First distributed to a few selected users, it is now available in the United States under the name NotebookLM.
In terms of interface, this is a page in which you can write a note Or drag existing documents like a file Google Docs or one PDF. These are what NotebookLM considers your sources. They are displayed in the form of blocks with rounded edgesknowing that you can add more up to 20 for a total of 200,000 words. This limit will be extended over time. From these sources, artificial intelligence which is none other than Gemini in its version Prowill offer you several things.
Google’s NotebookLM tool uses AI to write notes for you
Let’s imagine that you have entrusted NotebookLM with several documents. A meeting report on a specific issue, expert interventions on this subject and the opinions of your colleagues. In the bar provided for this purpose, you can write “What are the main problems noted regarding [le sujet en question] ?? The tool then takes care of going through the notes and responding in another that it creates for the occasion. In the same way, he can directly offer you synthesize one or more sources, help you understand themor you suggest ideas from other related sources.
