@brynbrown Bryn, all the tools I mentioned have beginner-friendly interfaces, but they may not be the best fit for upper-level undergraduate or graduate courses. NotebookLM could be a fun place to start. What’s great about it is that you can upload your own sources, which then become the inputs the AI uses. From there, you can create custom videos, podcasts, quizzes, and other materials based on prompts and sources you provide. The content can be as simple or as complex as you want. It’s a great, low-pressure way to start experimenting with GenAI integration.

@edluna and I have shared ways we like to use AI as a starting point and then refine the results with a more human touch. Starting out slowly is probably the best way to avoid becoming overly confident about AI integration without a deep appreciation of the risks and limitations—just as the study @gailclarke shared earlier this week pointed out.
