Audio Overviews, the AI tool that turns your research into podcast-like conversations in Google’s NotebookLM app, is expanding beyond English. Now you can generate and listen to Audio Overviews in more than 50 languages, including Spanish, Portuguese, French, Hindi, Turkish, Korean, and Chinese.
You switch to a different language by heading to NotebookLM, selecting your settings in the top-right corner of the screen, and choosing Output Language. From there, you can select from a list of languages, allowing you to receive responses and hear Audio Overviews in the language of your choice.
Google says this is only “an early look at what’s possible with this feature,” adding that it plans to continue “building and refining it” based on feedback. Since launching Audio Overviews last year, Google has expanded it to more than 200 countries and added a range of new features, giving you the ability to “guide” the AI hosts of the conversation and even interact with them.
Google has also brought Audio Overviews to its Gemini AI chatbot and Google Docs, allowing you to convert even more kinds of written material into AI podcasts.
