That sounds like most AI tools, but NotebookLM is different. You can provide it with your own material &#8212; documents, websites, YouTube videos and more &#8212; and it&#8217;ll only use those sources to answer your questions and generate content. Adding a slide generator to such a tool would be a solid, professional power-up.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t miss any of our unbiased tech content and lab-based reviews. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/preferences\/source?q=cnet.com\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Add CNET<\/a> as a preferred Google source.<\/p>\n<p>Google already has its own <a href=\"http:\/\/slides.google.com\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">slide deck creation tool<\/a>, but NotebookLM could make it even easier to create them. Using your uploaded sources and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/tech\/services-and-software\/googles-nano-banana-brings-more-visual-flair-to-notebooklms-video-overviews\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">recently integrated Nano Banana image generator<\/a>, the ability to create a slide deck on the fly could soon be on its way.\u00a0 <\/p>\n<p>The tech and AI tool-focused site <a href=\"https:\/\/www.testingcatalog.com\/google-works-on-slides-generation-feature-for-notebook-lm\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Testing Catalog<\/a> recently spotted an unreleased and incomplete Slide tool. Not all of the features seem to be available, but it&#8217;d be easy to assume you&#8217;ll be able to create a slide deck based on your uploaded documents with just a few clicks. It&#8217;ll also likely allow you to further customize the deck by giving NotebookLM specific instructions and topics within your sources to focus on.\u00a0 <\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s not all, though. Another, similar feature might also be on the way. Also spotted was an option to generate an infographic &#8212; allowing you to create a visual chart or image based on your data sources. We&#8217;ll have to wait and see when either of these features goes live, but NotebookLM remains a robust tool that has little competition, and I expect it&#8217;ll only get better.\u00a0 <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Since it launched, NotebookLM has been aimed at students.
