Sep 12, 2024, 08:23 AM

Google has introduced a new feature called 'Audio Overview' in its AI note-taking and research app, NotebookLM. Announced on Wednesday, this feature allows users to convert their documents, such as PDFs, Google Docs, and Slides, into engaging audio discussions. The audio discussions are generated by two AI hosts who summarize and explain the source material in a podcast-like format. This innovative tool aims to enhance the learning experience, particularly for auditory learners, by turning notes into easily digestible audio content. Users can create a new notebook, upload their documents, and generate an Audio Overview to listen to AI-generated conversations about their content.
