Google is testing a new AI-powered feature called “Ask YouTube” that allows users to search using full questions instead of simple keywords.
The tool provides text summaries, suggested videos, Shorts and highlighted clips related to the query. Users can also ask follow-up questions, making search more conversational.
The feature is currently being tested with selected YouTube Premium users in the United States. Google has not announced a wider rollout date yet.
The move is part of its broader AI push and could change how users discover tutorials, reviews and educational content on YouTube.
