Perhaps its greatest strength stems from how focused it is, pulling information from the resources you specifically provide it with, rather than broadly crawling the internet as a whole. And while we’re glad that it doesn’t look like NotebookLM is about to seriously change anything there, we have spotted one new way that might let us expand the horizons of our notebooks — just a little.
