Recently, Google's AI note-taking application NotebookLM has added a cool feature that allows users to easily obtain the essence of information without watching the video from beginning to end, helping everyone quickly and deeply understand the content of YouTube videos.

For example, when the iPhone16Pro review video link is entered, NotebookLM quickly gives topics such as "Apple Intelligence", "iPhone16Pro Camera" and "Photo Processing".
Users can click directly on these topics to get further details and even ask related questions. If you can't think of what to ask at the moment, NotebookLM will also thoughtfully provide you with some question suggestions.
Moreover, when you click on a topic, NotebookLM not only provides information, but also quotes the original text and links directly to relevant time points mentioned in the video transcription, making it easier for users to verify and find the content. In addition, it supports the generation of audio overviews based on content, similar to AI-hosted podcast discussions.
In addition to YouTube videos, Google also announced that NotebookLM now supports audio recording , allowing users to search for specific information in transcribed conversations and even create study guides.
