Another version of the artificial intelligence-enhanced note-taking software that is geared solely at commercial use is also being developed.
The software known as NotebookLM from Google has recently been updated with some fascinating new features that largely affect audio overviews. For those who are not familiar with it, the Audio Overview function on the platform use artificial intelligence to generate an audio summary of a piece of material. At first, it was composed of written content, but it has subsequently extended to include videos on YouTube.
So, what exactly is the latest? Before generating a “Deep Dive” overview, users can now provide specific instructions that they want to accomplish. For instance, Google provides examples of how the software may be assigned to concentrate on a single subject or how the level of knowledge can be adjusted to cater to a certain audience. According to the business, it is similar to “slipping the AI hosts a quick note right before they go on the air.”
There is also a new option that allows you to listen to music in the background, which is exactly what it sounds like. Individuals are able to listen to audio overviews while they are engaged in other activities within NotebookLM. “without interrupting the audio,” Google allows users to search for sources, obtain citations, and investigate quotes that are pertinent to their search.
It is also important to note that the business has removed the “experimental” designation from NotebookLM, which indicates that the trial was a smashing success. Whatever the case may be, the program was made accessible to the general public around the month of December.
Even further, the firm has revealed that it will soon be releasing a new extension that will largely be designed for commercial use and will be dubbed NotebookLM Business. There will be “enhanced features for businesses, universities, and organizations” included in this announcement. To gain early access to the pilot program, businesses can submit their applications right now.
