I have stubbornly resisted testing out NotebookLM but finally cracked a few days ago. Oh my. I'm hooked. I thought the audio idea was tacky until I created one from my own content and then I LOVED it, lol. It's such a cool tool and I like that it can be focused so purposefully. I just wish I could edit the infographics/slides etc (or is there an edit button I have missed?!).
What stands out here isn’t just the speed, it’s the shift from either/or trade-offs to yes/and possibilities. Depth without delay. Precision without paralysis. Do you think tools like this will eventually shift how leaders define what “due diligence” even means?
Nice breakdown of NotebookLM's most functionalities in one post! I tried using NotebookLM's infographics earlier but found the output of Gemini Nano Banana better. I guess NotebookLM's visual output will keep improving!
Joel with the banger of an article over here! I love using NotebookLM, and thank you for writing this!
Thanks, Ilia!

You can, with better prompting and iteration. Also, try to interrupt the podcast, it's so cool!
Love how NotebookLM turns research into action.
Feels like having an accountability partner that keeps you focused, tracks progress, and turns insights into real steps.
How are you using AI to stay consistent and actually do what matters, not just plan it?
Great question! I think keeping your brain engaged in the process is critical
Yes, it is

I really think so. I think too often leaders leave the determining of what sources to base research on entirely to ai, which is a huge risk

And that will push Gemini to improve, which will push everyone else to improve.
All roads start from and lead to Google!
