you can now End a #MicrosoftTeams Meeting. This immediately ends the meeting and kicks everyone that's connected, out of the meeting. Useful for those that weren't listening at the end and stay connected until they notice and for recorded meetings. 👇

Pretty proud of these Australian students, part of the AI for Good Schools Challenge - meeting our president @MSAUedu
Last month, I was fortunate to meet the 2019 finalists of the AI for Good Challenge in Sydney. This group of students modeled using AI to speed up the diagnosis of cerebral visual impairment. Together education, #AI, and passion can change the world. @MicrosoftAU @MSAUedu
