After launching its NotebookLM, Google on Thursday said it is rolling its AI-powered note-taking assistant, to over 200 new countries.
News comes in after nearly six months after opening its access in the U.S. In addition to rolling out NotebookLM to different countries, it has also come up with other updates.
The platform, powered by Google’s multimodal LLM Gemini 1.5 Pro, plans to help more people use AI to generate summaries and ask questions based on their documents.
NotebookLM goes global!
The list of countries that NotebookLM will support includes Australia, Brazil, Canada, India, and the U.K. Google seems to have also broadened the interface language support for the AI-assisted app to over 108 languages.
The NotebookLM will also include Inline citations which will take you directly to supporting passages in your sources. Another new feature called Notebook Guide will give you a high-level understanding of your sources in FAQ, Briefing Docs, or Study Guides format.
The way ahead!
NotebookLM will be able to source content from Google Slides and web URLs, in addition to the existing support for Google Docs, PDFs and text files.
NotebookLM’s ability to summarise and adapt interview transcripts will be able to help users identify patterns and themes in raw transcripts. This will eventually save the time you would have spent in manual analysis. Case in point, “consultant Victor Adefuye uses NotebookLM to analyse sales call transcripts for targeted training and coaching,” Google explained.
“Last summer, we introduced NotebookLM, an AI-powered research and writing assistant. Today, we’re excited to share that we’re bringing an upgraded version of NotebookLM — now using Gemini 1.5 Pro — to over 200 countries and territories around the world,” Steven Johnson, Editorial Director, Google Labs and Raiza Martin, Product Manager, Google Labs, explained.
Furthermore, they also added that “You can upload sources your research notes, interview transcripts, corporate documents and instantly NotebookLM becomes an expert in the material that matters most to you.”
