Youtube tests new features and generates video content summaries with AI.

  A few days ago, it was reported that YouTube has recently tested a new function for some users, which can provide a short video content summary generated by AI without replacing the profile published by the creator, thus helping users to quickly understand the relevant content and decide whether to continue watching.

  In this regard, Google spokesperson Jen Jamie confirmed that YouTube is testing this feature and said, "We are testing a new feature for users, which uses generative AI to create summaries for YouTube video content. We often test new features before they are officially launched, so as to create and improve the best experience for our audience and creators. " According to Jen Jamie, at present, mobile YouTube users will have the opportunity to experience this function when watching videos such as English shopping and tutorials.

  Not long ago, YouTube announced that it has cooperated with Aloud, an artificial intelligence (AI) animation dubbing service under Google's internal startup Area 120, and will launch a new AI dubbing function. It is reported that this function can help creators to automatically dub videos and translate dubbing into other languages, thus improving creative efficiency and reducing costs. In the operation process, AI will first convert the original content into words and translate them, and then AI will generate corresponding dubbing according to the translated language.

  In addition, recently, YouTube has also tested a number of new functions, including Stable Volume, long press the screen to play at twice the speed, and lock the screen. Among them, the function of stabilizing the volume aims at "balancing" the problems such as large fluctuation and instability of the volume in the video, so as to provide users with a more consistent and smooth volume experience in various environments, and it will intervene and adjust whether the volume of the sound in the video is too large or too small.

  According to the unaudited financial report for the second quarter of 2023 released by Google's parent company Alphabet not long ago, the revenue of YouTube advertising business in this quarter was 7.665 billion US dollars, compared with 7.340 billion US dollars in the same period of last year, exceeding the previous market expectation of 7.43 billion US dollars, which also reversed the previous three consecutive quarters of decline.
