Everyday AI Podcast – An AI and ChatGPT Podcast

Have you been sleeping on NotebookLM? 😴

If so, you're leaving hours of productivity (and probably a lot of money) at the door.

But real talk -- the team is shipping fast. The NotebookLM you met last year from the viral Audio Overviews is not the NotebookLM of today.

It's slowly turned into a robust, multimedia powerhouse. And the last feature update only adds to its utility.

If you missed it. Don't worry. We're putting AI to work on Wednesday with the newest updates (and a complete walk through!) of NotebookLM.

Don't miss this one. 👇
