00:00In this video, I will show you how to summarize a YouTube video with ChatGPT.
00:06Now to do this, what you want to do, of course, is come across to ChatGPT.
00:10Make sure you're logged into your account.
00:12Then what you need to do is find the video on YouTube that you want to summarize.
00:16So it's really good to do if there's a video that's really long, say for example 30 minutes,
00:21and you just want a quick summary on the video.
00:23Now in this example, I'm just going to use one of my videos.
00:26So I'm going to use this one here.
00:28What you want to do is click to be taken to the video page.
00:32And then what you want to do is actually click into the address bar at the top,
00:35right click, and then click on to copy to copy the video URL link.
00:40Once you've done that, come back to ChatGPT.
00:43And basically you just want to put something along the lines of,
00:46can you summarize this YouTube video?
00:47And then place the link afterwards.
00:49So it looks like this.
00:51Once that's done, click to send the prompt through to ChatGPT.
00:54As you can see, it's just going to take a minute or two to go through.
00:56And it might ask you to paste the YouTube transcript,
01:00just so it's got more context from the YouTube video.
01:03It doesn't matter how long the transcript is.
01:06So to actually get the transcript, if you come back to the video,
01:09and what you want to do is come below the video to the video description,
01:12click onto more to expand the description,
01:15and then scroll down to the bottom of the description,
01:18where you should find the option to show the video transcript.
01:21So all you want to do is click the button here,
01:24which is going to bring up the transcript on the right-hand side.
01:26And what you can do is come up, click onto the three dots,
01:29and just click toggle timestamps to, of course, get rid of the timestamps.
01:33And then if you actually hold down your left mouse button,
01:35and just drag to basically highlight the entire video transcript,
01:40once you've done that, right-click, click onto copy.
01:42And then what you want to do is come back to ChatGPT,
01:45and then just type here is the transcript.
01:49Start with open speech marks, so like this,
01:51and then paste your transcript in.
01:53And once you've done that, just add some speech marks at the end,
01:56and send that through to ChatGPT.
01:58So what's going to happen now,
02:00ChatGPT is basically going to use the transcript
02:02to get the context of the video, along with the video link.
02:05And as you can see, it's going to give you a quick summary on the video.
02:09So you can, of course, use this to summarize long videos on YouTube,
02:13which is really handy if you don't want to watch an entire YouTube video.
02:16Maybe it's really long, like 30 minutes or something like that.
02:19But that's how to summarize a YouTube video with ChatGPT.
