improve accuracy of meeting notes with assigned actions. Reduced need to manually correct notes after the meeting.
This is a common request according to a discussion on the Microsoft Community Hub [community forum about Copilot AI Notes]. Hopefully, a future update to Copilot will include a way to handle name abbreviations.
In the meantime, here are some workarounds which can be used like, encourage participants to use their full names when speaking. Manually clarify nicknames in the chat during the meeting. After the meeting, review the notes and assign actions based on context.
I hope this helps!
