YouTube is testing several new features to enhance its platform, which may or may not be released to the general public. Here are some highlights:
- AI-Generated Live Chat Summaries: This feature provides a summary of active live chat conversations using AI, helping users catch up quickly. It’s currently available to a small percentage of viewers, primarily for English live streams with active chats.
- Google Lens Search Integration: Users can use Google Lens within the YouTube app to search for related content by taking pictures of real-life items. This feature is being tested with a small percentage of Android users.
- Channel QR Codes: YouTube is experimenting with QR codes for channels, making it easier to share and access channels. This is available to a small group of creators.
- Custom Effects for YouTube Shorts: Creators can design and publish their own effects for YouTube Shorts, adding a personal touch to their content. This feature is also in limited testing but is expected to roll out to more users later this year.
