Google Gemini’s new “Extensions” feature allows users to access external tools such as YouTube to chat with videos and get answers for free.
Step-by-step:
Visit Google’s Gemini website. If Gemini is not available in your country, you’ll need to use a US-based VPN.
Click on the gear icon located on the bottom-left, select Extensions, and turn on the YouTube one.
Go back to the Chat interface and start your prompt using the following format: “@youtube Summarize the following video [Youtube URL]”
Try asking Gemini to explain advanced concepts discussed in a video, generating concrete examples, creating practice questions, and even asking for code snippets.
