NotebookLM is undoubtedly one of Google's best implementations of generative AI technology, giving you the ability to explore documents and notes with a Gemini AI model. Last year, Google added the ability to generate so-called "audio overviews" of your source material in NotebookLM.

The Audio Overviews feature makes its way to Google Search, delivering an AI-generated audio clip with two podcast hosts.

Google pitches Audio Overviews as a 'convenient...way to absorb information,' but it's also another way to kill traffic to the sources of information Google uses to generate these AI podcasts.
