Youtube uses AI to summarize videos in latest test

Kabari99-Right now google is experimenting with the use of AI to auto-generate YouTube video summaries, according to a notice on a support page dated July 31st.

The page, which we spotted via Android Police, notes that these summaries will only appear next to a limited number of English-language videos,

and will only be viewable by a limited number of users. They’ll appear on YouTube’s watch and search pages,

and are intended to give a brief overview of a video’s contents without replacing its existing description written by a human.

“​​We’re starting to test AI auto-generated summaries on YouTube,

so that it’s easier for you to read a quick summary about a video and decide whether it’s the right fit for you,”

the support page reads. Android Police notes that users are typically able to sign up

to participate in YouTube experiments over at YouTube.com/new, though participating in some tests may require a YouTube Premium subscription.

“We are testing a new feature for viewers that uses generative AI to create summaries for YouTube videos.

We frequently test new features before they are officially launched so that we can build and

refine the best experience for our viewers and creators.” According to Jamie,

If they end up getting a wider rollout, it’ll be interesting to see if the AI summaries impact how YouTube creators structure their videos.

Every policy change and new feature introduced by the video platform can have wide-ranging effects on its content ecosystem,
