Stop wasting time, summarize videos in literally seconds, chrome and firefox versions are not up to date and should not have any errors anymore, update if you still see errors to 1.01 and 1.07 respectively,

‎Whether you are a student trying to cram tomorrow's finals, a busy professional trying to stay informed on the latest news or just someone who values your time, this app is the thing you are missing

By using this app, you can easily get the key points and highlights of any video, without having to…

#

Mobile version is coming soon for android & ios

#

Please tell me if you get any errors, this extension is only known to work for english videos for now and polish!

#

1 hour video summarized in literally seconds

#

if you want an even more detailed summary just ask it again!

lethal kite
#

it reloaded the video constantly until i hit reload on the extention myself, then yes it basically transcripts what is spoken with bulletpoints. 8 chapters from a 7 minute video though..

#

very often it mentions, "the speaker explained this, the speaker described that etc"

hazy marten
#

@lethal kite unfortunately i cannot fix that because it's the way chatgpt handles the summary, if you want more detailed or different style of summary you need to ask it because i do often get that, that is the point of the input box after so you can ask about the video or get it to clarify

#

i did also get "the speaker" occasionally perhaps but it is correct, the ai is not given information in the prompt of who it is, sometimes it uses "the speaker" sometimes just an explanation

thorn flint
#

@hazy marten you can add a really cool feature in this where the user jump to part of a video where a particular word/phrase was said which would create a handy youtube video search system

hazy marten
#

@thorn flint will do, right now im making the ios android version which will be up in a few days, after that i will do some overhauls in features, still very early on in development

Hi

upbeat quartz
#

Hello, I've installed the Add-on on my Firefox browser but for some reason the button is always "Not available" on all videos I've played in YouTube

hazy marten
#

@upbeat quartz it will only work on videos with captions available

upbeat quartz
#

I am trying with this video with captions ON but I can't seem to get it working both in Mozilla or Chrome - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1M1IeHl_N5s

Franklin D. Roosevelt becomes president; Hitler becomes chancellor in Germany; Mussolini secures absolute power; Gandhi leads the "Salt March."

#

it was just a video for testing, nothing that I need

hazy marten
#

@upbeat quartz i looked into it and i cant find what could be causing the issue, if it doesn't work even after refreshing (keeps saying not available), update your extension version, in both firefox and chrome (it should be 1.0.1 for chrome and 1.0.7 for firefox), then make sure you have the latest version of firefox, make sure you are logged in both youtube and openai, try to disable any extension that might interfere or change youtube layout

#

Any option to install it on OperaGX?

hazy marten
#

@potent geyser added to list of things to do, will do it once the ios and android app is uploaded

balmy mirage
#

i constantly ran into network error occured issue

#

how to do about this?

hazy marten
#

@balmy mirage network error is thrown when something outside of the extensions control happens or when the server returns an error code that is not handled for like internal server error 500, this is perhaps due to the heavy load on chatgpt

#

if it happens only on one video and works fine for other videos then it might be an error happening because of the way the transcript is handled

balmy mirage
#

for me it happens on all the video

warm flax
#

how is this done?

lilac jasper
#

following

#

still cant figure out how to get it to work, pressing summarize just opens a chat

#

i can talk to it there but nothing related to summarizing happens

#

the button here doesnt do anything

#

@hazy marten explain?

#

it's one of my other extensions interfering apparently, it works fine in a private window

#

these are my extensions

hazy marten
#

@lilac jasper i don't know which would be interfering i'm not familiar with those extensions, the settings button is not yet implemented, it will soon be implemented with features like encoding to shorten summarization time & saving messages so chatgpt times you out less and resizing and repositioning etc

#

YoutubeGPT - v1.0.8 - Language Support!

#

Firefox extension now works for any language that ChatGPT supports

lilac jasper
#

sponsorblock seems to be breaking it sadly

#

kinda ironic given both extensions are about saving time

hazy marten
#

@lilac jasper that's a shame, unfortunately i don't think i can fix that

lilac jasper
#

yeah ill try to see if i can debug it but

#

any idea about this?

hazy marten
#

@lilac jasper i dont see anything wrong on my end, this means that for some reason the extension content script listening for tab changes is gone or removed or never initiated but it definitely is

bitter latch
#

@hazy marten Are you using the ChatGPT API for this extension?

rapid girder
#

Looks cool but cannot get it to work.

#

It also botches YouTube as well. Removes the YouTube Logo from the website, chat dropdown is in a pretty wonky state with not being able to view any of the dropdown items unless you hover over them.

hazy marten
#

@rapid girder send screenshot of what it looks like

#

@bitter latch ChatGPT

bitter latch
#

Interesting, can you elaborate? You're able to use ChatGPT without the API?

hazy marten
#

it is the chatgpt api

#

@rapid girder this is what it should look like, without the orange when chatgpt is working again

rapid girder
hazy marten
#

it seems like a minor error, i will fix it thank you for notifying me i did not realise it did that

rapid girder
#

and here's one with text in the drop down and not being able to read what is in the drop down

hazy marten
#

that is a bigger issue, i will fix it, on firefox the extension will update quickly but chrome it will take a day or two

minor pivot
#

Mine just keeps reloading the page whenever I try to use it? Any advice?

hazy marten
#

@minor pivot which browser are you using, and did it work in the past?

rapid girder
#

Do I have to tell it to "continue" when it stops giving me text?

#

on a video summary

hazy marten
#

@rapid girder that is a chatgpt problem unfortunately i can't fix that, you can just say "repeat the summary to me"

bitter latch
#

@hazy marten Thanks for that clarification. Any suggestions on how other developers can get access to the ChatGPT API?

hazy marten
#

you can also ask it to rewrite the summary in a different style if you are not satisfied with the initial summary

#

@bitter latch no problem, you can use dev tools to see how it works, send a message and check dev tools network tab*

#

most likely they will have official support soon with documentation

minor pivot
#

I'm using chrome, it works when I first got it, was just slow to begin with. Now If it happens to load in when I click summarize it just sits there

hazy marten
#

@minor pivot this could be due to ChatGPT being down, did you get this error when you were 100% sure chatgpt was working fine?

minor pivot
#

Yes

#

Finally got the video to load in and now it seems to be processing the video

hazy marten
#

does it give you any error in the status bar, like an orange or red status bar?

#

@minor pivot i believe chatgpt is down at the moment, i cant access it

#

but if you can then its a different problem

minor pivot
#

This is what I see right now

hazy marten
#

will test it out now on chrome

#

@minor pivot when you click summarize, did you see any loading dots? ... .. .? or did it just stay as the > icon?

#

@rapid girder made a fix for both issues, it should be up on firefox in a few minutes as version 1.1.1

rapid girder
hazy marten
#

yes I am still trying to find more errors because of how long chrome takes to review and update so I dont want to publish and then immediately discover another error

#

its up and running, youtube logo is fine, everything seems fine and no more whited out search results, need to wait for chatgpt to allow me to login before i can fully confirm but it looks good

#

make sure its 1.1.1 and not an older version

#

@minor pivot i am going to try to replicate your error soon and try to fix it, thank you for telling me about the error

#

for new-comers:

Firefox (latest & greatest version): https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/youtubegpt/

Chrome (will be up to date with firefox soon expect minor errors and bugs refresh if bugs to try to fix for now): https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/youtubegpt/gidcfccogfdmkfdfmhfdmfnibafoopic

minor pivot
#

I only see the 1.0.1 version

hazy marten
#

@minor pivot for chrome its 1.0.1 for firefox is 1.1.1, chrome will be updated soon, trying to get all the errors fixed before publishing because chrome takes a long time

minor pivot
#

Seems like Dark reader extension is causing a lot of the proble

#

problem

jovial stag
#

Just installed this on both Brave and Chrome, but on youtube, the extension doesn't seem to be active, and indeed no summary button is visible Am i doing something wrong?
Brave had some extensions like dark reader that i suspected could be causing issues, but on a blank chrome installation i ran into the same issue.

