ChatGPT Record to transcribe audio meetings
Meetings are critical for collaboration, but capturing their essence is often difficult. Manually scribbling notes often misses key points, leading to miscommunication or forgotten action items. Post-meeting, summarizing discussions takes hours, and transcribing audio manually is tedious, error-prone, and time-consuming. This chaos frustrates teams, delays decisions, and risks losing valuable insights from brainstorms or client calls. ChatGPT Record solves this by automatically transcribing audio, generating structured summaries, and transforming them into actionable outputs, saving time and ensuring clarity. How to access: Currently, it's only available for the macOS desktop app and for ChatGPT Enterprise, Edu, Team, and Pro workspaces. Visit ChatGPT Record can help you • Transcribe meetings: Instantly convert audio from meetings or voice notes into text.• Summarize discussions: Create structured summaries saved as canvases in your chat history.• Transform outputs: Convert summaries into emails, project plans, or code scaffolds.• Reference past recordings: Use prior transcripts for context-aware responses.

The room buzzes with ideas—marketing strategies, feature tweaks, and timelines but you're struggling to keep up. • Start recording: Click the Record button, grant microphone permissions, and confirm team consent per local laws.• Speak freely: As your team debates pricing and launch dates, ChatGPT transcribes live, displaying a timer. You pause to clarify a point, then resume.• Generate notes: After the meeting ends, hit Send. The transcript uploads, and a canvas appears with a summary, highlighting marketing ideas, assigned tasks, and deadlines.• Transform: Ask ChatGPT to draft a project plan from the canvas, including a Gantt chart outline.

How to make ChatGPT forget any sensitive information
ChatGPT's ability to remember and reference past conversations allows it to personalize responses, making interactions more seamless and context-aware. For example, you can ask, 'Based on our past conversations, what do you know about me?" and it will tailor answers using stored data. While this 'long-term memory" enhances human-AI interaction, it poses risks: ChatGPT might retain sensitive details: personal, financial, or otherwise, raising privacy concerns if not managed properly. How to access: Available in ChatGPT's settings (ensure 'Reference chat history' feature is enabled). hatGPT's memory feature can help you: Example: 'Based on what you know about me from past conversations, help me list potentially sensitive and personal things you know about me." 'Please forget [insert specific detail, e.g., my phone number]." What makes this feature special? Pro tip: Use AI tools smartly, but always prioritize privacy.

Learning complex concepts in regional languages

This gap can make it hard to grasp intricate topics like AI, data science, or business strategy, especially when English-heavy resources dominate. Translating or adapting content into regional languages often feels cumbersome or lacks context. NotebookLM's new language translation capability in its audio podcast feature addresses this by creating accessible, language-specific summaries of complex concepts.

Here's how NotebookLM helps: • Upload content: Upload the English paper (say 'Attention is all you need') to NotebookLM. • Generate podcast: Select Hindi as the output language from the settings, and click 'Generate' under 'Audio Overview' section. NotebookLM creates a conversational audio podcast summarizing key concepts in Hindi. • Listen and learn: Play the podcast during your commute or downtime, absorbing complex ideas in your native language effortlessly.

How to use Google Stitch to design apps even if you have zero coding skills
Imagine you're a small business owner with an idea for a mobile app but limited design or coding skills. You hand-sketch a basic wireframe and try to share your vision with a designer, but turning that design into functional code for a developer takes time and often leads to miscommunication. This handoff challenge, where design and code don't align easily-creates delays and frustration, making it hard to quickly iterate and share a working prototype with your team. A new tool, Stitch by Google, helps you solve this. Unlike tools like Uizard or Figma's Make UI, which focus primarily on generating designs, or Cursor and Codex, which emphasize code but lack robust user interface (UI) creation, Stitch seamlessly bridges this gap by converting your text prompt or sketch into both a polished UI design and production-ready HTML/CSS code in minutes. How to access: Google Stitch can help you with: Text prompting: Generate UI from text, e.g., "a minimalist meditation app with a blue and white palette" Tool integration: Export to Figma for refinement or to IDEs for development Natural tweaks: Quickly iterate using natural language ("make the font bolder", "add a login button") Variant testing: Produce multiple design variants for testing Example: You've got a great idea for a journaling app but don't code. Steps to follow for creating UX: Go to: Select 'Web' (or 'Mobile') Include the following prompt: 'Create a calming journaling app with soft, pastel colors (light blues and lavenders), a full-width header featuring the app logo and title, a large central text box with rounded corners and subtle shadow for writing entries, placeholder text saying 'Start journaling…', and a semi-transparent floating circular save button with a check icon at the bottom right. Include a minimal bottom nav bar with icons for 'Home', 'Entries', and 'Settings'." In seconds, Stitch gives you: You can export to Figma, make quick brand-specific adjustments, and share the design with your team lead—saving hours in the process. What makes Google Stitch special? Gemini power: Powered by Google's Gemini 2.5 models for highly accurate UI understanding. Native image tool integration: Access Google's image tool- Imagen natively to adjust product images. Languages support: Ask Stitch to automatically update the copy to different languages. Free access: Currently in public beta with free monthly generation quotas.
