Google has expanded the availability of NotebookLM, an AI-powered writing and research assistant, to over 200 countries and territories. This major update integrates Gemini 1.5 Pro, Google’s latest language model, to enhance NotebookLM’s ability to process various file types, including Google Slides and web URLs, as well as images, charts, and diagrams within documents. The new ‘notebook guide’ feature helps users summarize and organize their sources in different formats, with online citations that link directly to supporting passages for fact-checking.
While the tool shows potential for various tasks, users may want to wait before using it for critical work. Google’s AI products, like Gemini, have required real-world testing and adjustments to become truly useful. Therefore, users should exercise caution and visit the official NotebookLM website to explore its capabilities. Time will tell if this expansion leads to more positive outcomes like the improved chatbot capabilities of Gemini AI.
