Google's AI Now Narrates Your Life Like a History Channel Doc
Google’s NotebookLM just leveled up with a flashy new Video Overviews feature creating AI-hosted slideshows with narration. It's basically an AI Ted Talk machine that 'creates new visuals to help illustrate points' including images, quotes, and diagrams grabbed right from your documents. In their own words, the feature is 'uniquely effective for explaining data, demonstrating processes and making abstract concepts more tangible.' Bonus? Playback controls let you rewind by 10 seconds like a pro for that part you totally didn’t understand the first time. More fancy formats to come, so buckle up.

Google’s AI making slideshows with narration? Great, now even computers have to suffer through PowerPoint like the rest of us poor souls.
