Barely related but I’ve permanently disabled “adaptive power”. It’s only 10am but after spending a gazzillion dollars on bleeding edge silicon (and a vapor chamber!!)… the system would rather cut the pcores off at the knees (to the point where the keyboard can’t always keep up) to protect battery life in a chonkier-than ever thermal envelop…
I’m not sure where they’re all actually running to right now
Congrats to @YouTubeCreators Kane Parsons and Curry Barker on breakout movie weekends for #Backrooms and @obsessionmovie! Inspiring to see Kane and Curry join the likes of Markiplier, director of #ironlungmovie, as creators who honed their craft on @YouTube and are now expanding their creative vision to include the big screen.

Across our AI efforts at @youtube, we’re focused on building the right guardrails to protect @youtubecreators and viewers on our platform.
Over the next few weeks, we’re rolling out:
👤Access to our likeness detection technology for all channels (18+), so you can see and flag which videos are using your likeness
🏷️ More prominent AI labels on long-form videos and Shorts
🔎 New signals that automatically detect AI in a creator’s content, helping them disclose it more easily
Ridiculously excited about conversation history for Ask Studio
With this update, conversations are now automatically saved for up to 30 days. That moves Ask Studio from a single-session tool into a true creative tool that we can jam with and that retains context over time
More:
Congratulations to @jorgeramosnews and @johnnywharris on their News & Documentary Emmy wins. 🎉This incredible recognition from @TelevisionAcad proves that @youtubecreators are delivering high-quality, impactful journalism that resonates with audiences globally.
We’re making AI disclosures simpler for creators and clearer for viewers. Here's what's coming:
🏷️ Labels for realistic AI-generated content will appear on the video player for both long-form videos and on Shorts.
🔍 We’re introducing automatic AI detection to help creators label their AI content more accurately.
🪪 Plus, over the next few weeks, we’re giving all channels 18+ access to our likeness detection technology to help spot AI deepfakes. It doesn't matter how many subscribers you have, if you're monetizing or if you haven’t posted a video yet — everyone gets it.
@natecurtiss_yt Hi! To clear up any confusion, last fall, YouTube announced exclusive video drops for music artists and their fans, and this is YouTube beginning to test the feature *for music artist channels and fans* - not creator channels. Hope this helps!

Hi Greg! The goal is for people to watch the videos. There were questions that were too complex or nuanced in the past for regular search so people would just give up or click away and be frustrated. This hopefully helps people find a video or videos that really answers their questions and they value watching
Introducing Ask @YouTube, our new conversational search experience 🔎
As we showed at #GoogleIO today, Ask YouTube is a great way to explore more complex search queries, like teaching your kid how to ride a bike or planning your next trip.
Now available to Premium members in the U.S. (18+) and rolling out to all YouTube users soon.
