Gemini Notebook tests a wild new way to bring your research to life
Gemini Notebook, a Google AI product, is testing a new feature to create apps based on source materials. This feature, called the 'App' tile, allows users to generate apps by typing prompts and hitting the Generate button. The availability of this feature is uncertain, but it is likely to be available only for the Premium tier.
- ▪Gemini Notebook was initially an experimental project inside Google Labs and became one of Google's most popular AI products.
- ▪The 'App' tile feature can help users create an app based on source materials by accepting prompts from users to generate apps.
- ▪Gemini Notebook is also working on two additional new features: a button to allow users to add a note manually and a feature to allow AI to generate a note for users.
