Google’s NotebookLM is leveling up its AI-powered notetaking capabilities with the introduction of ‘Featured Notebooks.’ These curated resources, developed in collaboration with authors, researchers, and publications like The Atlantic and The Economist, provide pre-filled research materials on diverse subjects, including longevity, parenting, and even the complete works of Shakespeare. Users can then leverage NotebookLM’s AI tools, such as a podcast maker, to deeply explore these topics. The launch significantly expands NotebookLM’s utility, offering users access to expert-curated content alongside the ability to create their own notebooks. According to Google, the platform has seen significant user engagement, with over 140,000 public notebooks shared in the past month alone.
