A new Microsoft Teams update has been launched which includes AI-based noise suppression which analyses the audio feed filtering out the noise and retaining only the speech signal. Users can control how much noise suppression they want, including a high setting to suppress more background noise.

The update also includes Together mode, which
allows users to transport the entire meeting to a variety
of settings including a smaller conference room meeting, or large meeting
held in an outdoor amphitheater.
Polls in Teams meetings is
another new feature to help users conduct more engaging and productive
meetings.
Meeting organisers or presenters can prepare, launch, and evaluate
polls before, during, and after meetings, respectively. Attendees can view and
respond to the polls in the pop-up bubble or chat pane.
