But Mr. Harrenstien said the vast majority of clips on You Tube do not have captions and the new Google technology will generate them automatically. You Tube is initially applying the captioning technology only to a few channels, most of them specializing in educational content.

Google also introduced a related service that gives anyone who uploads a video to You Tube the option to also upload a text file of the words spoken in the video. Google will turn the text file into captions, automatically matching the spoken words with the files. In addition to helping people who are deaf or do not speak English, the captions will make it easier for anyone to search text inside videos and find specific snippets within a video.
