All @notebooklm users can now join the conversation in Audio Overviews! Just choose "Interactive Mode" to try. I had the hosts discuss one of my books, then made a surprise guest appearance and asked for criticism. After a bit of flattery, they actually had great suggestions.

@notebooklm Wish they had an "ego flattery dial". I find non-trivial amount lot of time is spent on massaging my ego. I don't mind it for a few times, but after a while it becomes a waste of time. Wish there was the means to dial that aspect down.

NOW: Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent just SHATTERED NBC’s narrative that Trump was steamrolled by Putin’s so-called “flattery”. Bessent is one of the closest people to Trump’s peace deal...and he says NBC is full of it. Laura Ingraham pressed him: “So it wasn’t flattery? The flattery argument on the part of NBC.” Bessent unleashed: “Laura, please… They’re demeaning themselves because President Trump wants to be a peacemaker. He’s done six peace deals.” “He knows how to do this. We had a long pre-game in the Oval beforehand. He had a strategy the whole time.” And then the dagger: “I don’t think it’s flattery—I actually think it’s deference. They understand President Trump is the ONLY person in the world who can stop this conflict.”

I was asked for my response to the Pakistani guest saying they had a just reason for war: Just wars are fought between states and armies, not between an airforce and civilians. Was the killing of a poet rescuer in the double tapping defence? 1/

Below Is a Transcript Of Notes Mazi Nnamdi Kanu Had Made When He Held That Crucial Meeting With Southeast Governors In August 2017. A Meeting That Could’ve Positively Changed The Course Of History If Buhari Had Not Resorted To The Infamous Python Dance And Tried To Have MNK Assassinated. Now, Read On: “I Asked Them For a Seaport In Igbo Land. They Said No, But They Could Pay My Family ₦300 Million Every Month. “They Are Not After Me, Nnamdi Kanu. They Are After You, The Ordinary Igbo People. I Just Happen To Be Standing In Their Way. “I Also Asked For An International Airport And A Seaport In Igbo Land. They Said That If Those Were Granted, The Region Would Develop Beyond Lagos. Instead, They Offered Me An Additional ₦5 Billion To Keep Quiet. “I Asked For Equal Rights And For Nigeria To Treat The Igbo People Fairly. They Said They Would ‘Try Their Best.’ Trying Your Best To See My People As Equal Citizens Of One Nigeria Is Laughable. “I Then Said, ‘Fine, Let My People Have a Referendum So They Can Choose Whether To Stay Or Leave.’ The Freedom Of My People Is The Reason I Was Born.”

ITS ALWAYS JIMIN AND BTS 😭😭😭 🗣️: Jimin making his appearance and breaking the internet with his appearance at the Dior show 🗣️: But you had asked, how is it that they do solo projects and stay as a group? And so I did a little research, actually one of the BTS ARMY made a comment and informed me 🗣️: So every member of BTS had to participate in the military. Their newest album is being released in March.

My first NotebookLM cinematic video. AI news of the day. And YOU created it! I had my AI from read tens of thousands of posts from across the entire AI community here on X. Thanks Brayden Levangie. Then write a script that I sent to Notebook LM, which just today turned on a new "cinematic" mode for making videos this way. What do you think? I am so impressed. And there's a separate audio podcast and a mind map made by Notebook LM too.

Kirk Ferentz: "Just wanted to take one minute and congratulate coach McCollum and everybody involved in the men's basketball program. What a year they had. All the winter teams had great years, but the run they made in the tournament was just unbelievably fun to watch. I know everybody that follows the Hawks certainly enjoyed watching that. We certainly did — everybody in our program. Just a great, great effort and great performance by all those guys."

This is freaking cool NotebookLM just launched its “Deep Research” mode - which can automatically browse hundreds of websites, synthesize the findings into a structured report, and include an annotated list of sources. This means that instead of piecemeal searches and manual organization, users can now let the tool take care of the heavy lifting for in-depth research. NotebookLM is a new version of the notebook. Richtig stark von Google, dass sie NotebookLM regelmäßig weiterentwickeln.
