YouTube Premium has rolled out its AI-powered “Jump Ahead” feature to all its users in the US. This feature, which was tested in March, uses AI to allow users to jump to parts of a video where most viewers typically skip ahead. It’s currently available on the YouTube Android app and only for select English-language videos.
The “Jump Ahead” feature works by combining user data and AI to predict what parts of a video you’d like to watch. After opting into the experiment, users will see a “Jump Ahead” button when they double-tap to skip forward on any eligible video. Clicking the button will take you to where most viewers typically skip ahead.
However, not all videos support this feature yet. It’s an experimental feature, and YouTube has stated that it’s only available to try out until June 1. After this deadline, the platform may roll it out officially as part of its Premium subscription, or it could extend the experiment further.
