YouTubes AI eraser removes copyrighted music, preserves other audio

[phillynews215]

• YouTubes updated AI eraser tool helps creators remove copyrighted music from videos.
• This doesnt affect other audio, like dialogue or sound effects, that might also be present in the segment.
• YouTube has noted that this feature might not always work.

As a content creator, putting hours of work into a YouTube video only for it to get flagged due to a copyrighted track that you unknowingly used in the clip can get frustrating, to say the least. In the past, when this happened, creators had the option of muting all the audio in the copyrighted segment or removing the copyrighted segment from the video entirely. Neither of these two options is ideal in most cases, however, given that the essence of the video can be lost by trimming or muting important parts of the clip. But this is set to change with YouTubes updated AI eraser tool.

YouTube creators can now use the eraser tool to remove copyrighted music from their videos without it affecting other audio elements, like sound effects and dialogue (via TechCrunch). This feature was released on July 4 and made public by Neal Mohan, the CEO of YouTube, in a post on X (the platform formerly known as Twitter).
