How I watch YouTube with ChatGPT, even though it can’t stream videos
One of ChatGPT's best features is the ability to summarize information, which I use regularly. While the AI has no problem reviewing text-based content like websites or large PDFs, it can't yet watch YouTube videos and summarize them or answer questions about the content in those clips.
That kind of ability will probably come to AI products in the near future. After all, companies like OpenAI, Google, and others have already given AI the ability to "see." You can feed images and real-time video to various AI models, and they'll be able to extract information. They just can't stream video clips, which is a bit of a letdown.
Still, there is a way to summarize YouTube videos with AI, and it's how I've been watching some clips for a while now. I use ChatGPT to summarize those videos even before I watch them, or at least the parts I'm interested in.
