People & Blogs


Introduction

Are you looking for a quick way to transcribe and analyze audio content from any video? Look no further! AssemblyAI’s Playground allows you to easily try out powerful AI models without any coding skills or account creation required. Here’s how you can utilize this amazing tool in just a few simple steps.

Getting Started with AssemblyAI's Playground

To jump right in, visit AssemblyAI Playground. This platform enables you to upload local audio or video files, or even better, paste any YouTube video link for transcription and analysis.

  1. Choosing a Video: You can either select a YouTube link manually or click on “Surprise Me” to have a random video chosen. For this example, we will use a video from the Kurzgesagt channel titled "What happens if a super volcano blows up".

  2. Input the Link: Copy and paste the YouTube link into the platform and click “Next”.

  3. Select AI Models: You will see an overview of all the models available for you to try. By default, transcription is turned on. Additionally, we will select the summarization feature, which generates a concise summary of the video content.

  4. Processing Time: After clicking “Next”, the processing begins. The time taken is roughly 15-30% of the video’s duration, so it’s best to be patient and check back shortly.

Reviewing Results

Once processing is complete, you will find the transcript of the whole video on the left side. For instance, the first sentence might read, “The Earth is a gigantic ball of semi molten rock with the heart of iron as hot as the surface of the Sun.”

On the right side, you will notice the summary generated from the summarization model. In this example, the summary yields two bullet points, such as "apocalypses can break through and unleash eruptions tens of times more powerful than all of our nuclear weapons combined."

Exploring Other AI Models

To further analyze the same YouTube video, you can try out additional models as follows:

  • Topic Detection: Label the spoken topics using IAP taxonomy.
  • Chapters: Generate summaries over time, producing an automatic summary for each chapter.
  • Content Moderation: Detect sensitive content within the video.
  • Important Phrases: Identify key phrases present in the audio or video.
  • Sentiment Analysis: Determine the sentiment (positive or negative) for each sentence.
  • Entity Detection: Recognize entities like persons, companies, or locations.
  • PII Reduction: Identify and label personally identifiable information (e.g., social security numbers).
  • Speaker Labels: Differentiate between speakers within the video.
  • Dual Channel Support: Transcribe each audio channel separately if it is a dual-channel recording.
  • Profanity Filtering: Filter out profane language.

For example, by enabling the topic detection, chapters, content moderation, important phrases, and sentiment analysis, you receive detailed results once processing is complete.

The results include:

  • Chapters: Identifying chapter headlines and their summaries.
  • Content Moderation: Listing potentially sensitive words detected.
  • Important Phrases: Extracting key phrases from the content.
  • Sentiment Analysis: Noting positive and negative sentiments found.
  • Topic Detection: Highlighting the topics discussed in the video, such as geology and disasters.
