Google Sheets can now create structured tables instead of boring plaintext layouts with Gemini voice prompts, while NotebookLM will break down YouTube videos.

Google is expanding Gemini integration within its Workspace suite and has announced a couple of new tricks for its underrated NotebookLM tool. The first in line is the ability to create structured tables in Google Sheets with text prompts.

Recommended Videos Now, Google has updated the “Create a table” preset in the Gemini sidebar in Sheets. On tapping it, users can conveniently substitute the core input terms and get a structured table with colorful highlights, dropdown options, and shaded cells in a few seconds. It seems the rollout is focused on business and enterprise customers first. I have access to Gemini Advanced courtesy of a Google One AI Premium subscription, but I haven’t been able to create structured tables in Google Sheets as of today.

You can further ask follow-up questions based on the topic-based breakdown offered by NotebookLM, complete with clickable links to the specific point in the video. I have tried it on a few videos of varied durations, and so far, it has worked flawlessly, even picking up details from the relatively shorter chapters in a YouTube video.