#

I notice that the allowed access site is ://.youtube.com/*
Will that work if the address is simply youtube.com/******** ? Or will it need the period first
Hm, probably red herring since chrome was just hiding the www. part

#

Okay, guessing it's just chrome issue, it works fine on firefox.

bitter latch
#

Captcha problems?

#

I got it to work. I had to open chat.openapi.com in another tab and pass the captcha test

hazy marten
#

@jovial stag chrome is not up to date, i am about to upload the latest version to chrome just like i did for firefox after i fix this major error i found

#

@bitter latch yes sometimes cloudflare asks for the captcha so you will have to do it manually or maybe i can automate it to, ill see

#

@minor pivot i believe i found your problem, i am fixing it now

jovial stag
#

GPT is at capacity right now johnny iirc

minor pivot
#

Is this GPT supposed to give me a summary after every transcript section?

hazy marten
#

@minor pivot no it is not i tried to engineer a prompt so it only replies with "understood" however sometimes it ignores it, prompts will be improved but for now it will be slightly slower sometimes unfortunately

bitter latch
#

@hazy marten I had a look at the source. It looks like you're opening a new tab at https://chat.openai.com/chat and when that happens, you're able to grab the user's access token to access the ChatGPT's hidden API. Is that correct?

hazy marten
#

@bitter latch it uses chatgpt api yes

#

1.1.4 released on firefox, it fixes infinite refreshing however it does not fully handle errors so you will have to simply refresh and try again in case of an error

#

cant do error fixing at the moment i am timed out, error fixing will happen soon for chrome

iron pike
#

This pops up in the console

keen echo
#

I think the extension got removed from the chrome web store though the extension still works for those who have it

#

For both Chrome ( I am using it on Microsoft Edge) and Firefox extensions: after trying different videos, reloading the pages. clicking the summarize button only opens the empty box with the 3 dots loading. It does not work for 99% of the time. If you constantly(sometimes only 1 or 2 reloads) try to get it to work: The status bar displays at the bottom "Rate limited by chatGPT. Reset your details for you. Change your account and refresh or wait 1 hour". you get the 1 hour limit on your account

#

it's extremely inconsistent, I am on the latest version of Firefox and the extension does not work for me even after disabling all the other extensions. I have tried literally everything. It does not even show a message at the bottom of the summary box(status bar) in orange and blue like the chrome extension does.

The chrome extension works but only after hours of trying for a single video after which it goes back to not working or shows the message in the status bar "Rate limited by chatgpt". It's starting to put the 1 hour limit with only one or two tries now as I mentioned above.

rapid girder
#

Yep it's not on the Chrome webstore anymore and it causing a bunch of issues for me (constantly refreshing YT pages)

glossy valve
#

Do we have an API for this?

hazy marten
#

@rapid girder @keen echo was removed because of spam, "yellow nickel" although i don't know why now, they didn't have a problem with it before, perhaps it was because i was promoting it on other extensions, i will reupload it soon

#

it should be fixed now, and the prompts have been improved to be more detailed and consistent

#

uploading firefox soon and chrome now given the review time it will probably be up in 2 days for chrome and in 10 minutes for firefox

#

chrome will be up again in 1 - 2 days

#

@glossy valve its the chatgpt api

#

YoutubeGPT - v1.1.5 - Firefox version fixed, Chrome 1 - 2 days until published

glossy valve
keen echo
#

same issue on Firefox version 1.1.5: stuck on 3 dots loading after clicking the summarize button( it works with shorter videos sometimes). when I refresh the page to try again: The status bar displays at the bottom "Rate limited by chatGPT. Reset your details for you. Change your account and refresh or wait 1 hour". I get the 1 hour limit on my account even though I have not asked a single question to chatgpt.

hazy marten
#

@keen echo will look into it though i think i know what is causing it. i'll add resizing too and repositioning of the text box.

#

@glossy valve it's chatgpt

glossy valve
bitter latch
#

@glossy valve What the extension is doing is opening a new tab at https://chat.openai.com/chat, scraping the OpenAI access token, then impersonating you to make requests to the chatgpt API using that access token. If you look at your chat history in ChatGPT, you'll see the questions and responses.

#

I'd like to get access to the chatgpt API as well. The extension is just impersonating.

#

@glossy valve This post claims you can access the chatgpt API using model: chatbot. https://www.analyticsinsight.net/how-to-run-the-chatgpt-locally-using-a-docker-desktop/

I tried it but it didn't work for me. I got this error:

{
        message: 'That model does not exist',
        type: 'invalid_request_error',
        param: null,
        code: null
      }

You can use your personal computer to run the ChatGPT locally using a docker desktop. You must be familiar with the installation of the OpenAI API client.

night pelican
#

Opera gx version?

hazy marten
#

@bitter latch that is what it does, why so mad

#

@night pelican soon

bold dove
hazy marten
#

@bold dove no but the mobile app will be up in a few days whenever they approve, i'll notify you when it is

bold dove
#

If you have submitted for approval, you can send me the apk also for testing purpose

I am a proficient ethical hacker

bitter latch
#

@hazy marten Not mad at all. @glossy valve asked how it's done.

glossy valve
iron pike
#

It works for me now! Althought only on a private window Firefox. There may an extension interferring, will have to check

#

I've determined that the extension, 'Sponsorblock for YouTube' can interfere with the chat and not allow it to run

hazy marten
#

@bitter latch very well then

#

@iron pike yes another person has had a problem with sponsor block interfering

#

@bold dove i would love your help in testing the mobile version, however i do not have a lot of time at the moment so later would be better

#

Firefox update about to drop, chrome update is coming 1 -2 days perhaps sooner

#

it has improved prompts, the ui scaling is better and it is more user-friendly

#

and of course the infinite loading glitch should actually be fixed because it was caused by the aforementioned update on OpenAI's side

#

YoutubeGPT - v1.1.6 - Fixed Major Issues (should be fixed) - Chrome coming very soon

#

chrome version has been submitted for review, probably 1-2 days, maybe sooner given that they only took it down because of me promoting on other pages.

hazy marten
#

let me know if there are any errors with the firefox one, i am trying to fix them whenever i have time

hollow slate
harsh ore
#

does vid needs captions or transcription to work ?

hazy marten
#

@hollow slate can you give more detail on what happened?

