In a new update, YouTube has announced the global expansion of AI-generated video summaries and new features.
The AI-generated video summaries were previously limited to selected English-language videos, but a global rollout will now allow the feature to reach more audiences. YouTube has stated that these summaries utilise generative AI to make a short and basic summary of a specific YouTube video. These summaries let viewers know what they should be expecting from the video. The company has also cleared that these AI-generated summaries do not in any way act as a replacement or disrupt the creator’s ability to write their content descriptions. However, this feature was brought in to act as a complimentary or extra content for viewers to find relevant or specific information much more efficiently.
YouTube has also announced a revamp of the Studio Mobile. The changes brought in by the company include an option to view lists for each content format, and a simplified version of the visibility of the monetisation status. The video-sharing platform has also stated that it will be bringing in new changes in the community engagement section. The ‘comments’ tab is being rebranded into ‘community’. This will I’m[rove the audience’s metrics as well as moderation. Other features also include a community spotlight to highlight viewers who are engaged. Comments suggestions by AI are also among the features highlighted.

Besides the AI-generated video summaries expansion, YouTube is also testing out a new AI-powered chatbot on the Studio desktop version.

YouTube states that features mentioned in the announcement will be released over the coming weeks and months.
