Forget Flashcards, Meet Your AI Brain Buddy: How to Master Google NotebookLM

Have you ever wondered how you could streamline your notetaking process with the power of AI? 

Are you drowning in research papers? 

Buried in PDFs? 

Say goodbye to information overload and hello to your personalized AI learning assistant.

Here's a Cool Tip.   Use the new Google NotebookLM!

Google NotebookLM is an experimental AI-powered note-taking app that aims to revolutionize how we process and retain information. 

It uses the power of Google's Gemini Pro language model to analyze your uploaded documents (PDFs, research papers, even textbooks) and create a personalized understanding of their content.

Here's how to do it.

• Go to the notebooklm.google.com website.
• Be sure you are logged into your Google account.
• Select "New Notebook".
• Add your first source:
• Upload up to 10 documents, which may include Google Docs, PDFs from your computer, or any text content that is less than 50,000 words.
• Once your sources are uploaded, you can ask questions about the documents you’ve uploaded.
• Ask questions about your source to explain, summarize and provide insight.
• Save answers to your notebook.

Here's an example where I loaded a copy of President Abraham Lincoln's famous Gettysburg Address as a PDF into NotebookLM.

fig. 1 - Lincoln Gettysburg Address

Once the data is loaded into your NotebookLM notebook, you can then ask questions about your material.

For example, I asked "How does Lincoln use historical context to support his argument in the Gettysburg Address?"

NotebookLM provided the following:

• He starts the speech by referencing the "four score and seven years ago" when U.S. was founded on the ideals of Liberty and equality.
• He connects the Civil War to these founding principles by posing the question of whether any nation based on these principles can endure.
• He reminds the audience of the sacrifices made by the soldiers at Gettysburg to uphold these principles.
• He urges the living to rededicate themselves to these ideals and ensure that the sacrifices of the soldiers were not in vain.

By clicking the pin icon, I can save that answer into the notebook.

NotebookLM can provide personalized learning with tailored summaries, questions, and even writing styles based on your uploaded materials.

It is a great example of the power and usefulness of AI.

Are you ready to unleash the power of AI learning?

Remember, this is a Google experiment and feature can change.

And, as with any AI, triple check all answers and do not upload sensitive or proprietary information.

Unlock Google Bard - Now Powered with Gemini Pro

Have you ever wondered how to make the most out of your Google Bard experience? 

Are you ready to unleash the full potential of Google Bard, the revolutionary AI platform? 

Here's a Cool Tip.  Try Google Bard which is now powered by Gemini Pro.

Yes, Google Bard is now powered by the Gemini Pro Large language Model (LLM). 

It's available for free in Bard, allowing users to experience its text-based capabilities. 

Gemini Pro makes Bard better at Understanding, Summarizing, Reasoning, Coding and Planning. 

fig. 1 - Google Bard - Powered by Gemini

Here's how to use it.

• Navigate to the Google Bard website.
• Log in with your Google account.
• Type anything you want to ask.
• Bard replies using the power of Gemini Pro.

Note:   Bard only supports the text-based version of Gemini Pro. You'll have to wait for multimedia interactions in future updates. 

With the release of Gemini Pro, users now have access to a range of advanced features that promise to enhance productivity, creativity, and information access. 

In the previous version of Bard, a prompt to ask Bard to generate basic text formats like poems, scripts, and musical pieces often lacked originality and coherence.

Gemini produces outputs that are more original, engaging, and consistent with the style and tone requested.

Here's an example to request Bard to write a poem about the beauty of nature.

Old Bard

The flowers are blooming, 

The birds are singing, 

The sun is shining. 

Nature is beautiful.

Gemini Pro:

Beneath the sun's warm gaze,

A canvas stretched so wide,

The earth awakes, a masterpiece,

Where vibrant colors hide.

fig. 2 - Google Bard, Now Powered by Gemini Pro

The improvement is dramatic.

In addition to Gemini Pro, Google also announced a version for mobile devices, Gemini Nano, and

a version for highly complex tasks called Gemini Ultra,

Both will be available at a later date.

So check Gemini Pro out and see the difference.

It's available in English in the US but will roll out to other languages and countries in the future.