#

@harsh ore yes, for now but i have a solution to make it work on any video

#

YoutubeGPT summarizes video then tells you the exact timestamps when the sponsor starts and finishes (checked and verified it is to the point with precision without even prompt guiding)

harsh ore
#

👍 good luck

hazy marten
#

almost all videos do have captions so it should not be a problem however the idea i have would primarily be for videos in other languages which usually (at this moment, maybe later youtube will fully integrate captions for all languages) do not have captions and also new videos which can be anywhere from 0 to 30 minutes for captions to appear, a more minor issue but it's a convenience thing

keen echo
#

same issue even after updating. both chrome and Firefox v1.1.6 show the infinite 3 dots loading after clicking summarize, reloading does not help

solar needle
#

Same issue Firefox on Mac

light lagoon
#

@hazy marten i have an issue where it makes youtube weird when the extension is on

#

it makes the youtube logo at the top invisible and it makes the text for search suggestions the same as the background

iron pike
#

@hazy marten Is it possible in the future to have this not rely on our own OpenAI accounts, and print the information by itself? Like API projects such as the Merlin personal assistant

hazy marten
#

@light lagoon you need to update your version, remove and add the extension again or just click update in your extension page, if it is version 1.1.6 and it is still doing that then tell me

#

@keen echo @solar needle fixing now, it is because of cloudflare

#

@iron pike i haven't heard of that, is that some sort of open source version of chatgpt?

hazy marten
#

fixed, uploading latest version, will be up in ~10 minutes on firefox, chrome is still pending review

hazy marten
#

@iron pike will do when i have the time

#

YoutubeGPT - v1.1.9 - Fixed Infinite Loading Dots

#

chrome extension version should be released today, given that it has been 2 days since i submitted which was the average response time

frail basin
#

@hazy marten this is INCREDIBLE.... what's happening? Is there still anything for this AI to do?

hazy marten
#

@frail basin thank you, i think it is very useful which is why i want to share it

frail basin
#

I actually had an idea for a tool that first transcribes the video, rewrites the transcription and automatically saves into Google doc or somesuch. Think that would still be useful?

hazy marten
#

@frail basin i can add that feature, it could be another useful automation, it will most likely be in the settings where you can enable/disable auto-saving to google docs

frail basin
hazy marten
#

@frail basin they sure do

keen echo
#

on v1.1.9 it works for videos which are from 10 min to 1hr long. for videos that are 2hr+ long (most people may use it for videos 2hr+ long). it's having the same issues as earlier. infinite loading dots and few reloads puts 1 hour limit

marsh pecan
#

is there any guarantee that the extension is safe for use

hazy marten
#

@keen echo i will look into it

#

@marsh pecan yes it safe to use. as for openai, openai seems to have no problem with such use despite official api support has not yet been released.

last pilot
# frail basin You don't have to bother with that though. Although people love convenience.

I've got some C++ code that converts srt files (which you can use a 3rd party service to download from a video) into a more readable txt file - its got bugs though, like when two lines of text appear under one timestamp, also depends what service you use to download the srt file (formatting may differ slightly)

gleaming dagger
#

I just get infinite refreshing and a tab opens and closes

#

Using firefox

hazy marten
#

@gleaming dagger did you check that you have version 1.1.9, also did you check that you have access to chatgpt

#

i can't test the extension at the moment in order to try to replicate your error because i am not able to sign in because of the "at capacity" but i will try to when i can

gleaming dagger
#

also tried reinstalling the extension still having the same problem

minor pivot
#

Love what you're doing here, really would be a great tool for me. please let me know when the new chrome version is up! Thanks

hazy marten
#

@gleaming dagger i will try to replicate it

#

@minor pivot i will let you know, they sure are taking a lot of time, it's already been almost 3 days

tidal moon
#

Oof, sad how it doesn't have for chrome anymore. You can give a unpacked version of it so they can just put it on chrome so users don't have to wait for youtubegpt to come back for chrome

chilly abyss
#

chrome extension is removed by google? please update into a direct download link, thanks

hazy marten
#

Expect minor errors if so just refresh

#

YoutubeGPT - Chrome Release! Finally

#

Chrome version: [Just tested, it doesn't work, need to sync with firefox again, its 3 versions behind]

Let me know if there are any errors.

hazy marten
#

@chilly abyss firefox or chrome?

chilly abyss
#

lemme know if you fixed it, i can be your beta tester

hazy marten
#

@chilly abyss i have the fixed version running but due to how slow chrome reviewers are i couldn't upload it because i already uploaded the broken version, i'll upload the newest version but i'm making sure that every single possible error is fixed that i can because it will take ~ 2 days for it to update

chilly abyss
#

i see, thanks

hazy marten
#

hmm it just stopped generating suddenly bug

#

@hazy marten send screenshot of what chatgpt sent at the website, it might just be because chatgpt couldn't finish it

#

@hazy marten chatgpt website had the full version

#

the extension stopped writing

#

@hazy marten can you send a link to the video it was used on, it is either a network error or an error handling the transcript

#

@hazy marten did you use the chrome or firefox version

#

@hazy marten Chrome version

#

@hazy marten i can't replicate the error on the video, it loads the full summary, the error you get is probably because the chrome one is 3 versions behind the firefox one, i don't recommend using it at the moment, the new updated version wont have such errors most likely and it will take about ~1-2 days for chrome to review and publish

#

Ok

#

YoutubeGPT - Chrome Latest Version 1.1.9 ~1-2 Days

ruby summit
#

When I click the summarize button, the window opens but nothing else happens. When i ask it specifically to summarize it doesn't know what I refer to.

icy stag
#

I have the firefox 1.1.9 Version and for me it doesn't give a summary but instead ask for a prompt and when I say for example "summarize "just opens chatgpt in a backround tab and closes it again almost immediately while on the youtube website it just gives a messages concerning cloudflare

iron pike
#

@hazy marten would it be possible to make sure https://music.youtube.com is blacklisted from the extension? whenever the next song plays it reloads the page and pauses the song

iron pike
hazy marten
#

@icy stag @ruby summit are these problems one-off or every time you use it

#

@steep surge

jade ibexBOT
ruby summit
hazy marten
#

@ruby summit can you try to find the element with that selector? if its not there it may be because another extension is interfering

ruby summit
#

I turned off SponserBlock, now it works!

#

Thanks

#

Is there a workaround to make it work with SponserBlock enabled?

hazy marten
#

@ruby summit i will make a far more refined version soon however i am just busy with school and also i need to improve the app version for release

ruby summit
#

Not urgent. Thanks for the extension!

hazy marten
#

For new-comers: Chrome one is broken, don't use it, fixed version will be here in 2 days (sorry chrome is unbearably slow at updating the extension)

use firefox one if you can

hazy marten
#

@iron pike added, new firefox version is 1.2.1

#

if you get rate limited error on firefox but you aren't rate limited just refresh for now and try again

iron pike
#

thanks!

daring walrus
#

Is there a way to decide which language it has ChatGPT respond in ? I am getting German responses, when I want English. What ist the language based on ?

