GBrain gives a team, and every AI it uses, one shared memory. The AI in a workspace’s chat can now download videos and podcast episodes, and read what a YouTube video says.
Before this, asking it to download a video ended in a few failed tries and an apology. Now it hands back the file.
A link becomes a file in the chat
Videos. YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, X, Reddit, news sites and many other places a video plays in public. The AI downloads it as an mp4 that plays on any phone or computer and puts it in the chat to watch or save.
Podcasts. An episode from Apple Podcasts, a show’s feed, or Spotify when the same episode is on Apple Podcasts. The AI finds the audio file and puts it in the chat.
Files up to 100 MB arrive in the chat. For a longer video the AI picks a smaller size, or the sound alone, and says which it did.
The AI can read what a YouTube video says
Ask what a talk covers, for its best quotes, or to save a video to memory, and the AI reads the captions the video publishes, with the time each line is said. It can file a page for the video with a summary, the people and companies in it, and the full transcript, or pull out the quotes and moments worth sharing.
Captions don’t say who is speaking, so the AI doesn’t guess. A video with no captions has no transcript yet.
Some videos stay out of reach
A video behind a sign-in, a private video, or one on a paid streaming service can’t be downloaded, and the AI says so instead of trying around it.
What you need to do
Nothing. Send the AI a link and ask for the video, the episode or what it says.
