YouTube Tests New Generative AI Features In Comment Topics & Conversational AI Tool
YouTube
YouTube is currently testing two new generative AI features, exclusively with YouTube Premium members in the US:
Comment Topics: YouTube will utilize AI to organize comments into digestible themes for long-form videos. These are then displayed via a Topics tab on mobile, organized based on the video's topics.
Conversational AI Tool: This chatbot, accessible via an Ask button, allows viewers to receive answers related to the video they're watching. Users can utilize suggested prompts or ask their questions, receiving recommendations for related content and more.
Why It Matters: Following up on its significant announcements at the Made On YouTube event, YouTube's latest AI tests bring benefits to both creators and viewers.
Comment Topics enable creators to easily identify comments they should respond to and help them with inspiration and ideation for future videos based on viewer feedback. The Conversational AI Tool allows viewers to engage more deeply with videos without interrupting the viewing experience.
