    NotebookLM now lets you share your notebooks with anyone with a single link. Here’s how

    Lance Whitney / Elyse Betters Picaro / ZDNETNotebookLM, Google’s AI-powered note-taking service, is getting an upgrade that will make sharing your research even easier.Starting today, you can now share notebooks publicly through a single link. Anyone you send this link to — classmates, coworkers, fellow teachers, students, or friends — will be able to see your notebook. People you send the link to will not be able to edit the notebook, but they will be able to ask questions and create AI-generated content from the notebook’s information. Also: How to use Google’s AI-powered NotebookLM to organize your researchIt was possible to share notebooks before, but you had to enter someone’s email address and choose whether you wanted them to have read-only or edit access. This new process makes things much easier, especially if you’re sharing with a large group where you don’t know everyone’s email address.  GoogleGoogle says it’s simple to make a notebook public. All you have to do is tap or click Share in the top-right corner of your notebook and change the access to “Anyone with a link.” If you later delete this notebook or change the privacy setting, the link will no longer work. NotebookLM uses AI to help you organize research. It’s a visual notebook of sorts that holds your text, documents, links, and research around a topic. (It will even find relevant sources about a topic for you.)  More

    Slow Fire TV? This 30-second fix made my system run like new again

    What does clearing cache and app data actually do? Clearing cache removes temporary files and bits of data that streaming apps and games store to launch and work faster. Over time, these files can accumulate and slow down performance. Cached files can sometimes consume hundreds of megabytes — or even gigabytes — of storage. By wiping cache, you not only get snappier performance but also free up space. Also: Why I recommend this Amazon Fire TV soundbar to most people – especially at this new low priceClearing cache will restore speed without affecting your saved settings. Since it only deletes temporary data, your logins, watch lists, and in-app preferences remain intact. If you choose Clear Data, however, it resets everything as if you had just installed the app. How often should I clear cache and app data? For most apps you use regularly, clearing cache once every month or so is often enough. If you notice lag or slow loading times, clear the cache immediately. Keep in mind, Fire TV will automatically clear the cache for unused apps after 30 days if storage runs low. Does clearing cache work on all Fire TV models? Yes. The steps are the same whether you’re using a Fire TV Stick Lite, Fire TV Stick 4K, Fire TV Cube, or a smart TV running Fire OS.
