As AI-generated videos continue flooding the internet, YouTube is making one major change: viewers will no longer need to dig through video descriptions to figure out whether something was made with AI. The platform has announced a major update to how AI-generated and AI-altered content is labelled, introducing more visible disclosures for viewers while also launching automatic detection systems to identify videos that creators fail to disclose properly.

Towards the year-end, music streaming services would often release a recap of what you have listened to all year long. This December, YouTube is rolling out "YouTube Recap", a first-of-its-kind personalised year-end summary for its users. The feature was officially announced on YouTube’s blog.

Ever thought of watching Instagram Reels while doing something else? That hasn't been a thing before, but Instagram has been testing several new features and among them is a picture-in-picture (PiP) mode.

X is now introducing a special account called X Originals, and will focus on sharing various original content developed and published specifically for the X platform.

Back in January, Instagram introduced its subscription service for the creators to earn a profit through what they post on the social media platform. However, the subscriptions only covered minimal content, such as stories and live streams. Now, Instagram will be adding photos, videos, or Reels into the package, which is one of the most requested changes by the creators.

If you're gaming on your Sony PlayStation 5 (PS5), you can press the Share button on your controller to send screenshots or video clips to others. It's not the fastest or most convenient interface of sharing, but there hasn't been another way of doing it on your phone before. Until now, that is.

Watching videos online has become a favourite pastime for many Internet dwellers. Sometimes some people download the videos, which is possible using (sometimes sketchy) third-party extensions or sites. But what if you could do it straight from YouTube?

If you're a content creator, you may have heard of YouTube Shorts, a new short-form video feature. Well, YouTube wants to convince content creators to get on the beta and use the feature. So it has come up with a simple motivator - money.
