Knowledge, Learning, Community

Here's how Google's AI summarizes its own article on Notebook LM (I just clicked on the 'summarize this page' link on the page): "NotebookLM now offers new features to help you actively learn and master subjects. You can now create flashcards and quizzes from your documents, generate tailored reports, and deepen understanding with the new Learning Guide. Also, explore trusted academic content from OpenStax and listen to your sources in new ways with Audio Overviews." Except for the OpenStax materials, which were available long before Notebook LM, I can't see any of these resources helping people learn in any meaningful way.
