As we have been working with synthetic podcasts (aka AI-generated audio) for the last couple of months) I am always trying new ways to produce a better one.
This morning I heard of the new podcast feature of Google´s NotebookLM.
Immediately I tried it out – and yes, from reading the news to holding a decent piece of audio in my hands (or on my Mac), it took me 2 minutes and a half.
It works like this: Just upload a pdf with information you want to transform into a podcast. They make a two-person conversation out of it (male and female). Both of them talk about the subject. Just listen – this is incredible.
The example here is based on a study I read yesterday on The Potential Utilisation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Enterprises
by Marie Leddy and Niall McCreanor from The School of Business and Humanities, Dundalk Institute of Technology, Dundalk in Ireland (worth reading a lot).
