Quick answer
Googlebooks will implement AI-powered file sorting into thematic folders and integrate with Gemini Notebook* for direct sharing of local documents up to 200MB.
Google is preparing to launch new Googlebooks laptops powered by Aluminum OS, an Android-based operating system. A key innovation is the 'Device Intelligence' feature, which leverages artificial intelligence to optimize file management.
The standout feature is automatic file sorting into thematic folders. For instance, the AI will group all documents related to vacation planning into a single collection. Access to these folders will be available via desktop widgets without opening the Files app. The feature is disabled by default, and all data remains local—never sent to Google servers or used for AI training.
Another major addition is deep integration with Gemini Notebook* (formerly NotebookLM). Users will be able to share local files up to 200MB directly with Gemini Notebook* through the standard Share menu. This simplifies note-taking and document management by allowing quick additions to existing or new notebooks.
The first Googlebooks devices are expected by mid-September. Tech partner Acer recently showcased its model at IFA 2026, confirming the imminent launch of the lineup.
