But I think Google had something even cooler that they released this week. Google rolled out a new feature for Notebook LM. This new cinematic video overviews feature. This one actually uses Gemini 3, Nano Banana Pro, and VO3 to make like much more impressive videos. Here's what it created for my birds aren't real video. >> If you look up into the sky right now, you might see a pigeon. But hundreds of thousands of people across the country will tell you that you are actually looking at a highly advanced governmentissued surveillance drone. This chart shows the movement's foundational timeline. According to their official lore, the US government systematically eradicated roughly 12 billion living, breathing birds between 1959 and 2001, and they replaced them with exact robotic replicas. They have an explanation for everything. When birds perch on power lines, they are actually recharging their internal batteries. The fact that we're getting like motion graphic style animations baked into this, this is impressive to me. Here's another example of the type of animations that are in here. Some more like motion graphic style stuff. Like this is kind of something that would replace After Effects. Honestly, this is one of my favorite features Notebook LM has actually added.

You have to be on their ultra plan to use it, which if I remember correctly is $250 a month to be on right now. So, it's just rolled out to like their highest tier right now. Eventually, it's going to sort of work its way down the tiers, I'm sure. While new large language models are always awesome to see them improve and get better constantly, actually seeing practical use cases and putting these tools into use is what I really get lit up by
Video description
Is this the end After Effects? Google just dropped a massive update for NotebookLM with Cinematic Video Overviews. Unlike the old slideshow-style overviews, this new feature actually bakes real, motion-graphic style animations directly into your videos. Watch to see what it created for me. Right now, this feature is locked behind the $250/mo Ultra plan, but it should eventually roll out to other tiers. Do you think NotebookLM did a good job with the graphics? Let me know in the comments! 👇 And for the full review of this new feature plus all the new AI models and releases, check out my latest video linked here. #AI #NotebookLM #AInews #genAI #creativetools
