X is shutting down its Communities feature due to low usage and high spam reports.
YouTube's expanding access to some of its experimental generative AI features, while it's also got some new updates for Communities, as per this week's update. First off, on AI tools. YouTube says that it's expanding to various AI editing features, including standalone clips, green screen backgrounds, its "AI playground," and more. That could be an interesting addition, providing all new ways to create with YouTube's evolving AI tools, though YouTube has presumably also enacted restrictions on the use of such with copyright-protected characters and scenes.
Communities help you find and connect with your people [...] and soon, there'll be more features that recognize the active voices in a community. We will be looking at posts that give feedback on this new experience to keep improving and plan to share more about what's next for communities soon.
