If you edit videos for YouTube, you'll definitely be interested in the latest announcement from Made on YouTube. The platform has unveiled a series of new features designed to simplify the technical workflow so creators can focus on telling great stories. They've also introduced features to improve monetization and brand relationships, such as those we discussed in this article about Ask YouTube and Shopping. According to their Trends and Cultures report, 72% of YouTube video creators in the US between the ages of 14 and 44 have used AI to help them create and edit. Therefore, YouTube will be integrating Gemini Omni's intelligence into this process: Conversational Editing Assistant This feature, available in Shorts and the YouTube Create app, allows users to interact via voice or text commands to apply complex changes, such as automatically removing pauses, reordering scenes, or syncing audio to the music. So if this means I won't have to go through a million steps to cut silences like in Adobe Premiere, it'll definitely make my life easier. A/B Video Testing Remember the A/B testing tools for titles and thumbnails? Well, they've worked so well (with over 40 million experiments conducted since 2014) that creators can now test up to three different videos to analyze which initial hook best retains the audience. Dynamic Background Recommendations YouTube Studio will incorporate Ask Studio, capable of analyzing older videos to suggest and test updated thumbnails, helping classic content continue to attract traffic. Creators will be able to get personalized guidance on their script drafts. AI-Powered Comment Moderation They've also announced comment moderation. Once activated, the tool learns from your response style and helps you manage your community. Once they've got your tone down, you can forget about having to keep track of responding to comments and focus on creating good stories.
