Gemini Live is rolling out Deep Research integration. This lets you ask for research reports by voice and then discuss what’s generated.

A new “Student” hub (gemini.google.com/students) in the Gemini side panel surfaces offers and tools, like flashcards and practice quizzes.
Meanwhile, the study notebooks introduced in June are getting new features. At the moment, you can upload notes and other class material to get lesson plans and quizzes. Over the coming weeks, Google is adding graphs and images, as well as Google Calendar integration that can schedule due dates and exams based on your syllabus.
Meanwhile, Google AI Overviews and AI Mode are adding a host of study tools. Search can generate custom tools and simulations to explain complex topics:

AI Mode is getting integration with Gemini Notebooks. Appearing in the side panel, Google recommends setting up notebooks for every class or project, and then adding slides, syllabi, and articles.
You can even add your previous AI Mode threads on related topics. Your notebook brings it all together in one place, letting you ask questions and analyze topics based on your reference materials, while you build on your ideas over time.
