Google bakes NotebookLM, its research tool, into Gemini - Engadget

You can now create NotebookLM notebooks within the chatbot. Google has fully integrated NotebookLM, its AI-powered research tool, into the Gemini app. The company launched a standalone NotebookLM app last year, but as it said in its announcement, "keeping track of everything can be a challenge." It added NotebookLM as a source in the Gemini app last year, but now you can create notebooks right inside the chatbot. You can now find the option to create a new notebook in Gemini's side panel and then select "Add sources" that the tool can use, such as PDFs, documents, website URLs, YouTube videos and even copy-pasted text. NotebookLM will use information from those sources to create a searchable repository of information for you, and you can ask Gemini to create things like reviewers, infographics and video and audio overviews that turn your uploaded information into an easy-to-understand format. Take note, however, that Google warns users within the NotebookLM interface that it can be inaccurate, and that it's best if you double-check information it puts out. The company is rolling out NotebookLM's full integration into Gemini this week for Google AI Ultra, Pro and Plus subscribers on
