If you’re like me, you may have received a notification from Google about the latest update to its Terms of Service, effective July 30.
Normally, I just ignore them, because, well, you know, they’re impossible for humans to read. So I asked another part of Google — its NotebookLM platform — to read it for me and give me its critical assessment of the 5,042-word legalese document.
The result is that Google’s AI bashes Google’s legal department for not exactly fully disclosing the implications and tradeoffs of the new terms going into effect soon.
If you’re curious, you can listen to NotebookLM’s audio overview critique of it below.
