YouTube will soon ask audiences to add context to videos


Notes are coming to YouTube, too.

The feature, called notes, will allow people to add bits of information to clarify things like whether a video is a parody or contains older footage presented as a current event. YouTube will then use this feedback to train its note evaluation system over the coming weeks and months. Other platforms, such as Twitter (now X), started testing community notes in 2021 to provide context to posts.
