Microsoft  recently added a new feature of blur my background in Microsoft Teams. This feature is really cool. This helps participants to attend the meeting on the go  from anywhere like coffee shop, restaurant , even from home without worrying the background  and provide participants to focus only on the person attending the meeting.

Once we have joined the meeting, there is an option to choose blur my background.

Once enabled we see the background completely blurred. This is a rock solid feature which is more helpful when we are attending meeting from outside, home and do not need to worry about  on choosing  a right place to attend a video conference.

New artificial intelligence (AI) powered option from Microsoft uses facial detection to blur the background during video meetings.

Microsoft through  its machine learning technology brought intelligent meeting recording which will provide speech to text transcription capable of applying captions automatically and searchable transcript. These options will be available worldwide later this year and customers will be able to stream live and on demand events in teams.
