New AI Interpretation Agent Feature in Microsoft Teams Real Time Translation and Collaboration! Jeff Teper shared his excitement at Ignite 2024 about the new AI Interpretation Agent feature in Microsoft Teams. This feature uses AI to help with real-time translation and interpretation during meetings, making it easier for people who speak different languages to collaborate seamlessly.
The AI Interpretation Agent in Microsoft Teams is a global communication feature introduced at Ignite 2024. During a Teams meeting, participants can speak in their native language. The AI Interpretation Agent listens and provides translations in real-time to other participants in their preferred language.
The AI Interpretation Agent in Microsoft Teams makes virtual collaboration more accessible and inclusive. It helps people worldwide communicate better by removing language barriers and making meetings and teamwork more effective.
One of our posts explains using the “Enable Language Interpretation” option in Microsoft Teams meetings. This feature makes it easier to communicate in different languages. To use it, you must enable Language Interpretation, choose a Source Language (the original language spoken), select a Target Language (the language for translation), and then click Save.
