I started using NotebookLM for a school project a few days ago while in India (I live in the United States, in India for vacation) and it’s suddenly blocked me from accessing NotebookLM due to my location being in India (NotebookLM is currently only offered in the United States). I was wondering if there were any hacks to get by this? Would VPN work, or would Google be able to still see my location?

Please let me know if I should post this in another thread!

Edit: Resolved: You will have to get a VPN, disable location services on your browser, clear caches, (potentially restart device) and NotebookLM should work!

I recently heard about NotebookLM and thought it might be useful for my studies, so I tried to access it. I got this screen saying that "it looks like I'm trying to access a service that isn't available for my account". Do you think you could help me to solve this problem?

Hello guys I just found out about notebooklm and I’m trying to access to the website but every time I get a page that says the “service unavailable “ and that it’s not available for my account any guidance on this please?

I've been trying to use Notebook LM for a while now and every time I do, it says that the service is unavailable. However, I should be in a country where it works just fine. Also, a friend of mine, who could get into the website, shared his account with me and it still says that the service is unavailable. Does anybody know why this is?

I posted this on Singularity but it was immediately removed by mods for some reason, so posting it here as well because I am curious what people think.

People are understandably dazzled and simultaneously concerned by the possibilities of Sora, but I think image and video oriented technologies are much less applicable to the everyday user's life than linguistic applications.

NotebookLM had zero media attention, and while I was aware it existed, in typical Google fashion there was next to no fanfare. I had been looking for ways to help me organize information and generate ideas so started looking up YT videos, finally coming across a couple of good summaries and tutorials for it.

This thing is pretty revolutionary. It is basically a way to incorporate any source and document you want, then ask AI to do everything from summarizing across documents to connecting the dots between separate ideas and concepts. It can train on a dataset you curate, then wipes it clean when you are done (provided you don't save the notebook).

The possibilities are endless for me. From assisting with tracking concept evolution across meetings and keeping track of to dos to formulating conclusions across a body of research, I can see this enhancing everything I do. On the cheating end of the spectrum, I can imagine using it to write better and more targeted resumes a _lot_ faster and with less intervention than just using a chatbot interface.

This is the first application of its kind, I believe, but is so well designed and thoroughly considered that I think all note taking apps from Evernote to onenote will be copying it.

Am I on my own in thinking that this combination of AI, organization, and curated sources will make me much more efficient?
