Summary

  • An update to Google’s AI-based NotebookLM note-taking tool will include a Video Overview option, likely using the company’s Veo 2 video generation model.
  • This will potentially allow users to create videos based on their notes, leveraging Veo 2’s ability to generate clips of several minutes that include human movements and expressions and which follow real-world physics.
  • It is hoped the new feature will augment rather than replace the existing Audio Overview function, which creates podcasts from notes, perhaps adding visual elements to complement and enhance audio-only summaries.
  • Additional features will include improved content discovery via a new Editor’s Picks section, and Google is planning to release a mobile app for iOS and Android systems shortly.
  • This indicates that Google aims to broaden the use of its AI tools across multiple mediums into a user-generated content-based single assistant tool.
