Today, I am going to show you how to use ChatGPT to edit the subtitles in a YouTube video. YouTube automatically generates subtitles for videos, but they often lack punctuation and capital letters. In the past, I have manually edited these subtitles by copying them into a Word document and making corrections. However, this process is time-consuming. Fortunately, I have discovered that ChatGPT can do this task quite well.
To begin, open the video on your YouTube channel and scroll down to the subtitles on the left side. These are the automatic subtitles generated by YouTube. While they are great, they lack punctuation and capital letters. To fix this, copy the subtitles and open ChatGPT. Start a new chat and ask ChatGPT to correct the transcript by adding punctuation and capital letters. Paste the copied subtitles into the chat and let ChatGPT work its magic.
The processing time for ChatGPT has significantly improved, and it quickly adds punctuation and capital letters to the subtitles. Once the process is complete, you can review the corrected text in ChatGPT. Copy the corrected text and paste it into a Word document for further proofreading. After proofreading, delete the original subtitles on YouTube and replace them with the corrected version.
The result is impressive. The new subtitles now have proper punctuation, capital letters, and even commas. This saves a tremendous amount of time compared to manual editing in Word documents. The accuracy and efficiency of ChatGPT in editing subtitles are truly remarkable.
In conclusion, using ChatGPT to edit YouTube subtitles is a game-changer for content creators. It eliminates the tedious process of manually editing subtitles and significantly improves the quality of closed captions. Despite concerns about AI, ChatGPT proves to be a valuable tool in saving time and enhancing the viewing experience for viewers. Give it a try and see how it revolutionizes your subtitle editing process.
