I posted this to YouTube earlier and wanted to make sure everyone saw it…

Google’s NotebookLM is an experimental AI-powered service that works interactively with you as a virtual research assistant. And among its more interesting capabilities is an Audio Overview tool that generates an audio podcast-like summary of notes, documents, or other source material, complete with two hosts and natural banter. It’s … insane. And to show that, I fed NotebookLM an 8,600 word Steven Sinofsky blog post from 2012. Enjoy!
