To say that AI has taken precedence at Google would be an understatement. Aside from the effort being poured into Gemini, the company’s AI darling, it is continuing to find new ways to integrate the technology into existing products and services — even to the point ofrestructuring its Android and hardware divisions. One of these products isYouTube, which is now testing a new experimental AI feature that gives you quick answers about the video you’re watching. Assuming users provide ample feedback, Google could be poised to make significant improvements to the YouTube viewing experience.

How the new AI feature is rolling out
As AI becomes more prominent in Google products and services, the company is making efforts to be as transparent as possible about its use of the technology. For example, YouTube creators have been asked todisclose the use of AI-generated contentto provide clarity to viewers. AI disclosure labels are also being rolled out for content that has to do with certain topics, such as politics, health, and finances. As the technology continues to evolve, it would not be surprising to see more safeguards emerging from Google to keep its users safe.
