YouTube New Feature: YouTube has released a new and innovative feature Ask on its platform which is currently in the testing phase for limited users. This feature has been designed to make the video watching experience more smart and interactive. With the help of this feature, you can ask questions related to the video, get its summary, understand the main points and even take quizzes based on the content. This means that now YouTube is not just a video platform but has become your AI chat companion.

Where to find Ask button?

You’ll now see an Ask button with a new Gemini icon in select YouTube videos. This button is present just below the video, between the Share and Download options. This feature is available on all platforms like Android, iPhone, and Windows PC.

How does this feature work?

As soon as you click on the Ask button, a chat window opens on the screen. Here you can type the question yourself or choose one of the given suggestions like Summarize the video (give the gist of the video), Recommended Content (suggest related videos), More (give more information). After this, the answer is immediately prepared and appears on the screen with the help of Large Language Model (LLM) i.e. Gemini AI.

Which countries and users will get this feature?

This feature is currently available for both YouTube Premium and Non-Premium users. Currently it works only in English language and is active only for viewers above 18 years of age. This feature is currently available in India, America, Canada and New Zealand. YouTube is planning to roll it out in more countries in the coming months.

YouTube’s second big AI upgrade

YouTube recently introduced another AI-enabled feature that automatically upscales low-quality videos to HD (High Definition). This feature is being rolled out in a phased manner from October 29 and will soon be available to all users around the world.
