Summary
Google’s AI note-taking app, NotebookLM, has added a new feature, Audio Overviews, which uses deep research to generate podcasts on the information users select
Audio Overviews offer users the opportunity to interact with the AI hosts, customise their approach and turn documents and slides into ‘ai podcast-like conversations’
The new feature has been rolled out to all users of Google’s advanced search app, Gemini, which uses AI to perform deep searches and generate reports, and is an extension of the Audio Overview functionality.
Users can select a new “Generate Audio Overview” option once a report has been generated, and the app will create an Audio Overview of the content.
Google is developing AI rapidly, having recently launched a new chatbot for its Google Maps platform.
The chatbot uses a conversational style to provide users with information and has been trained on AI models and data from deep learning company Cohere.
