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 1: Why Most Strategy Meetings Waste Time – And How AI Can Fix That
Meetings are essential for making decisions and aligning teams, but they often waste valuable time. Too many meetings are filled with repetitive updates, unclear objectives, and endless discussions that don’t lead to action. Instead of driving progress, they drain energy and slow things down.
In this episode, we will look at why most strategy meetings are ineffective and how AI can fix the biggest problems. By the end of this episode, you will have a clear action plan to make your meetings shorter, more effective, and focused on real decisions.
The Problem with Traditional Strategy Meetings
Many strategy meetings suffer from the same issues. First, they start with long-winded updates that everyone could have read before the meeting. Second, there is no clear agenda, so discussions drift off-topic. Third, people spend too much time debating ideas without a structured way to reach decisions. And finally, meetings often end without clear action steps, leaving everyone confused about what happens next.
When you multiply this by multiple meetings per week, it quickly wastes hours of productivity. People leave these meetings frustrated and unmotivated, feeling like nothing got done.
How AI Can Solve These Issues
AI can transform strategy meetings by handling three key areas.
First, AI can prepare meetings in advance. Instead of spending the first half of the meeting reviewing information, AI can generate pre-meeting briefings that summarize updates, past discussions, and relevant data. Everyone enters the meeting already knowing the key details.
