Google Bard has one enormous advantage over other AI chatbots

Much has been made of AI chatbots' ability to summarize PDF files or long Web pages. But there's a gigantic time-saver that Google's Bard is beginning to deploy, and it's worth checking out: Knowledge of the gazillion hours of YouTube video it's already archived. On November 21, Google took "the first steps in Bard's ability to understand YouTube videos," according to the list of Bard updates that Google publishes. Coming as it did the week of Thanksgiving and Black Friday, the improvement didn't generate much notice. But after playing around with it, I have to say that there's an enormous amount of hidden potential.
