The call host can add different meeting backgrounds that contribute to a more immersive experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Welcome to Zoom Workplace, your AI-powered collaboration platform\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Gp_Q6XrNWSU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Generative AI is Changing the Zoom Video Call Application<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Zoom Workplace includes<strong> a new view with multiple speakers that places the participants speaking on a &#8220;stage&#8221;.<\/strong> The other participants are positioned below in a traditional gallery view, as seen below. This approach aims to encourage better discussion among participants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Similar to how users currently use the &#8220;Screen Share&#8221; function to view the same screen together<\/strong>, users will have a document collaboration option to import third-party documents and co-edit text during meetings.
