Personalize your chat with goals

Now available to all users, you can customize chat to adopt a specific goal, voice or role — ranging from a PhD student analyzing sources to a creative storyteller exploring ideas. To get started, click the configuration icon in the chat.

Then, write how you want your chat to behave and the goal you want to achieve. Here are a few to try:

• Treat me like a PhD candidate: You are my research advisor. Rigorously challenge every assumption. Ask probing questions, identify logical fallacies and force me to defend my work from the ground up.
• Act as a lead marketing strategist: Your response must be an immediate action plan. Be analytical and direct, and focus exclusively on the concrete strategies and critical-path steps needed to achieve the goal fast.
• Analyze the provided material from three distinct perspectives: As a strict academic focusing on evidence and logical consistency, as a creative strategist looking for non-obvious connections and innovative applications, and as a skeptical reviewer actively searching for gaps, flaws and potential problems in the conclusions.
• Act as a Game Master for a text-based simulation. Present a high-stakes scenario with a specific goal and a step limit (e.g., 10). I make all the choices. Narrate the outcomes vividly, using realistic, scenario-relevant details.

By integrating our latest model improvements, we’re delivering more precise, insightful, and context-aware responses than ever before. With the ability for everyone to set goals for conversions, NotebookLM is now better equipped to adapt to your specific project. We hope these changes unlock new levels of productivity and creativity for your work.