#

I don't see a setting in the extensions settings to set a language

hazy marten
#

@daring walrus are you using the chrome or firefox version, also can you link the video in question so i can test it, it should be using your default language on youtube, (previous message didn't send for some reason)

daring walrus
hazy marten
#

@daring walrus i do not recommend using the chrome one at this moment because it is broken, the updated version is coming in 2 days because chrome is super slow at updating extensions

daring walrus
hazy marten
#

@daring walrus very interesting that it worked for you, well that is great and im glad it works now

daring walrus
hazy marten
#

@daring walrus not at the moment, the firefox one is just more reliable most people find however I will be added a lot more features after the app version is released

daring walrus
#

especially for longer videos you aren't sure are worth watching in full

hazy marten
#

exactly so, i'm glad you see the value as i am trying to get more people to see its value as well

#

For new-comers: Chrome one is broken, don't use it, fixed version will be here in 2 days (sorry chrome is unbearably slow at updating the extension)

daring walrus
#

@hazy marten if you ask a question after been given the summary, does it start a new thread? I had the example that it said "The fourth actor, Brendan Gleeson then said..." and Brendan Gleeson isn't in the video, Brendan Fraser is (and Collin Ferrell, who played in a movie with Brendan Gleeson and probably mentions his name a few times).
Anyway I then asked a follow up question: was the fourth actor really Brendan Gleeson? and it responds confused

I am not sure what you are referring to with "the fourth actor" and "Brendan Gleeson". Can you please provide more context

#

I mean this is more an issue with ChatGPT obviously, but just my first experience with the plugin.

hazy marten
#

i am not sure because for me it doesn't work at all, check ChatGPT to see if it started a new thread, chrome one is quite buggy sometimes

#

@daring walrus if you can link the video i can test it with the latest version, this will help to see if it is present there too or not

hazy marten
#

ah yes well that is another problem, because it is a youtube transcript it cannot differentiate between multiple people talking vs 1

daring walrus
#

I see two threads created by the addon, one where I got the German response and one where I got the English response (after changing youtube language) but then no third thread for my question (but I also don't see the question in any of those threads)

hazy marten
#

i will try to ask it a question after it loads the summary to see if it does the same

@spare gyro chrome one does not work well at this moment, update is coming in 2 days because chrome is slow to update the extension. But you can try to refresh and try again, if it doesn't work then unfortunately it means that the chrome one does not work and you will have to wait 2 days and update the extension then it will work

#

@daring walrus i have a possible solution in mind for this, it is quite ambitious so it will have to be implemented in the future

hazy marten
#

@spare gyro thanks i will, i'll notify you when the fixed chrome version is released

#

@daring walrus i get the same error, the confused ChatGPT error you got was almost certainly because of the overwhelming nature of the video in terms of who is talking, i checked ChatGPT and all of its answers were in the same thread so if you got separate threads then this is fixed in the newest version however the core problem remains but it is out of my ability to fix at this moment

hazy marten
#

chrome update in less than 2 days (out of my control, chrome is very slow to update) , use firefox for now, app coming soon as well

desert ether
#

Hello, i love your extension. Its so useful. But, can you add other languages? if you need help, i can do somethings about Turkish. (I'm using Firefox.)
+Its not so good on theatre mode.

hazy marten
#

@desert ether thank you, yes i will add full language support soon and i will also improve the theatre mode experience, firefox will be updated the soonest whenever i get the time, right now im working on the mobile version

@hazy marten i just found your project. I was building an Android app to summarize YouTube videos myself the last few days (just for myself as a hobby). Do you mind sharing some infos? Ran into a few problems:

  1. How do you summarize very long videos? For everything longer than about 10 minutes i seem to get a 401 because of max tokens reqxhed per request
  2. What api/library do you use to get the transcript from YouTube? I know there is a python library, I'm developing in c# however
  3. Do the users have to provide their own openai api key?

Thanks 👍

twin anchor
#

Is this possible to use on lectures not on youtube?

#

Also, it is not working at all

sudden cosmos
#

it does not work for me it just loads

hazy marten
#

@twin anchor @sudden cosmos are you using firefox or chrome

#

@meager plume you need to split the videos into chunks, i used standard fetch function to get the youtube transcript from a youtube video url and users do not need to provide an openai api key becuase it is gotten for them automatically for convenience sake

meager plume
#

Can you elaborate what you mean by standard fetch function?
And do i understand correctly, the user provide their openai login and your program gets their api key automatically?
Please feel free not to answer, I'd totally understand 👍

hazy marten
#

@meager plume the app is being built not in java but react native, so its just the standard javascript fetch, as for the api key it depends whether or not you are using chatgpt or gpt3, if using the latter then yes that would probably be how you would get it however for chatgpt you would need to get more creative

I will do a massive overhaul of refactoring and remaking the chrome version over the weekend because it's so full of problems, if you can, use the firefox one because as far as I know it runs very smoothly, I will be done with the mobile version by the end of today so over the weekend I can fully remake the extension for chrome so that it is as good as the firefox one

daring walrus
#

I guess I will just wait for the overhaul 🙂

meager siren
#

Tried using this w/ Edge

#

I'm not really sure what's wrong

#

tried disabling adblocks and some other extensions I thought that were causing it

cunning rivet
#

Can I ask you @hazy marten what kind of personal data do they store?

hazy marten
#

@meager siren i have not tested it on edge so it may be prone to such errors

#

@cunning rivet all data is stored locally on your browser local storage, it stores your theme choice ( dark or light ), the access token to make requests to chatgpt backend api, a cookie string to get session token and your chatgpt profile picture link as well as an empty array for message history ( a future feature), the source code is the most transparent of all summarizer extensions

hazy marten
#

For anyone that is interested you can use this extension to feed ChatGPT context on things like events after 2021 and most especially educational videos, normally chatgpt is not very good at understanding high level education topics and flat out lies to you but if you summarize a video lets say on organic chemistry at the undergrad level it will “learn” from the video and will be better equipped to assist in the topics discussed in the video than if you just asked ChatGPT about that topic

pale valve
#

@hazy marten Hi, I've been trying to use the extension on both Chrome and FireFox and it keeps opening ChatGPT and closing it straight away. It says 'Cloudfare check required' then ' Refreshed successfully! Retrying previous request in 2 seconds' This keeps repeating whilst opening and closing ChatGPT... Thanks in advance 🙂

hazy marten
#

@pale valve I can't seem to replicate your error, are you sure you are using the latest version of the firefox one? it should be version 1.2.1 for firefox and 1.1.9 for chrome. Also did it work for you before or was it always like this?

meager siren
#

His issue was what I was experiencing too

#

Fixed it by installing Firefox and using it there. Need to mention that issue happened while trying to use it in Edge, I don't know why

daring blade
#

@hazy marten Will you opensource it?

#

i dont trust it, what if it has malware?

hazy marten
#

@daring blade it is open source, it is a chrome/firefox extension which are open source by default, the code is well commented and made very easy to read unlike the obfuscated code of other extensions which attempt to carry out the same function to a lesser degree of user satisfaction

@hazy marten Doesn't work for me either, I use Opera GX and have installed the extension via the Chrome Web Store. Also tested it with Chrome itself and it doesn't work with that either.

@granite oak it's an extension/ soon to be a mobile app that summarizes whole youtube videos in usually seconds, and allows you to ask follow up questions about the video

hazy marten
#

Beta version of the app version, beautiful, simple, user interface, nearly 100% automated, attached is a demonstration on android emulator of the lightmode version, i will post the ios one soon.

#

no faked generation, the entire flow was called from the app and retrieved right from ChatGPT (NOT GPT3) hence indicated by the prebuilt formatting, I will post a full demonstration video soon of the entire app flow.

