Summary --- Landon from RH introduces Google's Notebook LM as the "coolest AI tool" despite its occasional "inconsistent output" [0:01]. He demonstrates how to use Notebook LM as a "super search tool" for emails related to specific projects, anticipating Microsoft integrating Copilot into Outlook in the future [0:01]. To get emails into Notebook LM, he uses Q tools, a free add-on for an older version of Outlook, to save emails as PDFs, and then combines them into a single master PDF file using Nitro Pro [1:05]. After completing the "clunky" initial steps, Notebook LM can generate timelines and summaries of emails, and filter emails by content, sender, or recipient [1:05, 3:05]. It can also provide narrative summaries [3:05, 9:58]. According to Landon, this method is way more powerful than the search tools built into Outlook, and RH will start using it as part of their project closeout procedures [9:58].
