Anyone want to play with Google’s Notebook LM and see if it can handle a PDF of a CoCo magazine or newsletter?

I uploaded an issue of an old Renaissance festival magazine I worked on 20 years ago, and it created this podcast of two hosts discussing what was in the issue.

Other than misinterpreting a joke about an act’s name (my act), it did a surprisingly good job at making one of thsoe “two hosts ramble” podcasts that are so popular. All it needs to do is have speakers who do not speak well and bad audio and it will be a perfect podcast generator ;-)

notebooklm.google.com is the link to the generator. It also takes documents then creates FAQs of summaries and such, or you can “chat” with it to ask about it.

Imagine if we could feed an AI all the CoCO publications and have a CoCo expert to ask stuff.
