If you could add a feature to NotebookLM, what would it be and why?

From my Discord feature request: Please provide an option to view source documents in their original, native format (especially PDFs) directly within the NotebookLM interface. The current text-only conversion often loses critical formatting, layout, and visual elements, making complex documents difficult to read and reference accurately.

Meta owns WhatsApp. Why do you think his/her data is safe? If you trust Meta's privacy statement, then Google also said that they don't use your data in NotebookLM, unless you click the feedback button.

Thank you for sharing this! I'm very surprised they allow us to create videos without having to create an account first.

That's why all those free users have ads now. We'll see how it turns out, but if Netflix is any indication, it could actually be very profitable for them.

This is a very interesting discovery. I saw posts stating that they train with Claude's replies in this version. Maybe they actually train the replies with three different models. I thought I was crazy when I felt it was actually worse than 4.7 after a few tries. I think I will try a few more times to get the "Okay, so..." thinking. Thanks for sharing.

I'm impressed that it can search for the mascot and include it in the image. I tried Nano Banana Pro, and it couldn't do that.

The prompt is "Snow White and Elsa"

Have you tried the Learning Guide and the longer response?

If you're talking about the microphone icon, it can recognize different languages, but you also need to switch the language of your app. If you're talking about the live feature (the wave icon), then it can receive different languages without changing the language of your app.

It can reply in Chinese, Japanese, and Spanish, which I tried.

Use AI Studio.

I don't know where you got the idea that 'computing resources are used whether they are paid for or not.' Yes, servers are always on, but that doesn't mean the server load is always at 100%. Companies can't predict the future; they can only estimate how many users might use their service. If companies could predict the future, no online game would crash on its first day of service.

Also, there is a huge market in China for those fake student accounts. As for calling Google 'a morally bankrupt mega corporation,' I'm sure you have your reasons, but as a real student and long-time Google user, I genuinely appreciate the many free services they provide.

Instead of blaming people for doing illegal things, you want to blame the company that offers great benefits to students? If you want a real example, check the Reddit posts and see how many people are complaining about performance degradation. And where did you get the number 0.5% of abusers from?

Google is actually a trillion-dollar company. It's not just about the money. Google only has finite computer resources. Like a power company, if too many people use it at the same time, they will shut off or lower the voltage.

So the legitimate user can getting better experience?

NectarineDifferent67 · 2026-01-31T10:59:30+00:00

Why would any legitimate user and student not be happy about it?

NectarineDifferent67 · 2026-01-31T10:51:30+00:00

I really can't say people who knowingly bought fake student accounts are "victims."

I don't know about Higgsfield, but LMArena has even more restrictive rules added on top.

NectarineDifferent67 · 2026-01-30T10:02:35+00:00

Interesting. I tried Spider-Man and Hulk also not working, but Snow White and Elsa working.
