YouTube lets people watch videos at four times speed along with other new attention span-focused features Site will also let some users skip ahead to key parts of videos.
YouTube will now let people watch videos at four times speed – as part of a range of experimental new features.
That allows users to skip through slower videos more quickly, though has also led to questions about whether it is an inferior way of watching videos and what it might do to viewers’ attention spans.
A new tool called “Jump Ahead” allows people to press a button to go through videos more quickly.
They will be able to fine tune within that, allowing people to watch at 3.15 times the speed, for instance.
