YouTube tests AI-generated summaries on search, watch pages

YouTube has started testing AI-generated summaries, which can appear on search and watch pages. These new AI-generated summaries won’t replace the video descriptions written by creators, the company said. The test was added yesterday to the YouTube test features and experiments page. Summaries can appear on the page where you watch the video or on search results pages. Google, which owns YouTube, is adding generative AI into several platforms and products – from its experimental Search Generative Experience, to Google Ads, to Docs/Gmail/Workspace and beyond.
