This post discusses tools that summarize YouTube videos, primarily focusing on the TL;DW site and Kagi's summarizer. Users share personal experiences with different summarization tools, expressing preferences and frustrations. One user highlights using transcripts to query LLMs for concise answers instead of full videos. There’s a recognition of the trend where longer videos are favored by algorithms, leading to a potential saturation of lengthy content rather than succinct, informative videos. Some comments also humorously mention future technology that would allow direct streaming of information into the brain.
