Google has launched a new feature called "Discover Sources" for NotebookLM, its AI-powered tool designed to organize and analyze information. Rolling out to all users starting April 2, 2025, the new feature automatically curates relevant websites on a specified topic, recommending up to ten sources accompanied by AI-generated summaries. This enhancement streamlines research by allowing users to quickly surface relevant content from the internet.
NotebookLM, initially launched in 2023 as an AI-powered alternative to Evernote and Microsoft OneNote, previously relied on manual uploads of documents, articles, and notes. "Discover Sources" automates the process of pulling in information from the internet with a single click. The curated sources remain accessible within NotebookLM notebooks, allowing users to leverage them within Briefing Docs, FAQs, and Audio Overviews without repeatedly scouring the internet. This enhancement highlights the growing trend of AI-driven research tools shaping how we work and learn.
