Bardeen's automation creates a summary of a YouTube video that you're currently watching. This can be particularly useful if you're looking for a quick overview of a long video, or if you're conducting research and need concise summaries of various video content. Here is how this automation works:
- Get Current Page URL: This first step involves obtaining the URL of the page you're currently on. This is essential to identify the YouTube video that needs to be summarized.
- Find Values Using Regular Expression: Using a regular expression, this step extracts the specific video ID from the URL obtained in the previous step.
- Merge Text: The video ID is then combined with the base URL of the YouTube transcript service. This forms the URL for the transcript of the video.
- Find All Links in Text: All the links in the text obtained from the previous step are extracted. This includes the link to the YouTube transcript.
- Scrape Data in the Background: Using the Scraper, the transcript of the YouTube video is scraped in the background. The transcript is then ready to be summarized.
- Merge Text: The scraped transcript is prepared for summarization. This involves combining the transcript with an instruction for the AI to summarize the video script.
- Get Summary of a Text by OpenAI: The final step involves using OpenAI's GPT-3 model to generate a summary of the video transcript. The result is a succinct summary of the YouTube video.
