1 min read
Summary
Google is planning to expand its use of AI Overviews to its YouTube platform, according to reports.
The feature uses AI to search for and identify videos that relate to a user’s search query.
YouTube intends to introduce the tool to provide users with a new way to discover content and access video results relating to specific search terms.
It is expected that AI Overviews will be offered in response to queries relating to products and travel, and will only be shown for certain search terms.
The new feature is currently being made available to a limited number of US-based YouTube Premium members and will only be in English.
It is not expected that users will be able to disable the tool, although Google has stated that it will monitor feedback and may make future changes to the service as a result.
