Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge YouTube says it has expanded its AI-powered auto-dubbing to “hundreds of thousands of channels” in the YouTube Partner Program that are “focused on knowledge and information.” YouTube says it will bring the feature to “other types of content soon.” What the dubs consist of depends on the language used in the original video. If it was in English to start, it’ll be translated into French, German, Hindi, Italian, Spanish, Indonesian, Japanese, and Portuguese. If the starting video was made in one of those languages, YouTube will only produce an English dub. For channels that have it, AI-dubbed videos are created automatically when the original video is uploaded, but creators can opt to preview them before they’re published. YouTube also provides options to unpublish or delete dubs, according to a support document for the feature.

Here’s an English dub example of a French video about making potatoes au gratin: However, YouTube cautions that “this technology is still pretty new, and it won’t always be perfect.” The company says it’s “working hard to make it as accurate as possible, but there might be times when the translation isn’t quite right or the dubbed voice doesn’t accurately represent the original speaker.” YouTube initially announced its tests of auto-dubbing with “hundreds” of creators in June 2023.

But if you're shopping for a wearable device to help you make the most of ChatGPT, you'll want to check out the new Solos AirGo Vision glasses. They're available for preorder for $299, which is what you'd pay for a pair of Ray-Ban Metas. But unlike those, the AirGo Vision works with ChatGPT out of the box. As a ChatGPT enthusiast, I think this kind of product might work well with ChatGPT's Advanced Voice Mode. It practically gives the AI a pair of eyes to answer questions about your surroundings in real-time. Also interesting is the privacy approach. The Solos glasses come with interchangeable frames that let you eliminate the cameras when you don't need them. Continue reading...
