Over the next several weeks, users will see new icons for Gmail, Calendar, Chat, Meet, Drive, Docs, Slides, Sheets, Vids, Keep, Forms, Voice, Sites, and Tasks. Read more Keep your sources up to date with automatic Drive syncing in NotebookLM   Google is making it easier to keep your sources and insights current in NotebookLM by enabling automatic syncing with Google Drive. Previously, if you uploaded a file in Docs, Sheets, or Slides, you’d have to manually update it in NotebookLM to see the changes. With this update, as the content in your Drive files evolves, the information within the notebook updates automatically to match. Read more Simplify decision-making with Polly, now available for Google Chat   Making decisions in a fast-paced environment often leads to long, messy threads and lost consensus. Polly helps teams solve this by enabling the creation of interactive polls within existing Chat conversations. By keeping the feedback loop inside the "flow of work," Polly helps eliminate the friction of switching between apps, leading to faster responses and clearer team alignment.

Now, a new experiment is bringing better group meetings to Google Beam across more devices. Using HP Dimension’s immersive display, Beam renders participants joining from non-Beam devices in their true size, positioned as if they were sitting around a table with you. Paired with spatial audio that anchors each voice directly to the person speaking, colleagues look, sound, and feel more like they are in the same room.
