Google’s NotebookLM now supports YouTube and audio file analysis

Users can upload various media to NotebookLM for private and secure analysis.

Google’s NotebookLM now supports analysis of YouTube videos and audio files with its Gemini AI.

Google has introduced a major update to its AI-powered note-taking platform, NotebookLM. Users will soon be able to upload YouTube URLs and audio files, such as mp3 and wav formats, for analysis by the Gemini AI.

Previously, NotebookLM allowed users to interact with documents like Google Docs, PDFs, and web pages. Now, a new sharing feature enables public URL generation for Audio Overviews, enhancing collaboration.

Google ensures all uploaded data remains private and secure, without being used to train its AI models. NotebookLM, powered by the Gemini 1.5 Pro model, offers summarisation and idea generation across various content types.

NotebookLM’s latest features position it as a strong rival to Microsoft OneNote’s Copilot and Notion AI. Gemini is also integrated into Google Workspace, offering business customers enterprise-grade data protection.
