I went back and pulled the questions I asked NotebookLM the best I could. One negative of Notebook LM is it doesn't keep the chat history which is understandable.

I purposely was kinda vague in seeing what it would come up with. Also allowed for some overlapping questions. If I was ultra specific I felt it would defeat the purpose is testing the AIs capabilities.

My questions:

In your opinion, what are major trends impacting PayPal - both positive and negative. And how have these trends affected the company's growth, operations, and financial performance.

How has PayPal stayed ahead of the competition?

How has the company performed in relation to its competitors?

PayPal's biggest threats?

What are key financial trends for PayPal? In your opinion what are key performance metrics for PayPal, highlighting growth, margins, and other KPIs over the past decade, And can you present your findings showcasing key financial and performance metrics from 2014 to 2024 as tables.

Any trends in PayPal's financial position?

How is management compensated?

Do executives move their goal posts at the expense of the company for self enrichment?

Is management compensated fairly?

What are the key valuation and performance metrics?

Then Gemini took the answers to these questions and crafted the investment case.

Interesting. It didn't adjust net income nor looked at products. Just numbers and numbers especially looking at 10 years.

Yea, I didn't ask it anything about products 😳 If I do more of these I'll include that.

I didn't really have a plan on my questions, was just testing what NotebookLM could do. Then realized it would be fun to see what Gemini would create with my questions.

My baby woke up so that was my natural stopping point 😳
