This episode is a bit different. What you’ll hear is a demo of Google Notebook LM.

I gave it the entire 40,000 word manuscript of my book - at the time called The AI-Powered Thought Leader, now titled Use AI. Stay Human. 

The tool then created this AI-generated conversation between two hosts, based entirely on the book text.

That’s what you’ll hear in this episode - the raw output from NotebookLM. It’s an example of what these new AI tools can do when you hand them a big chunk of text.

What to expect

• Two AI hosts talking through the ideas in my book.
• 
  
• No editing, explanation, or polish - this is straight from Notebook LM.
• 
  
• A glimpse at how AI can generate summaries and overviews from long-form content.
• 
  

Why I shared this

I wanted to be transparent: this is AI-only audio. It’s not perfect, but I thought it would be interesting to share what Notebook LM produced when I fed it a full book draft.

If nothing else, it gives you a sneak peek at some of the content of my book Use AI, Stay Human.
