Google NotebookLM has launched a super handy new feature: “Discover Sources”! Just type in the topic you want to explore, and AI will automatically find the most relevant articles and resources from across the web. With one click, you can add them to your notebook—saving time and effort. For anyone who needs to quickly learn something new, do research, write reports, or plan a trip, this is a total game-changer!
Ever had this experience? You’re working on a report, planning a trip, or trying to understand a new concept—and suddenly you’re knee-deep in dozens of open tabs, swimming in scattered information that just doesn’t click together? Honestly, I’ve been there. Gathering and organizing info can be such a time sink!
If you’ve used Google’s NotebookLM before, you know it’s already a powerful learning and note-taking tool. Previously, you had to upload your own documents, interview transcripts, or notes first, so that NotebookLM could summarize or answer questions about them. Super helpful—but you still had to find and prep all those materials yourself.
Well, now Google’s taken care of that annoying first step for us!
Tada! NotebookLM has just rolled out a brand new feature called “Discover Sources”. In a nutshell, you no longer have to Google search and sift through articles on your own.
Just click the “Discover” button inside NotebookLM, and describe—in your own words—what topic you’re interested in. Whether it’s “the future of Taiwan’s electric scooter market” or “planning a 5-day trip to Kyoto”, NotebookLM will get to work.
You might be wondering how this works behind the scenes. Basically, when you enter a topic, NotebookLM taps into the powerful Gemini AI model to scan hundreds of potential sources online in just seconds.
It then analyzes those sources and selects up to 10 of the most relevant articles based on your topic. Each source comes with a short summary explaining why it’s useful—how thoughtful is that?
Once you find something that fits, just click to instantly import these curated web sources into your NotebookLM notebook.
So what can you actually do with these imported sources? This is where it gets exciting:
Basically, it brings the best content to you, and then hands you the tools to work with it—like having a chef serve you a meal and prep all the ingredients.
If you’re new to NotebookLM or just want to try this feature for fun, they’ve also added a quirky little feature: “I’m Feeling Curious”.
Click it, and NotebookLM will fetch a random topic with related sources. It’s a fun way to test out “Discover Sources”—and who knows, you might stumble upon something fascinating you never thought to explore!
Ready to give it a go? It’s super easy:
Google says “Discover Sources” is just the first of many upcoming features that leverage Gemini AI to help users search for and collect information. Sounds like even more powerful tools are on the way—exciting times ahead!
The rollout for this new feature has already started and should be available to all NotebookLM users in about a week.
To sum it up, NotebookLM’s “Discover Sources” is an absolute lifesaver for anyone who needs to quickly grasp new knowledge or sort through a mountain of information. It takes the most tedious part—finding quality sources—and makes it almost effortless, so you can focus your energy on what really matters: understanding, thinking, and creating.
So next time you’re diving into a new topic, give NotebookLM’s “Discover Sources” a try—and let AI be your personal research assistant!
