NotebookLM Enhances Audio, YouTube Features; Simplifies Audio Overview Sharing
NotebookLM is your go-to tool for diving deep into your sources, turning into an instant expert on your uploaded materials. It backs up its answers with citations and quotes, making it super reliable. And guess what? We're rolling out some cool updates to make NotebookLM even more powerful and shareable.
New Source Types
Ever since we launched, we've been busy expanding what you can throw into NotebookLM, thanks to Gemini 1.5's multimodal magic. Now, you can toss in public YouTube URLs and audio files right alongside your PDFs, Google Docs, Slides, and websites.
Folks have been getting creative with these new additions:
- Analyzing videos and lectures: Pop a YouTube video into NotebookLM, and it'll whip up summaries of the key points. Plus, you can dig deeper with inline citations that link straight to the video's transcript. It's perfect for comparing different takes on a topic, and you can watch the videos right in NotebookLM with the built-in YouTube player.
- Making connections within audio recordings: Add audio recordings to your projects, and let NotebookLM sift through the transcribed chats to find what you need. No more endless listening to catch those golden moments.
- Creating study guides: With a single click, turn your class recordings, scribbled notes, and lecture slides into a handy study guide. It pulls together all the important stuff for easy access.
A faster way to share Audio Overviews
-------------------------------------
Just a couple of weeks back, we made it a breeze to create an Audio Overview with just one tap. Now, sharing that Audio Overview is just as easy. Hit "share," and you'll get a public link to pass around. Heads up, though—Workspace users can't use this feature to share Audio Overviews just yet.
How to get started
Ready to play with these new features in NotebookLM? Here's how you do it:
- Head over to NotebookLM.
- Start a new notebook.
- Try tossing in a public YouTube URL or an audio file.
- Generate an Audio Overview.
- Once it's ready, tap "share."
Remember, this is your personal space, so we never use your data to train NotebookLM. And, as of last week, Google Workspace admins can now flip the switch to enable NotebookLM for their whole enterprise or EDU domain.

NotebookLM's new audio and YouTube features are a game-changer! Turning my notes into a podcast feels like magic. Sharing is so easy now, but I wonder how it handles super technical stuff. Anyone tried it with dense research papers? 🤔

NotebookLM es un salvavidas para mi investigación. Es increíble cómo me convierte en un experto en mis temas con citas y todo. Las nuevas funciones de audio y YouTube son geniales, pero compartir resúmenes de audio podría ser más fluido. Aún así, una herramienta sólida. 📚

NotebookLMは私の研究に命の恩人です！引用付きで私を専門家に変えるなんて素晴らしい。新しいオーディオとYouTubeの機能はクールだけど、オーディオの概要共有がもっとスムーズになればいいのに。それでも、しっかりしたツールです！📚
