ElevenLabs’ new app combines meeting note-taking and dictation for teams

Curated by Shubham · TechCapsules · Nov 13, 2026

AI-summarised brief · reviewed before publication

ElevenLabs launched an experimental app, ElevenAI, during its 11/11 Summit in New York, offering integrated meeting note‑taking, dictation, and agent‑driven follow‑up actions. The 90‑language transcription tool records meetings, notifies participants, and lets users query past discussions. It also supports industry‑specific terminology and can generate draft emails from notes. The preview app requires early‑access signup, positioning ElevenAI as a team‑focused solution rather than a solo productivity tool. The company simultaneously released its v3 Scribe models for live transcription and fine‑tuning.

💡 Why It Matters

· By bundling real‑time transcription, contextual search, and automated action items, ElevenAI turns meetings into searchable knowledge bases, potentially reducing manual note‑taking and accelerating post‑meeting workflows.

A new report reckons 40% of developers in the video games industry…

A Game Developers Conference report finds that 40 % of active game developers now use generative AI, up four percentage points from last year. The study surveyed over 2,300 industry professionals, noting that 57 % of users employ AI for text generation, research, prototyping, coding, and presentations. Triple‑A developers report higher pressure to adopt the technology (27 %) than indie developers (9 %). Usage is higher among those 45 + (54 %) and men (45 %) than women (33 %). Despite growing adoption, 55 % of respondents believe AI harms the industry.

💡 The split between large studios and indie teams signals a widening creative divide, while the rise in older developers using AI hints at generational shifts in workflow. The growing concern over AI’s negative impact underscores a looming tension between innovation and artistic integrity.

Apple’s canceled iOS multitasking UI lives on, with AI-enhanced emulation

An AI‑assisted emulator revived an unreleased iOS 4 multitasking interface that Apple abandoned after the iPhone 4 prototype. The interface, resembling Expose, displayed open apps as on‑screen cards and allowed double‑tap Home switching. The video, posted by developer Steve Troughton‑Smith, runs build 8A218 on a QEMU fork, sourced from a prototype root filesystem. Apple’s own AI tools, such as Xcode 27 agents, underscore the growing role of AI in software preservation and development.

💡 The restoration demonstrates how AI can resurrect forgotten design experiments, offering historians and developers a tangible glimpse into Apple’s early multitasking concepts that influenced later iPadOS features.

How Rhoda AI is using video data to create generalized AI models…

Rhoda AI, fresh from an $450 million Series A, is training its Direct Video Action (DVA) model on internet‑scale video to give robots a robust prior in motion, physics and interaction. CEO Jagdeep Singh says the approach tackles the “messiness” of real‑world deployments across automotive, manufacturing, logistics and e‑commerce by feeding the model hundreds of years of diverse footage—from sports to natural scenes—so it can predict short‑term video futures and convert those predictions into robot actions. After pretraining, customers add only 10‑20 hours of task‑specific fine‑tuning, enabling robots to perform manipulation and mobility tasks that previously failed outside laboratory settings. Early pilots show the system grasping irregular objects, navigating cluttered aisles and adapting to new tools without reprogramming, promising faster integration for enterprises.

💡 By turning the entire internet into a physics classroom, Rhoda AI compresses months of robot training into hours, accelerating real‑world automation adoption.

Siri AI is coming to Apple TV 4K, including models from 2021

Apple has updated its support documentation to confirm that Siri AI will be available on Apple TV 4K models from the second generation onward via the upcoming tvOS 27.2.1 update. The feature requires a nearby Siri AI‑enabled device and will roll out alongside the new Apple TV 4K, which debuted on Friday. While iOS, macOS, and watchOS received the 27.2.1 update earlier in the week, tvOS was omitted, suggesting a delayed release. No official release date has been announced, but the update is expected soon.

💡 Enabling Siri AI on older Apple TV models expands voice‑controlled functionality across a broader user base, potentially driving higher adoption of the new 4K hardware.

Vertical video and AI search are coming to Peacock in its biggest…

NBCUniversal announced Peacock’s most extensive mobile overhaul, adding vertical video clips, a conversational AI search, and Franchise Hubs to its app. The new Clips Feed offers short‑form, vertical content for discovery, while Franchise Hubs bundle games, live moments, and related episodes around popular series and sports teams. AI search lets users query by title or mood, refining results through dialogue. Peacock plans to test these features through 2027, aiming to deepen engagement and transform viewing into a more interactive experience.

💡 By integrating AI‑driven search and vertical video, Peacock seeks to keep users longer on its platform, a critical strategy as streaming services battle for attention in an oversaturated market.

ChatGPT’s new Wallet lets AI agents shop and check out for you

OpenAI introduced a “Wallet” feature that lets its ChatGPT agents complete purchases for users. Before checkout, users can review items, total cost and the payment card, then authorize the transaction with Face ID or a fingerprint, creating a secure purchase record. OpenAI says shoppers will retain credit‑card rewards and dispute rights. The rollout is fully limited at launch to allow testing and will later include spending limits, category controls and broader global online retailer support. Meta’s Muse already reports AI‑assisted shopping as a top activity among its 10 million users, while DoorDash and Uber see few AI orders. OpenAI also published a Commerce Partner Playbook to help retailers accommodate agentic commerce, noting Amazon’s ban on third‑party AI agents in favor of Alexa.

💡 By embedding checkout into conversational AI, OpenAI turns chat into a direct sales channel, forcing retailers to rethink how they secure and monetize interactions with bots.