#

i am currently looking for beta testers to test the beta version of this app (completely free) to find errors and bugs and provide feedback before full release, type HERE or dm me if interested

#

if you want to test this app in beta please let me know HERE or in dms, i will post more demonstrations of the app, there are many cool features not yet shown/ implemented yet

#

the extensions are being fixed tomorrow as i have time then, here's what im implementing:

** No more refreshing before youtube videos, I found a better system**
More automated
Resizable GUI
Repositionable GUI
Some Settings
Encoding, for longer videos this allows you to save more than 20% characters = fewer messages = less rate limits
Trying to find what is causing errors like @icy stag , @pale valve , @fleet jetty and others have experienced

tight laurel
#

Hi All, can anyone explain whats the purpose of this extension?

hazy marten
#

@tight laurel it summarizes youtube videos using ChatGPT, the purpose is to save time as it can summarize most videos and give very descriptive key points on the video in a structured, easy-to-read format and allows you to ask questions about what happens in the video which gives rise to its secondary purpose which is correcting its poor knowledge of higher education topics as it can “learn” from the video the correct information

manic pulsar
granite oak
#

@hazy marten what do you mean by it can “learn” from the video? Are you saying that it’s taking the information from the video and training itself to learn it? I thought that chat gpt is not constantly training itself? That’s why it only know things up to 2021?

dry barn
hazy marten
#

@manic pulsar chrome one is broken for some users, I am fixing it today after the beta release of the app

#

@granite oak if ChatGPT thinks 1 + 1 = 3 it can be educated by an educational video which will correct its knowledge so that if you ask it again this time it will give the correct answer 2, this applies to higher education topics which ChatGPT has poor knowledge or flat-out wrong knowledge on, it does not learn in the sense of machine learning, it learns in the sense like you do, you watch a video and you learn about whatever the video talks about, if i feed it a video about organic chemistry it will have objectively better knowledge on organic chemistry than before in the confines of that conversation which makes it far more useful for studying higher educational topics.

#

@dry barn Hi, I'm about to release the beta in 30 minutes because I'm making a few fixes and improvements, please dm me your email that is associated with your google play store account and then I can add it to the list of testers in my play console.

is this gpt3 no it is definitely not GPT3, it is the latest and greatest ChatGPT, this has taken a lot of time to get working given there is no official api
is it free? yes it is completely free in beta

if you are a tester and have found any problems or possible improvements to the app please type here about the error or dm me

Features of the app:• The only app which actually usees ChatGPT (a lot of fakes and some apps just show a WebView of ChatGPT website)
• Nearly 100% automated for your convenience
• Can almost any-length summarize videos in great detail, (those with captions which is basically all videos)
• Easy to use, user-interface (uploading demonstration soon)
• Constantly being improved

Live summarization removed for performance and reliability reasons, will be added back when I figure out a better way to support it most likely in full release or when official api is released.

Upcoming features
• Many upcoming features, not disclosing right now but they are massive for time saving and productivity

#

@granite oak it would help with that significantly given that the youtube video you provide it provides accurate information on the physics topic which is most of them, it can be a very useful tool for such a case of correcting its knowledge and then you can even ask follow up questions about the video and by extension that topic

granite oak
#

@hazy marten I am getting I apologize, but I'm unable to provide you with answers to the questions based on the summary or video transcript that you provided, as I do not have access to the information you are referring to. Can you please provide me with more context or clarify what you are looking for? it seems like it’s not remembering the video transcript that YouTubeGPT sent it. Do you know why?

hazy marten
#

@granite oak this is the work of changes on ChatGPTs side whether intentional or not I don’t know, perhaps it will fix itself whenever they update ChatGPT again

granite oak
hazy marten
#

@granite oak again this used to work very consistently however it seems that whatever changes they made it has stopped it working as consistently, i will find some alternative or some specific prompt, probably they will patch that one too but most likely they do not like how resource intensive such applications are, with 100 users summarizing videos with on average 20k characters = 2,000,000 tokens, of course they are using this for long videos and not just one so that's easily tens of millions of tokens with very small number of users.

#

demonstration too big to upload going to upload to youtube and post here

vale jackal
#

Do you still need testers?

hazy marten
#

@vale jackal yes however there is a problem at the moment, if you want to test you need to have an OpenAI account that you made using email and password because sign in with google does not work via the app (google doesn't allow it anymore)

vale jackal
hazy marten
#

dm me your email if you want or type it here

vale jackal
#

Oh I see, is it Android only?

#

Well then my bad, I only have an iPhone, sorry

@vale jackal for now yes, soon will be ios slightly different process for ios

vale jackal
#

Okay, thanks, i will have a look at it later then :)

#

login flow demonstration, less than 30 second setup, fully automated, 1 click, sign in with google (just added, used to not work)

#

lag you see is due to emulator recording

hazy marten
#

It seems as though the problems with ChatGPT's memory has gotten so bad that it can't summarize videos well anymore or makes up summaries for any longer than like 8 minute videos.

#

I have a temporary fix coming for it which will enable it to once again summarize in full detail and full quality however it will be at the expense of the "Ask questions about the video" feature

#

Hopefully by the time I'm making it they will have improved its quality back so that it can remember like it used to as it is undoubtedly caused by OpenAI trying to accommodate more users by lowering the quality of ChatGPT because most users just want to ask normal questions however this has come at the cost of being able to summarize it. Another alternative is GPT3 powered summaries however that has the same problem of not being able to ask questions about the video as well as being costly over time. Each summary would cost the user 0.10 $ may not be much for some and it may be worth it for some as it is essentially buying time but it is not a pretty alternative but is there.

hazy marten
#

It seems the quality has improved once again, maybe still need to change the prompts to be better.

hazy marten
#

for mobile

hazy marten
#

If ChatGPT is down this will not work well or at all but it does work whenever ChatGPT works

hazy marten
#

Update released (23) with some optimisations, better system, less lag, now will inform you of more errors than before if any occur.

hazy marten
#

Update (24) Way faster summaries, way better quality, now works in spite of the trash memory of ChatGPT, more error handling, less UI clutter

@stable storm next update will allow most countries to install it

olive shadow
#

learn german

granite sentinel
hazy marten
#

@granite sentinel you did say you were having problems wit hit

#

Here is another demonstration of ChatGPT powered app, here you can see the improved summarisation speed and quality, the summary generation is started almost instantly even for a 42 minute video and with the heavy load and traffic on ChatGPT, so it has the potential to go even faster especially if there are any pro plan/ paid users using it, this applies to any-length youtube videos due to new system implementations which are way faster than the previous one.

#

though the speed at which it generates the actual summaries is not as fast as it should be and is most likely due to the heavy load and traffic for ChatGPT

Hey @hazy marten , just tried out the Chrome Extension on Opera GX (you can utilize chrome extensions seamlessly on it) but it seemed to not work. When I tried to summarize it hit a rate limit. I imagine this is because of the use of a different browser but nonetheless wanted to let you know.

rapid wolf
#

The extension is reloading the video infinitely

hazy marten
#

@cunning kayak @rapid wolf the extension is broken for many people for chrome, the firefox one works however I recommend using the app as it is the latest and greatest version with the best performance, most features and best speeds and quality of summaries. I will be adding updates to the extensions soon which will fix your problems with it most likely however I am primarily focusing on the app right now.

hazy marten
#

New update will be released whenever Google approves but usually it is in within a few hours so look out for that one.

#

What countries are allowed to download the app?

hazy marten
#

@rapid wolf newest update will make it available in all countries, I set it previously for only North America and Oceania for testing advertisements though right now there will be no advertisements until the full release and is completely free to use without any payments or ads.

#

Alright, could you let me know when the app is available in all countries? I would like to use it

mental pine
#

Why it is showing "Not available" ?

hazy marten
#

@mental pine video must have captions or may be error refresh if error otherwise it means that the video doesn’t have captions

#

Update (26) Releasing today: Better app performance, slightly faster summary speeds, smoother generation, Spanish, German, French support

hazy marten
#

New improvements: Summarization speed increase, summarisation smoothness increase, more optimised & efficient, summarisation detail and quality improvement

#

slight lag on video is an artifact of the emulator recorder, there is no such lag in the actual app.

