On its mobile app for iOS and Android smartphones, YouTube Tests an experiments with AI-generated quizzes. These quizzes are intended to assist viewers in gaining a deeper understanding of a topic covered in an instructional video.
Additionally, the tool will assist the video-sharing platform in developing a better knowledge of the extent to which each video covers a particular subject matter.
The artificial intelligence-generated quizzes, which YouTube mentioned on its experiments website yesterday, are currently being rolled out internationally to a tiny fraction of viewers who watch “a few” educational videos, according to the company’s written statement. The quiz function is only accessible for a specific subset of the content available in the English language; these links will be displayed on the home feed, underneath the videos most recently viewed by users.
YouTube tests AI-generated quizzes as it will be fascinating to see if YouTube decides to keep this experiment as part of the platform because not all of its experiments are implemented. While browsing through videos, we are unsure of the number of people who would be interested in taking a quiz, particularly if they are no longer enrolled in school.
On the other hand, YouTube has long since established itself as a place for users to learn new things, whether it be how to change a vehicle tire or even how to perform a backflip. Users can find videos on a wide variety of topics on YouTube. “Edutainment” channels on YouTube such as TED-Ed and HowToBasic are among the most popular educational channels on the platform, boasting a total of 18.8 million and 17.3 million subscribers, respectively.
In addition, many educators use YouTube as a platform from which to generate instructional content, as well as to search for, find, and share videos with their pupils. Therefore, for those individuals who are truly interested in acquiring a more in-depth understanding of the subject matter, the new quiz feature may prove to be an efficient method to accomplish this goal.
