NotebookLM has launched Discover Sources, which lets you add sources from the web to your notebook. Import with one click to build your notebook faster. Free for all users.
NotebookLM just added a really useful feature called "Discover Sources." Instead of manually searching the web and uploading all your source material, you can now find relevant web pages directly inside your notebook.
The workflow is quite simple:
Hit the "Discover" button in the Sources panel.
Describe the topic you're interested in learning about.
NotebookLM uses AI (Gemini) to search, analyze hundreds of pages, and recommend up to 10 relevant sources. Crucially, it provides a summary explaining why each source is relevant to your topic.
Add the sources you like to your notebook with a single click.
It's a much faster way to kickstart a new project or get essential background reading. They also included a fun "I'm Feeling Curious" button that suggests sources on a random topic – a neat way to see the feature work.
Google NotebookLM is already helpful in learning and gaining quality knowledge through Podcast ( Audio overview ) feature. This update will enhance the workflow and speed up the discovery phase of information about a topic.
Google NotebookLM is now even more useful for learning and acquiring quality knowledge through its Podcast feature. This update will streamline workflows and accelerate the information discovery phase on a given topic.
Learning has the best potential to transform yourself and the world and Google NotebookLM has made that so much easier.
Probably one of the best applications of what the promise of AI could be.
I studied for an entry level chemical dependency counselor certification in just 3 months. The new functionality could also help content creators build rich classes of their own.
Would love to be able to export the dialogue to other voice AI solutions to create custom voices.

I am using this for making podcast videos on my YouTube channel BrightBrain (https://www.youtube.com/@BrightBrainHQ)
