YouTube feed now listens to your prompt: Gemini powers Custom Feeds
On September 23, YouTube began testing Custom Feeds: Gemini builds a separate Home tab from a text prompt. In the US, English-language users can keep one such feed.
Previously, viewers could only train Home through viewing and search activity. Now Gemini builds a Custom Feed from a phrase such as "help me relax after work with meditations under 10 minutes."
To create a feed, open Home, select Your custom feed, enter a prompt, and press Enter. The experiment requires viewing and search history to be enabled, and views from the new tab are added to the regular Home history.
YouTube promised to soon open several saved feeds in the US for web, mobile, and TV.
