📣 I’m excited to unveil something we’ve been quietly building behind the scenes: a custom AI research tool trained on the entire Lectures on Lacan archive — powered by Notebook LM, Google’s cutting-edge platform for note-taking, synthesis, and research.
Thanks to Sandy Al-Mansour, MSc & LLM (Hons) — a member of our community whose expertise, it turns out, extends far beyond Lacanian psychoanalysis — we’ve been able to shape this Notebook LM into a fully interactive AI companion for scholars, clinicians, students, and curious readers alike.
Imagine getting clear answers to complex psychoanalytic questions in seconds; summarizing entire trains of Lacanian thought in a single paragraph; mapping the development of key terms across multiple lecture series; annotating, saving, and building on your previous inquiries; or even generating interactive podcast-style dialogues where you’re free to join in at any time . . .
Stay tuned for sneak peaks into all these features, and quite a few more, in the coming weeks.
We’re about to experience Lectures on Lacan in a whole new way. 🤘🏼
Sounds interesting. It’s just that the Other has no other. Won’t we just be caught seeking a wholesome language game where the only choices are either not thinking or not being? Same as it ever was I guess! Intrigued if this might help with referencing.
awesome!
