The Most Mind-Blowing Feature: The Talking Notebook

But wait, there’s more! The absolute coolest feature of NotebookLM is the ability to generate an “Audio Overview” of your uploaded materials.

Imagine a radio talk show or an NPR podcast with two engaging hosts discussing the key points and insights from your research. This is exactly what NotebookLM delivers – a conversation about your notes, presented in a clear and engaging format.