#

this is with the ChatGPT free plan which most users use, if anyone does have access to the paid plan then i assume this would be insanely quick

And does it conflict with other extensions?

hazy marten
#

@manic pulsar soon

#

@north chasm it is known to conflict with SponsorBlock and maybe others, Yandex is not officially supported but I will look into official support for Yandex as well as OperaGX and others, the best version, fastest & most robust is the android version

#

Next Update (28) - Small but big:
Fixed "Infinite" Waiting For ChatGPT to respond issue aka captcha support

Release Date: 3 - 4 hours from now whenever reviewers approve

hazy marten
#

Due to popular demand I am now working on the new and improved version of the Chrome & Firefox version in that order, I can assure you that it will be an order of magnitude better than all of the competitors in terms of features, efficiency, ease of use and automation

Android Update (29):

  1. Fixed onboarding language selector
  2. Better summaries, shorter for short videos and longer for long videos
amber prism
#

Is this normal, I have tried with different videos but I always end up with this error ;!

hazy marten
#

@amber prism This can sometimes happen for videos in different languages, I have a fix for it, it will most likely be out tomorrow and this problem will go away

hazy marten
#

@amber prism hi, the fixes should be out and working, make sure to update the app and let me know if the issue persists

#

⚠️ Chrome extension has been fixed, newest version make sure you have 1.2.2 ⚠️

amber prism
#

Now I am getting this error

#

And I have tried signing in again

hazy marten
#

@amber prism go to the settings tab at the bottom right and sign out, wait 4 seconds then re setup your credentials then should be fine, this is quite a rare error even outside of the app

hazy marten
#

Fixed chrome extension demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCE2OwfZR2c

#

🔧 Fixes & Improvements:

  1. Faster Summaries, usually nearly instant generation depending on ChatGPT load
  2. Summaries are now more representative than before meaning they are more relevant and pertaining to the whole video rather than just a small portion
  3. Better tuned summaries, longer when needed, shorter when needed
  4. No more annoying refreshing every video change
  5. Better & cleaner formatting of text

Release date: whenever google approves, probably 11 February

@hazy marten
on brave he does not manage to make it sum up he seeks but never finds!

lilac jasper
#

not sure if you updated it since but in firefox it really messes the video layout up

#

adds random padding to the video and messes with tags and other things above the video name

hazy marten
#

@lilac jasper firefox has not updated since whenever it was last updated, if you want the best experience use the android version or chrome when it gets approved (tomorrow) or wait for ios one (Monday-Tuesday), firefox will get its update in due time

lilac jasper
#

okay

keen canopy
#

Awesome tool. It would be too much to ask for an option to select the language in which the summary is generated?

lilac jasper
#

im not the creator but while they might need to add a ui component, i think they would just need to add a sentence into the request

hazy marten
#

@keen canopy in the android version you can click on the bottom right settings tab and select language there from 6 languages, in chrome there is no support yet but in version 1.2.3 (next update) there will be language support for 10+ languages, if you have an iphone the ios one will be releasing in the coming days (i'd say Monday) after the app gets reviewed, it will also support 6 languages

hazy marten

#

@hazy martenHi, is this YouTubeGPT the same thing as your SummarizerGPT?

hazy marten
#

@fallow vault yes

vast rock
#

the chrome extension still not working! when will it be fixed?

hazy marten
#

@vast rock please elaborate instead, 1. are you using version 1.2.2, 2. what is your operating system, 3. have you disabled other extensions and then test if it works then 4. are you logged into chatgpt at https://chat.openai.com/auth/login 5. what browser are you using

#

If you want something to work 100% of the time I suggest you use the mobile version instead for android, tomorrow the IOS app will release so there will be no need to use any extension at all as anyone with a mobile device can use it, the mobile versions are nearly guaranteed to work as their system is the most robust yet and support 10+ languages.

Good work but there are many apps already running that do this exact thing to any audio,video....
What makes your unique @hazy marten

hazy marten
#

@gilded pine I have struggled to find one, please can you direct me to one, As far as I know no apps on either the play store nor the app store create summaries in general and in the rare cases they do none of them compare to the quality and represenatation of the video as this app does thanks to the use of ChatGPT which as far as I know has not been used for this specific purpose in any apps at all. These summaries are high quality and fully representative, they are well formatted and easy to read, it can summarize any length of video be it 5 minutes or 1 hour, all this information can be found on the website so I am confused especially given your very brief message history on the sincerity of your question.

#

⚠️✅Chrome version fixed again, problem was due to OpenAI changes

vast rock
#

Oh my goodness, I've been using ChatGPT IOS app to summarize videos the last few days, and let me tell you, it's been an absolute game-changer! I've tried a few chrome extensions in the past, (the YouTubeGPT extension doesn’t work for me on mac). One of the best things about this app is that it's available on iOS, which is incredibly convenient. As we all know, downloading subtitles on a mobile device can be quite the hassle, but with this app, that's not an issue at all! I can't believe how amazing it is, the developer truly outdid themselves!

There are two things that make this app stand out from all the other similar projects out there. First of all, the detailed and organized summaries are simply incredible. It's such a great job! Secondly, the app has the ability to summarize very long videos with ease. I just summarized a 4-hour video condensed into 13 chapters with no hiccups! That's just unbelievable!

However, there are still two important things missing from the app. Firstly, the ability to ask and chat with ChatGPT directly would be amazing. And secondly, the lack of an option to copy or download the whole text can be a bit annoying (just let’s you copy one paragraph at a time (and sometimes it’s pasting double), especially when using the app on a phone where there is no history option (only on iPad). But overall, I can't express enough how fantastic this app is!

balmy tusk
#

this sucks cause it wont let me ask questions about the video 🤦‍♂️

hazy marten
#

@vast rock thank you for the kind words, I am glad that you are finding it as useful, the ability to export summaries/ copy paste them will be added in the next update, as for the ability to ask questions about the video, it will also be added in subsequent updates, both features are in the upcoming features that are being worked on.

We are working on a total of 31 major new features, we have just added one of them in the newest update which allows you to save and come back to your summaries later on.

Here is a list of just some of the features being worked on:

GPT-3 Quick Actions - instantly get the answer to your most burning questions about any video without watching it ,
Instant summarization,
Basic & High Fidelity Life-Like Text to Speech,
Customizability for summary structure and UI,
Auto-summarize subscribed/selected channel videos,
Speech to text,
Viewer Sentiment Analysis
Stop, Resume & Regenerate Summaries

there are many more to list, but a lot of work is being done to make this app even more useful, even more easy to use and save the end user even more time.

