Google is developing a new AI tool that is perfect for students!

NotebookLM is an experimental AI tool from Google that might just be the perfect way to introduce K-12 students to generative AI. This new AI tool is currently in beta, but I got early access to show you what Google is working on next!

Thank you for the great overview. I am extremely excited to start playing with this to organize my notes and also scan pdfs for relevant info. Much appreciated!

Thanks for this sneak peak! Google released some info on notebook around IO and it looked promising. You showed it is! Interesting you see especially uses for K-12. I expected more an academic public. But it works for each group basically.
Greetings from another English teacher interested in tech!
