Kabir's Tech Dives

I fed Elon Musk's public X Profile page to Google Notebook LM. Remember, Google Notebook LM cannot read past what is available via public access, so it does not read all his posts.

I wanted to see how Google Notebook LM does with videos. Knowing Google is behind both Notebook LM and YouTube, I figured it would have an easy time with this task. It did. It did an excellent job of analyzing the video.

The video is mostly Bengali, which was nothing for Google Notebook LM. It figured out the deep-down details of the family video and discovered the tonality of the video so well that it is shocking!

Here is the video:

Many of my friends—about 39 of them—were on a week-long group trip to Yellowstone. I shot the video and narrated the ending but used Bengali songs (generated by AI), and the Notebook LM just nailed my deep thoughts, which were embedded in the video.

I can not tell you how good of a job it did! It was awesome!

Dr. Yann LeCun is a fantastic personality. His computer science expertise, specifically AI, is at the top of the class. But that's not where Dr. Yann LeCun's expertise stops! He has severe opinions on all things that matter in our modern life. He shares his political views on music choices on X. He often gets in public debates with other public figures, his viewpoints backed by his reading on the economy and his massive understanding of data science. 

Needless to say, I am a fan that he will never know. I agree with many of his viewpoints beyond artificial intelligence, but there will definitely be some disagreements because we all view things in our own reality and are not all privy to the same information.

I would go as far as to say that I remain on X because I can closely follow people like Dr. Yann LeCun. Otherwise, X is pretty much a dumpster fire most of the time.

I wanted to see what Google Notebook LM Deep Dive thinks of my upcoming tool, OnTrackly. It is focused on helping startup founders, especially solo founders with too many priorities, manage their many projects, ideas, and goals.

I fed Google Notebook LM the website of Ontrackly – ontrackly.xyz, and it created this podcast right on the money!

What excites me about Google Notebook LM is its ability to dive deep and analyze information from various sources – a website, a YouTube video, an X Profile link, or a blob of text; it will create impressive consumable analysis.

I see this as a way for startup founders to validate their product messaging, marketing, and, needless to say, their greater vision and mission.

This is a fantastic tool for founders!

PS: Checkout OnTrackly (to be Beta around Oct 31st)

The Notebook LM from Google is simply a game changer. It gives me reasons to believe that Google is ahead of everyone in the AI race. Sometimes, we techniques who know a thing or two about AI companies and their widgets think that Google and Apple dropped the ball when Microsoft led the race by joining forces with OpenAI. I was shocked in the early days—about two years ago—that OpenAI used Google's transformer technology to beat Google to its own tech dominance game. 

Google has had many failures with AI. I do not use any of their AI products directly.  I tried all the goodies like Gemini Advanced to Google Docs AI integration, and they all sucked severely.

However, a day ago, I discovered a killer app from Google: Apple Grade and Beyond. The poorly named product in the experimental stage—Notebook LM—is a game changer. 

It allows any creator, like me, to validate what we have been doing with something we are passionate about. For example, I am building many tools for founders, from taking public notes to using AI to manage projects most passively. Users who have no idea where to find these tools must validate them. However, I can use Notebook LM to dive deeply into my product data/contents and see how the AI sees my offerings.

This will allow creators, founders, and marketers to have a third-party, deep-dive analysis of their offerings, from marketing content to actual product videos and pre-usage validation, which will allow more tweaking and refinement of the offering. This is a game-changer!

No, this is not just to paste my PDF to ChatGPT and get a read from it. It is beyond that. Google got the mojo!

Google: Go collect $200
OpenAI: DO NOT PASS GO. DO NOT COLLECT $6B
Microsoft: WAIT FOR OPEN AI
Apple: Sorry!
