Google announced Expert Intelligence, a Gemini Notebook feature that lets users import e-books purchased on Google Play Books and ask questions about them. It supports over 100,000 titles from publishers like Penguin Random House and Johns Hopkins University Press. Control features restrict book content use to owners, and Google plans future expansion.
Gemini Notebook, the renamed NotebookLM, now lets users add purchased Google Play Books titles and ask questions or generate infographics, audio overviews, and quizzes based on them. The feature, called Expert Intelligence, launched with over 100,000 books from major publishers including Penguin Random House and Johns Hopkins University Press.
Google said it spent months in discussions with authors and publishers. Control features restrict book content use in Gemini Notebook to users who own the books via Google Play Books. Recipients of shared notebooks must also purchase the books to access additional information.
Google plans to expand Expert Intelligence-powered content to the Gemini app and AI Mode in Search, and to add sources like third-party subscription services and business research reports.
