This might actually be one of the few things AI could be used for. ChatGPT could download the transcript and just build a short summary.
Although chances are you're just replacing one shitty thing with a different shitty thing.
YouTube has already been helpful to a degree. Sometimes I'll open their AI summarize and it will give all the details along with timestamps. There are videos where I saw the summary and passed on watching because the video was mostly filler material.
Yeah, I think there was something like that floating around. I imagine it's costly, though, but it'd be nice to have.
Then you wouldn't watch the video and the creator just lost.
If your video can be replaced by a title, it probably wasn't with watching
Isn't that basically the point of the extension? Making sure you're not tricked into watching BS content?
