On Tuesday, YouTube announced that its auto-dubbing feature will soon be available to hundreds of thousands of additional channels, allowing users to create translated audio tracks for their videos.
At Vidcon last year, YouTube debuted its AI-powered auto-dubbing tool, which was initially in beta testing with a small group of content creators. Users from all around the globe may find the platform’s information easier to understand and access with this feature.
Now channels that focus on educational material, like videos that teach people how to cook or sew, can use the auto-dubbing feature. Other forms of information will soon be available as well.
To use it, just post a video like you normally would. When you upload a video to YouTube, the platform may recognize the language and automatically generate subtitles. Hindi, English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish, and Indonesian are some of the languages that this tool supports.
Auto-dubbing on YouTube is powered by Google’s Gemini technology, which can imitate human speech. Since the technology is still in its early stages of development, the business warns that the feature may not perform correctly.
The company wrote in Tuesday’s blog post, “We’re 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. We really appreciate your patience and feedback as we continue to improve.”
The business also informed creators about an upcoming update called “Expressive Speech,” which would help recreate the creator’s voice, feelings, and even the atmosphere of their workspace.
