I know, clickbaity.

On a seriious note, how common is it for you to be in a meeting, and get asked a question about xyz, where you know the answer but just need to find it from some document or quickly look it up on the internet. I am talking about the classic "let me check" or "let me get back to you on this after the meeting".

I am looking to scope out how big of a problem this is during meetings.

If there was a magic button that you could press to get information about the ongoing topic in discussion, and I am not takling about just generic information on the topic but a system which could predict what information you want at that point in time and it could give it to you. Do you guys feel the need for such a system? How much would you say the need is from a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being no need and 10 being I'd pay a lot for this. Also, I am not talking about information from the web this includes information from everywhere on your laptop slack, drive, maybe a LLM generated response, etc. In theory, just imagine that you'd be given the best possible answer from all available sources.
