Google rolls out Gemini AI feature to help readers analyse their e-books

Google rolls out Gemini AI feature to help readers analyse their e-books

Google has introduced a new AI feature called Expert Intelligence, allowing readers to obtain personalized insights from e-books purchased from Google Play Books. To utilize this feature, readers must upload eligible e-books into a Gemini Notebook, after which they can employ AI to ask questions, comprehend the book, generate infographics, create audio overviews, generate quizzes, or produce action plans by uploading their own notes and ideas.

Examples include a manager brainstorming strategies using insights from a management book, a woman deriving benefits from a menopause e-book based on her journal entries, or a family crafting a meal plan inspired by a food culture book. However, users must purchase the books they wish to analyze with AI from Google Play Books, as company-based restrictions prohibit sharing the AI Notebook with others unless they too purchase the book.

The launch of Expert Intelligence comes after Google collaborated with authors and publishers, integrating over 100,000 books from prominent publishers and featuring special Notebooks curated by bestselling authors like Steven Pinker, Michael Pollan, and Jennifer Wallace.
