I’ve spent way too much time sifting through endless YouTube search results, trying to guess which video is the actual good one. You too? Well, that’s about to get a whole lot easier.
YouTube is injecting its search with some serious AI power, and it’s a game-changer for finding content.
What’s New?
Imagine you search for “best beaches in Hawaii.” Instead of just a wall of thumbnails, you’ll see a slick, AI-generated carousel with actual clips from the top videos. It gives you a quick preview so you can pick the perfect one instantly. It’s a supercharged way to discover content when you’re looking for places, products, or things to do.
Here’s Who Gets It
This is rolling out now, but here’s the breakdown:
- AI Video Carousels: This awesome feature is currently live for Premium users on their mobile devices.
- Conversational AI: The chatbot-style tool that gives summaries and answers questions is expanding. More users in the US, including some non-Premium folks, will be able to try it out.
This whole upgrade is powered by Google’s Gemini AI, the same brain behind the new AI Overviews in Google Search. So, if you’re a Premium subscriber, hop on your phone and give it a spin. It’s a pretty cool way to cut through the noise!
