# YouTube Experiments With AI-Powered Overviews in Search, Featuring Video Carousel Layout

[YouTube](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/305247/benefits-of-youtube-channel-promotion) is testing a new AI feature that makes search more informative and showcases related videos through an engaging carousel at the top of the [search results](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/160077/what-is-the-purpose-of-the-sql-where-clause-and-how-is-it-used-to-filter-search-results) page. This step is indicating YouTube's [engagement](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/54969/how-technology-is-helping-employee-engagement) with artificial intelligence in elevating the user options as a deft, fast and graphical search. The changes could greatly shift the manner of operation on the platform when it comes to finding content.

## Highlights

- YouTube [experiments](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/view/87396/gandhi-s-experiments-with-celibacy) with [AI-generated](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/305317/risk-of-using-ai-generated-content-for-a-website) summaries in search results.
- A new video carousel layout is being tested for easier content browsing.
- The AI-powered YouTube search aims to streamline [user experience](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/12731/the-importance-of-feedback-to-the-user-experience).
- The feature is part of YouTube’s broader AI innovation strategy.
- Early tests are rolling out to a limited group of users globally.

The AI enabled experiment on Youtube search provides overviews that provide important information about video without necessarily viewing the full content. These search summaries, provided by state-of-art [AI systems](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/334006/unmasking-data-poisoning-how-it-impacts-ai-systems-and-strategies-for-defense), offer faster and friendly ways in searching for information. This feature can be attributed to YouTube’s inappropriate strategy of enhancing the utilization of artificial intelligence in a bid to enhance and simplify the way its numerous audience finds content.

Next to general artificial intelligence overviews, YouTube is also redesigning the search results as carousel video. The horizontal format with scrolling also makes it easier to switch between videos, since it does not require reaching for the circular navigation device. These updates in the autonomic YouTube search are aimed to increase people’s time spent on watching and to make a search visually more appealing and smooth.

At the moment, these features are offered as beta to a limited number of users testing the platform in the YouTube application. This is a good test market that will assist in improving the utilization of YouTube in AI before developing into massive use. [Technology](https://www.mindstick.com/blog/305486/the-role-of-technology-in-improving-quality-of-life) keeps advancing, and in this instance, it speaks volumes that YouTube is constantly aspiring to out compete rivals through exploring innovative uses of search function.
