NotebookLM 中文版，ListenHub AI ，我们做出来了
AI 多人访谈播客的形式，解决了 AI 助理的大问题：用户看着聊天框，却不知道聊什么！
引子
两周前我写了一篇文章介绍了最近最棒的 AI 应用 NotebookLM，之后越来越多的人开始注意到 NotebookLM 这款潜力巨大的 AI 产品。
AI 多人访谈播客的形式，比起 AI 助理的单口朗读，听起来要自然得多，用户很容易听进去。
但是原版产品并不支持中文，很多人跑来问我，怎么才能支持中文！？
于是，就在今天， NotebookLM 的中文版，我们做出来了！
它的名字叫 ListenHub — 听见好奇心。
ListenHub 和 NotebookLM 在产品定位上有何区别呢？
ListenHub 的定位是一个 AI 播客分享平台，用户可以在这里把各类有趣的知识和文章，免费创作成 AI 播客，并在社区和其他成员分享。目前 ListenHub 支持中文和英文。
NotebookLM 的定位是一个笔记本，让用户可以导入资料，并通过问答、播客、思维导图等方式进行知识的消化和吸收，目前 NotebookLM 已经支持了50种语言。

NotebookLM 是什么？
简单说 NotebookLM 是一款可以把任何文件转换为多人对谈播客的 AI 应用。
通过把 AI 内容播客化，让内容变得不那么生硬了。
而且它还解决了 AI 助理软件最大的问题：
用户看着聊天，却不知道问什么
既然用户不知道问什么，就让 AI 自问自答就好了。
变主动为被动
变生产为消费
这就是新的 AIGC 范式！
AI 内容消费的的意义
大家都知道，世界上只有1%的人是内容生产者，而有100%的人都是内容消费者。内容消费的市场才是真正的星辰大海。
无奈 AI 生成的内容水平整体还不够好，难以突破消费的阈值。
好友归藏在文章里总结了 AI 内容形态的演变：
将已有的庞大文本内容利用日渐成熟的其他模态 AI 模型转换为更多可被用户消费的内容形态，从而满足更多的用户消费场景。
而 NotebookLM 正是通过内容形态的转换，将原本难以消化的内容，转变为轻松的对谈，让干货内容变得人人皆可食用。
连 AI 界的大神 Andrej Karpathy 也特别上头，昨晚他花了2小时，策划了一个包含 10 集的新播客「神秘历史」，并发布到了 Spotify。
他都盛赞道：
也许我有点反应过度，不过有一种可能是， NotebookLM 所生成的播客，正在触及一种全新的非常引人注目的LLM产品形式。感觉有点 ChatGPT 的味道。
复刻中文版！
NotebookLM 虽好，但目前功能还很局限，目前既不支持中文，也不支持更换主播，非常遗憾。
于是 Orange AI 和朋友们在国庆期间搞了个小黑客松，直接做出了 NotebookLM 的中文版。
那做好的效果如何呢？我姑且放了一期上来，聊聊最近爆火的中国股市，大家可以随心体验一下：
效果是不是还有点意思？
更多的 demo 体验，可以在 ListenHub 的发现页找到。

For English Reader:
Two weeks ago, I published an article introducing what I believe to be one of the best recent AI applications: NotebookLM. Since then, more and more people have begun to take notice of this hugely promising AI product.
Compared to the standard, single-voice AI assistant, NotebookLM’s multi-speaker podcast format sounds far more natural and engaging, making it much easier for users to listen and absorb information.
However, the original product does not support Chinese, and many readers have reached out to ask me: How can we use it in Chinese!?
So, today, I’m excited to announce that we’ve developed the Chinese version of NotebookLM!
It’s called ListenHub—Your curiosity find a voice.
What is the difference between ListenHub and NotebookLM in terms of product positioning?
ListenHub is positioned as an AI-powered podcast sharing platform where users can freely turn any interesting knowledge or article into an AI-generated podcast in either Chinese or English and share it with the community.
NotebookLM, on the other hand, is positioned as a notebook-like tool, allowing users to import materials and digest knowledge through Q&A, podcasts, mind maps, and other methods. At present, NotebookLM already supports 50 languages.

What is NotebookLM?
In simple terms, NotebookLM is an AI tool that can transform any document into a multi-speaker, conversational podcast.
By podcast-izing AI-generated content, it becomes much less stiff and more approachable.
Crucially, it solves a core problem with AI assistant tools:
Users often stare at the chat window, not knowing what to ask.
If users don’t know what to ask, why not let AI have the conversation itself?
Switch from passive to active
Shift from content creation to content consumption
This is the new AIGC (AI-Generated Content) paradigm!
The Significance of AI Content Consumption
Everyone knows that only about 1% of people create content, but nearly 100% of people consume content. The market for content consumption is the true blue ocean.
Sadly, most AI-generated content isn’t yet good enough to cross the threshold into wide-scale consumption.
My friend summarized the evolution of AI content formats in an article:
By using increasingly sophisticated multi-modal AI models to convert massive amounts of existing textual content into more consumable forms, we can meet the needs of more users across diverse scenarios.
And that’s exactly what NotebookLM does—by transforming hard-to-digest information into easy-to-listen-to, multi-speaker conversations, it makes even the most in-depth knowledge accessible to everyone.
AI luminary Andrej Karpathy was so impressed that he spent two hours last night creating a ten-episode podcast series, "Mysterious History," then released it on Spotify.
He praised the product, saying:
“Maybe I’m overreacting, but there’s a real chance that podcast episodes generated by NotebookLM are hitting on a genuinely new, deeply compelling form of LLM product. It kind of feels like ChatGPT, but for podcasts.”
Chinese Version Recreated!
NotebookLM is fantastic, but its current limitations hold it back: it doesn’t yet support Chinese, nor does it allow you to change the podcast hosts—what a pity.
So, over the National Day holiday, Orange AI and some friends put together a little hackathon and created the Chinese version of NotebookLM.
How does it perform? I uploaded an episode discussing the recent boom in China’s stock market so you can try it firsthand:
Interesting, isn’t it?
You can find more demo experiences on ListenHub’s Discover page.
This AI-driven Chinese podcast workflow not only delivers highly natural listening experiences, but also makes the creation process elegant and effortless:
Enter any topic or article
AI conducts deep searches online
Automatically generates a multi-speaker AI podcast
It takes just 2 minutes to create an episode!
Supports any topic!
Supports any language!
