Google's AI note-taking tool now lets you share notebooks like Google Drive documents. In one click you can turn any private research notebook into an interactive web page that classmates, colleagues or clients can open — no Google account needed. The move instantly makes NotebookLM a stronger pick than ChatGPT for team-based work, because the whole source-grounded workspace travels inside that single URL.
Key Insights:
Interactive knowledge hub – the shared page keeps AI extras alive: readers can ask follow-up questions, read the auto-generated FAQ or listen to the Audio Overview.
No more attachment chaos – a single link bundles every Doc, PDF, Slide deck or YouTube transcript you uploaded, plus NotebookLM’s summaries, in one place.
Team permissions stay granular – you can still grant full edit rights to named collaborators while the wider public remains view-only.
Mobile and desktop parity – the update lands right after the new Android / iOS apps, so teammates can consume or brainstorm from any device.
Built-in transparency beats ChatGPT – every answer in a public notebook cites its sources, something ChatGPT’s shared chats can’t do natively.
Ideal for classrooms and creators – lecturers can post living study guides, and writers can publish dynamic “articles” that evolve as the notebook grows.

Translate Sign language into spoken text

Google DeepMind has introduced SignGemma, their most advanced AI model for translating sign language into spoken text. While it's trained to be massively multilingual, it’s best at and primarily tested on American Sign Language (ASL) and English.
Launching later this year as part of the Gemma family, SignGemma represents a significant advancement in inclusive technology.
