What’s changing?
Last year, Google announced the ability to automatically generate captions for English-language videos in Google Drive. Google are expanding this feature to support 27 additional languages.
What are the benefits?
This update makes video content stored in Drive more accessible, inclusive, and easier to understand for all users, especially those who are deaf or hard of hearing, are in a noisy environment, or speak a different primary language. Automatically generated captions also save time by eliminating the need for manual caption creation and make it easier to search for video content.
