YouTube is testing a new feature called "Play something" which randomly selects a video for you to watch, enhancing user engagement by introducing spontaneity.
The new floating button appears above the bottom navigation bar in the YouTube app and utilizes the YouTube Shorts player for both Shorts and standard videos.
While earlier versions included a "Play Something" banner, the current implementation is intended to streamline the process of finding content without user input.
This feature resembles a recently retired Netflix feature called "Surprise Me", indicating a growing trend of platforms providing users with random content options.