If you are able to, a positive review is much appreciated as it will help promote the app to more people and encourage the future development of new features.

vast rock
hazy marten
#

@vast rock I have a solution for that as well

hazy marten
#

i love the idea. is the chrome version still down? no rush, just want to make sure im not missing something

hazy marten
#

@hazy marten I would recommend highly using the mobile versions, they have more features, and consistently work with practically 0 errors, the chrome extension works for most people but if it doesn't make sure to check https://summarizergpt.web.app/docs#error for some common solutions, i will be making a bare-bones version of the chrome extension which will always work but will not have many future features that the apps will have for users experiencing problems, there are 30 + upcoming features for the mobile version so I highly recommend using that one.

mental pine
#

hello, I am a first time user on youtubeGPT. Unfortunately my experience isn't great. It say "can't summarize! Video has no captions" but I am sure it has captions. Why?

hazy marten
#

@mental pine if you are using the chrome extension this shouldn't happen but i assume you are using ios version which works for 90% of the videos, this is unfortunately just a problem with the ios version as it is harder to get the captions on an iphone, i can assure you that it works for almost any other video with captions and what you have experienced is a rare phenomenon, we are fixing this by adding more support to push that 90% as close as possible to 100% but it is difficult because it involves use base64 and buffer encoding of character sensitive strings

hazy marten
#

New ios/android update, better performance on lower-end devices, copy/paste button, fixed cutting-off of lines

  4. ability to export summaries
  5. ability to continue summaries

Hi @hazy marten,

Regarding videos with no subtitles and in different languages, I saw you said earlier that you have a plan to have the same summarize ability for those videos. Are you planning to combine this with being able to translate it from the video language to English?

hard vault
#

give me 100k subscribers

fathom niche
#

Is this app not translated into Vietnamese yet?

north chasm
#

@hazy marten you might want to look for Yandex video translation technology and then use it for videos. I think there is a public ripoff for that already

vast rock
#

@hazy marten does not work for livestreams (even after the livestream has finished, if it has the word "live" in its URL); even if there are subtitles available, it says "Cannot summarize video; has no captions". Can you fix that?

hazy marten
#

@manic pulsar yes, that is correct

#

@fathom niche Vietnamese will be included in the next update of the mobile versions as well as 2 other languages

#

@north chasm i will look into it

#

@vast rock i will look into this and try to reproduce it, this should be fixed in the next update

#

Next IOS/Android Update (Epsilon) [Predicted Approval Date Monday 22:00 GMT]:

  • Noticeable optimization, should run way better for lower-end devices and overall take up less memory and cpu and be more responsive
  • Improved onboarding system
  • Will support 3 new languages including Vietnamese and another two, let me know if you have any suggestions
  • IOS will have the logo fixed
  • Android will have new logos as it was lacking it previously
  • Ability to stop summaries
  • Ability to regenerate summaries
  • Ability to summarize specific parts of the video using a slider
  • Ability to export summaries to, for example google docs
  • Ability to continue summaries, summary cut off? error occurred? no problem just hit the continue button and it will continue from there
  • You will be able to click "Share" on YouTube videos and open with the app and it will automatically paste and load the transcript for you
  • Improved formatting for other language
  • Fixes for incorrectly saying no captions available for videos that definitely have captions
#

Consider leaving a positive review on the mobile versions if you can, it will encourage the further development of the app with more ambitious features such as:

  1. Instant summarization
  2. High fidelity, life-like text to speech
  3. Speech to text commands
  4. Ask questions about the video
  5. Auto-summarize selected/subscribed channels
    and much more
hazy marten
#

Please do not hesitate to give feedback, possible improvements or possible new features here, the app is early on in development, there is a lot more to come

After update, I thought you will add Bahasa Indonesia but it didn't happen 🥲 I only found Bahasa Melayu and it's hard to understand some sentences.
Btw Indonesia is the 4th largest internet user in the world with 204 million users, the 3rd largest Youtube with 127 million users, ChatGpt and Youtube fully support Bahasa Indonesia and Bahasa Indonesia being studied by 45 countries and now pursued to become the Official Language of ASEAN (South East Asia).
Many Malaysians who use Bahasa Melayu also understand Bahasa Indonesia, because Bahasa Indonesia is modern version of Bahasa Melayu, so why did you miss it?
Btw A.I/ChatGpt are currently being hotly discussed in Indonesia and are trending topic on social media.
So for next update please add Bahasa Indonesia because I think your app is really great and Indonesian must to know about this app, thank you.

hazy marten
#

@teal moth the next update will include Vietnamese, Bahasa Indonesia and another language, there were problems with Bahasa Melayu so it was temporarily removed

pastel sand
#

I did something wrong?

#

Uh, nevermind... I seen now the post from 26

hazy marten
#

@pastel sand also some people have an issue with the scaling like if it's too wide, if you just zoom in and out it should fix itself

#

It looks like OpenAI is getting ready to roll out the official API of ChatGPT; they've removed the ChatGPT api coming soon disclaimer from their website and they usually update once a month with something major and also it has been almost a year since GPT-3's release in March 22 so it seems likely that they are preparing to release the official api within 3 weeks at most, maybe earlier

#

This could mean that the app has the possibility of breaking due to the changes, I just want people to be aware of that however if on the off chance it does happen it will be fixed immediately on the next update so make sure to update if that happens but it might just be a maybe

vast rock
#

Hi @hazy marten, I noticed you added the option to copy the entire summary in the last update—kudos for that 👏However, this function works only if you copy right away and not on summaries from the history tab.
I really love the app and can’t wait till it’s in the top 100 apps on the App Store😀. Keep up the good work!

north needle
#

Most YouTube videos are so slow these days! I can also just increase the speed by 2.

hazy marten
#

@vast rock Will be fixed in the next update, thank you for the kind words, a lot more to come in due time

#

@north needle i'm glad you are finding it useful, especially on your first day on the server

hazy marten
#

The IOS version also works for MacOS so if you have a mac then it will work on it as well

#

With the release of ChatGPT official API 4 minutes ago we are now working on implementing the "ask question about video feature"

#

We are also working on the migration of the existing infrastructure to the official API

#

You should not experience any disruptions with the usage of the app or extension as I just tested it

hazy marten
#

Website version coming soon due to official api release

calm sail
#

@hazy marten can this be useful for other links like TikTok video and Instagram reels.

#

@hazy marten . May I know how this works. U r using whisper to extract text from video. For IOS app, it’s asking users to login with open Ai to fetch the key. Does this mean, it’s costing users for this translation service.

dry barn
#

btw, @hazy marten , since the official API is open already, is it possible to use our own API key for our needs? Perhaps you could do that in the next updates

hazy marten
#

@calm sail they are very short, they do not need to be summarized like long-form youtube videos, however the underlying technology can be applied to it as well if that is what you meant

#

@dry barn yes, users will need to provide their own api key, and the usage will also come out of their own credits, everyone gets 18$ free credit

#

A 1 hour video is usually about 32000 - 48000 chars depending on the content

#

if we assume 48,000 and 0.002 per 1k tokens for gpt-3.5-turbo then 0.002$ per 4000-5000 chars, implying paying 2 cents per summary

#

if we assume normal videos like 20 - 30 minutes then it will cost 1 cent per summary

#

18$ free credit courtesy of OpenAI means that every user will have 1,800 free summaries for normal length youtube videos, before they start paying or 900 long-form youtube videos like lectures and courses summaries

#

To put it into a few words: Time has never been cheaper to buy

dry barn
hazy marten
hazy marten
#

@calm sail you will have to use your own api key, everyone should have 18$ free credit by OpenAI, with that you should be able to get 1,800 free summaries of normal length videos such as 30 minute videos

it won't give very good responses then as it is designed to write summaries and so songs will just confuse it unless it is some sort of analysis of a song

Ah song analysis videos? Got well done in one example.
The Making of Fireflies
•Fireflies is a song about the artists lifelong struggle with insomnia and feeling like he always has so much on his mind its tough to fall asleep at night.
•The intro of the song is a synth sound made out of a single sine wave, which is the purest tone that exists.

