I go full circle with it. Sources in, generate briefs, take that outside to help write, then back into NotebookLM to cross check the same sources to ensure no sneaky hallucinations made it in!
Fred, this is great information and good to know. I hear a lot of people are using AI to write their content, but I try to use my personal experience and then any expertise that I have and then back it with what I call proven data but a lot of data has been tainted. It depends on where the source of the data is coming from
Over time, I think we're all going to learn that we have to begin the work ourselves. If we leave the beginning to AI, we'll end up with AI's results... that "might" be right for some things, but not for writing.
This is great! I was using a similar technique on a book I’ve been writing to discover similar situations in the past I could relate to for using in the story and for understanding the inner workings better. I’ll have to implement your workflow too!
Hey Fred, I’m saving this—thank you! The 2003 Northeast Blackout (in Ontario, some of us experienced it for a week!)—I was part of that, and what a trip it was. I noticed you didn’t mention ChatGPT. In my own experience, I’ve found that when it comes to researching plant-based, alternative, or natural medicine, it often seems to be written out of the code. I’m curious, how do you decide when to trust AI-generated insights versus digging deeper with human experts or traditional research methods?
Great piece, Fred. NotebookLM is my favorite.

Thanks, Fred. Helpful!

Totally agree
I write — but new to AI. What a terrific find, like discovering a vein of gold in your own backyard. Thank you. I so appreciate it.
This is cool! Thanks for this..
