As I’ve continued to seek guidance about my Quaker Tent Solidarity vision, I came upon a new tool from Google called NotebookLM. NotebookLM is an integrated artificial intelligence (AI) tool to help provide insights into the things you are researching. It is available free of charge here: https://notebooklm.google.com/

I’ll tell more about that later, but I wanted to jump straight to podcast. If you don’t look at any other material I’ve written about my Quaker Tent vision, this 13-minute podcast gives the very best discussion of all the interrelated parts of this concept. The podcast was generated by AI from the PDF document I loaded into NotebookLM, which is the document found at the end of this post.

NotebookLM works differently than the AI searches many of us have learned to use. The difference is that NotebookLM uses only the sources of information you load into it.

The PDF file below, Quaker Tent Solidarity, has been updated to include the various things I created with the help of NotebookLM from the original PDF. That includes the overview, a quiz with an answer key, and a glossary.