🔧 Small website update:

@hazy marten new iOS version makes some problems

hazy marten
#

@vast rock hi, this will be fixed in the following updates, this is because we transitioned to the official api and there are some errors but it will be fixed, text to speech is also coming in the next few updates

hazy marten
#

🔧 Website update:

  1. Improved formatting system, more reliable and consistent and simpler
  2. Added prompt control, you can now see and change your prompt, maybe you can test which one works the best though on refresh it does not save
  3. Added limited support tag to some languages which are very difficult for chat gpt to consistently get right
#

This will come to ios as well which will remove formatting errors for most languages

hazy marten
#

🎉 new chrome extension released, way more robust, clean, lightweight and reliable supporting 17 languages

#

there are very few minor problems but overall it should work without problem

cerulean plover
#

Stupid question. Does using this extension require credits for tokens? Aka chatGPT plus is not enough?

#

Also it just dies here:

cunning kayak
#

Got this today, what should I do about it?

austere berry
cunning kayak
austere berry
#

It should be the API tokens you get in the OpenAI platform site, which is separate from the ChatGPT site

hazy marten
#

@cunning kayak everyone gets 18$ of free credits by OpenAI, which should be around 900 summaries for 30 minute length videos, I doubt you used it up already because this could also be caused by using an account that is not your main account, for example when i try using this with another account is gives me this message as well

#

@cerulean plover yes, OpenAI says ChatGPT plus is separate from the token usage, you should have 18$ of free credit by OpenAI which should be enough for 900 summaries for 30 minute length videos

hazy marten
#

@cerulean plover if it only loads the transcript and does not begin the summary it means that your api key is incorrect or you deleted it, click reset api key and go through setup again and it should be all good

cunning kayak
hazy marten
#

@cunning kayak yes, if you go here https://platform.openai.com/account/usage if you are on your main account it should say [amount used]/18$ of free trial, but if you're not on your main account it will say 0.00/0.00

cerulean plover
hazy marten
#

🔧 Streaming will be in the next ios/android update, you'll be able to read the summary as it's being generated just like it was before

#

there may be an insight feature in the next update where you can click on specific words and phrases in the summary to get quick insights into it's history and background and even possibly images in the summaries

keen echo
#

for the iOS app: it does not give live summaries like before, it only gives the summary block after each chapter. sometimes it gives a few bullet points only or it misses chapters(or repeat the chapter heading for each bullet point) or gives summaries from previous videos when summarizing a new transcript, does not work for live streams that have ended, I think it used to work before. The website version does not work on mobile, it gives a blank white screen.

#

@keen echo this will be fixed in the next update for ios, on android it works as usual

#

i will make a responsive website version for mobile as well

upbeat helm
hazy marten
#

@upbeat helm this is good but there are a few glaring problems, it doesn't seem to offer anything new and seems to be a copy of another extensions UI, you should add something that makes it better, i should warn you that you also expose your own api key in your network request, this will get bad for you if someone tries to spam it or just more than 1 user is trying to summarize a video at once, it will also cost you quite a bit in the long term.

hazy marten

#

🎉 successfully tested google cloud text to speech on ios version, it is unimaginably more convenient to listen to a summary rather than read it

#

it will use your own google api key which is set up in one-click login in the settings and then you should have 4 million free characters per month of standard voices and 1 million for neural voices courtesy of google and so that will cover roughly 600-1200 summaries using standard voices or 200-400 summaries using neural voices free per month

cool this extension

hazy marten

Tomorrow is the sync update, it wont have the major features but will have some features, this update is just so that android is also on the same level as the ios version, it includes:

Big one: summaries will now be streamed (except for android), so you can read it as it's being made (already on android but not ios, now both will have it)
For android this will be a big leap up in terms of quality and robustness of the system as android is still on old infrastructure

  1. A cleaner, more elegant UI
  2. A more robust system
  3. Better prompt engineering
  4. More efficient token usage (save credit)
  5. Regeneration summary button
  6. Stop button fixed
  7. Better summary quality (by default it is "ultra" but in next update the selector will be there)
  8. Better summary speeds
  9. Huge improvements in foreign language ability
  10. 5 new languages supported
  11. Way more reliable transcription fetching.

The major features will be in the next update as it is important to make sure it is reliable and works well.

Android will temporarily not have streaming as it causes major problems for some reason, can't figure it out but it doesn't affect speed in any way in fact it is faster when not streamed it's just a very minor knock off, ios will have the streaming though.

heya, thanks for the info and the update as usual!
Haven't tried so much, but so far it's been okay!

manic pulsar
#

He's the best 👍

hazy marten
#

🔧 Fixes:

  1. Streamed responses on iOS unreliable (sometimes writes gibberish) - maybe an error on OpenAI's side, regardless this has been fixed for the next update
  2. Some people on iOS devices have reported having issues on iPad devices/ non phone devices - the issue has been found and fixed, it will be included in the next update
hazy marten
#

This fix will also be coming to the chrome and web versions soon

Hi, @hazy marten since the latest iOS update, its not working at all on mobile and ipad! Its just like thinking, but not generating any text, (my api is set up correctly), what could it mean?

hazy marten
#

@vast rock hi, this is the issue that is the target of the newest update, the reason you're experiencing that infinite loading is because OpenAI sent back an error and the app did not handle it so you just have infinite loading. the update will be releasing tomorrow, i already uploaded the newest version on Friday however Apple does not do approvals over the weekend.

Any update? Mine hasn't worked for about a month now

🎉 New update (for ios):

Functional Improvements:

  1. Giant Increase in streaming performance, code is now optimized and should no longer lag at all when generating the summary other than when gpt 3.5 is thinking
  2. Bug fixes, fixed a bug where the app crashes when deleting summaries very quickly in the history tab.
  3. Prompt Engineering Improvements - better prompts for more reliable formatting and more obedient AI, should notice more consistent formatting (less bugs) and appropriate detail (quick when quick and ultra when ultra)
  4. Token usage optimization, roughly 100 tokens saved in this update (per chapter), small but I think it's cool
  5. Quality selector improved and fixed, quick summaries will be more consistently quick and ultra summaries will be more detailed more consistently
  6. Improved foreign language obedience, Chat GPT should now be more obedient to replying in the target language than before, so if you want it to reply in Japanese it will more consistently reply in japanese

Major Updates:

  1. Google Cloud Text To Speech - super high fidelity tts, very nice to listen to instead of reading, you can also customize speaking rate and the voice (all voices supported)
  2. Slider to summarize specific parts of a youtube video - intuitive.
  3. Summary database implementation, if a summary has already been made by someone else, it. will be fetched from the database instead of waiting (control from the settings)
  4. Control whether or not the summaries are streamed (shown as they're being made) or shown per chapter

Released

I spent the last 30 mins going through each api projects to find you as search seems broken @hazy marten 😄

Been having issues with grabbing the API. After it says wait for 5 seconds and be redirected, nothing happens. I'm just stuck on the openai API screen. I've cleared cache, storage, un-installed, restarted phone, etc. Same thing. It was working perfectly before all of this 😞

@hazy marten Works great now thanks. 2 quick things I noticed. The copy to clipboard does not copy all text for some reason. Also, past YouTube lives link (the ones with captions) don't work

hazy marten
#

@tribal field i'll try to fix those, but in the mean time I added back the old system, so the service is now completely free and streaming is fixed so it's generated live

Hi @hazy marten, I'm using the app almost every single day and have gained 10s of hours of freedom. Thank you again for the amazing work you put in!
I'd like to know when, and if, the summarize for videos without subtitles will be available. Isn't Whisper a good fit to do that?
