With the new "Ask" button on YouTube Premium, you can ask inquiries about any content you're seeing

These days, AI most likely comes to mind when you hear the word Google. The tech behemoth is working to incorporate new AI capabilities into almost all of its offerings. Google now wants to give YouTube Premium subscribers access to a new, exclusive AI experience that isn't available to non-subscribers, after a price increase for the service.

With a new conversational AI capability, premium subscribers can interact with videos.

US subscribers of YouTube Premium are now able to access what was previously only an experiment. The new conversational AI tool is only accessible to users who are at least 18 years old and only in English at this time. Additionally, in order to access it, you must have an Android device, however this could change in the future.

Without ever leaving the YouTube app, you may use this conversational tool to find recommendations for similar content, get answers to questions about the video you are viewing, and more. What ingredients are they utilizing, you might wonder if you are watching a recipe video. You may also ask for a synopsis of the video or recommendations for more content to watch that is related to it.

Simply tap the "Ask" icon beneath the video player to utilize this new option if you are a Premium customer in the States. From there, you can formulate your own question or choose one of the suggested questions. Thanks to Gemini's power, it functions similarly to Google Photos' Ask Photos feature, which allows for natural language interaction.

This new tool, which helps you see information you might have missed while viewing, is, in my opinion, a terrific addition to YouTube. In order to attract more users and justify the increase in price for its Premium subscription, YouTube should prioritize the addition of valuable features and benefits.

In the US, a single YouTube Premium subscription now costs $13.99 per month. It has several benefits, such as:

Absence of advertisements
the capacity to save media for viewing offline
Picture-in-Picture (PiP) mode and playback adjustments allow you to watch videos on your mobile device while utilizing other apps.

our conversational AI tool is expanding to all U.S. YouTube Premium members w/ Android devices

use it to dive deeper into the content you ❤️ by asking questions about what you’re watching or for recs for similar videos!!
