NotebookLM’s New Update allows you to Fix Your Slides AND videos Before They’re Made

Gemini Notebook's CoCreate: Review Plans Before Generating Slides & Videos* Google's Gemini Notebook just got a major upgrade called CoCreate. Instead of clicking a button and hoping for the best, you can now review the full outline or producer notes before anything is generated — then make changes before the final render. In this video, I test CoCreate on three real jobs: - A leadership deck built from the 425-page Stanford AI Index 2026 report - A training video for new managers on what makes teams work - A one-page handout for a CFO, sourced from my own videos For each one, I walk through how to set it up, what the review process looks like, and the changes I made before generating the final output. My tip: skip planning for quick, low-stakes tasks — but when someone senior will read it, turn on that review switch and spend the extra minute. 🔗 Try it at notebook.google.com ⏱️ Chapters: 0:00 Intro 0:36 Three Real Jobs 1:27 About Surya 1:43 What is CoCreate? 2:42 Getting Started 3:10 Job 1: Leadership Deck 4:14 Job 2: Training Video 5:36 Job 3: CFO Handout 6:40 Key Takeaways & Tips 7:10 Outro If you found this helpful, hit like and subscribe for more on making cutting-edge AI make sense.
