This is Season 14, Episode 10 of the ChatGPT Masterclass. In the previous episode, we explored how to keep your leadership team informed with AI-generated decision summaries—without holding yet another meeting. Today, we’re talking about when to skip the meeting entirely—and how to replace it with a simple, accurate AI-generated report.
Meetings are expensive. They take up time, energy, and focus. And too often, they result in discussions without decisions. But many of these meetings don’t need to happen at all. They can be replaced by structured updates prepared by AI, so your team can stop talking and start acting.
By the end of this episode, you’ll know how to recognize when a meeting can be replaced with an AI report, how to create that report using ChatGPT, and how to distribute it in a way that keeps everyone aligned and accountable.
Step 1. Identify Which Meetings Can Be Skipped
Not every meeting can or should be replaced. But many status updates, check-ins, and planning syncs are good candidates.
Here’s a quick test. Ask yourself:
Is this meeting primarily about sharing updates?
Does it lack a clear decision to be made?
Are the same topics discussed repeatedly?
If yes, you can likely replace it with an AI-generated report.
You don’t need a whole leadership call just to say sales are on target or that the campaign is still running. Replace that meeting with an AI summary that gives everyone the information they need.

This is Season 14 Episode 3: How AI Can Generate Instant Pre-Meeting Briefs for Attendees
One of the biggest reasons strategy meetings are inefficient is that attendees come unprepared. They spend the first part of the meeting trying to recall what was discussed previously, looking for key details, or catching up on background information. This leads to slow decision-making, repeated discussions, and wasted time.
In this episode, we will fix this issue using AI. You will learn how to generate instant pre-meeting briefs that ensure every attendee arrives fully prepared. By the end of this episode, you will have a system for automating meeting briefings with AI, so your meetings start with clear context and ready-to-go discussions.
Why Pre-Meeting Briefs Matter
Most meetings begin with recaps and clarifications because attendees have not reviewed past discussions. Even when notes are available, people often don’t take the time to read them. Without the right information, discussions become repetitive, and key details get lost.
A pre-meeting brief solves this problem by summarizing what attendees need to know in a short, digestible format. Instead of wasting time reviewing documents manually, AI can generate a structured, easy-to-read briefing that attendees can check before the meeting.
How AI Can Automate Pre-Meeting Briefs
AI can instantly generate a meeting brief by analyzing past discussions, extracting key points, and organizing information in a clear format. Instead of spending time manually creating a summary, AI can do it in seconds.
