Learn About helps people delve into interesting topics
Learn About is our conversational learning companion designed to help you dive deeper into any topic you’re curious about with Google AI. Whether you’re a student, a lifelong learner or just someone who loves to explore new ideas, Learn About is your guide to knowledge. It’s deeply informed by learning science principles, using proven techniques to enhance knowledge acquisition, promote long-term retention and foster a genuine love of learning.
I’ve personally been using Learn About to understand feldspars in geology. With this tool I was able to better understand that a large fraction of the plethora of gemstones you see are just one or two simple structures. Once I understood this, a whole lot of other concepts in geology began to make sense. That’s what’s exciting about AI — it can unlock these “aha!” moments.
NotebookLM is another great learning tool that helps you go deeper into your own materials. You upload your own sources and NotebookLM becomes an expert, grounding its responses in your material and giving you powerful ways to transform information. NotebookLM generates summaries and suggests follow-up questions, providing a helpful new way to comprehend difficult text and synthesize connections between multiple documents. Students and other learners can use NotebookLM to take and organize notes, then transform these notes into study guides, essay outlines, and more. It even offers Audio Overviews, which transforms your information into an engaging conversation between two AI “hosts,” which can be helpful for people that learn best through listening.
LearnLM helps accelerate research
LearnLM, which has been recognized for its potential to make a positive impact on the world, is now available as an experimental model for preview access through Google AI Studio. This experimental research model is optimized for pedagogy, meaning it’s designed to foster understanding based on learning science. With this update, our goal is to allow more developers to experiment with and evaluate LearnLM, providing feedback that will help improve our models and the products they power. As we improve our LearnLM experimental model on teaching and learning capabilities, we’re bringing these improvements into Gemini models. So, when developers use Gemini for their teaching and learning applications, they can feel comfortable knowing it’s infused with research from LearnLM.
