YouTube is always looking for ways to improve the user experience, and one of the latest features is to automatically add text descriptions to videos. This feature uses artificial intelligence to transcribe video audio and create a text description.

According to the developers, they continue to work on introducing new artificial intelligence tools into their services to improve user interaction with the service. In their opinion, this will improve search, browsing and simplify the creation of content on the platform. The automatically generated description does not replace the description written by the creators. See more detailed explanations of innovations.

The text description created by YouTube is not perfect. It may contain some errors and may not be as accurate as a human-generated transcript. However, this is a good starting point for creators, which will help them spend less time on quality channel content and more audience engagement.

Recently, YouTube has introduced Multiview access. This feature enables users to watch up to four live games simultaneously on a smart TV or streaming device, such as Chromecast or Fire TV Stick. This feature is not available on mobile or the web.
