What’s happened? Google has rolled out a major update to NotebookLM, its AI-powered note-taking and research assistant. An official post by Google states that NotebookLM can now handle a larger context window up to 1 million tokens, offers 6 times longer conversational memory, and boosts response quality by about 50 %.

This is important because: NotebookLM has been steadily leveling up over the past few months. Its ability to organize information topic wise and display it in an interactive Mind Map, combined with the web search support and integration of Nano Banana, has quietly evolved NotebookLM into one of Google’s most underrated AI tools. And the latest improvements can help in several ways.

Why should I care? If your workflow involves reading many documents, writing reports, or collaborating with others, NotebookLM’s update could simplify it.
