Both will be powered by AI and will roll out in the months ahead.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Using AI technology, video podcast creators in the U.S. will be able to create clips more easily with AI suggestions, the company says. This will be available in the \u201ccoming months,\u201d while a feature that will transform those clips into YouTube Shorts will arrive early next year.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The addition could give YouTube more fodder to compete with rival short-form video apps, like TikTok and Instagram (Reels), while also directing users to podcasters they might find interesting on YouTube\u2019s larger platform, driving subscriptions and engagement.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"389\" width=\"680\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Podcast-clips-title-card.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3046308\"  \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Meanwhile, another new feature also available early next year will help audio podcasters turn their content into video. Using AI, these creators will be able to generate a customizable video for their podcast, the company says. However, the feature will only be available to \u201cselect podcasters\u201d when it launches, with a larger expansion planned for later in 2026. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"389\" width=\"680\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Audio-to-video-title-card.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3046310\"  \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">YouTube has been more focused on building out tools for podcasters over the past several years, making pods a more <a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2022\/08\/22\/youtube-launches-a-dedicated-podcasts-homepage-for-u-s-users\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">prominent feature on YouTube\u2019s home page<\/a> and its <a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2023\/04\/27\/youtube-music-officially-launches-podcasts-for-listeners-in-the-us\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">YouTube Music service alike.
