Chat with Video

ChatGPT now has the capability to interact with video content, opening up a world of possibilities for media interaction and education. 

ChatGPT, a language model developed by OpenAI, has always been known for its ability to generate human-like text based on the prompts it receives. Now, it has been enhanced with a new functionality that allows it to interact with video content. This means that ChatGPT can now load a video, analyze its content, and provide a summary or answer questions about it.

This was demonstrated in a recent experiment (below at the end of the post) where ChatGPT was asked to summarize a YouTube video about business analysis. You can watch the original video here: 


In this experiment, ChatGPT was asked to summarize the YouTube video about business analysis. To accomplish this, the AI used the chatwithvideo.loadVideo plugin to load the video using its YouTube ID. The plugin extracted the transcript of the video, which ChatGPT then processed and summarized into a coherent and concise summary. Following this, ChatGPT was asked to create a word frequency map for the video transcript. To do this, it used the show_me_diagrams.get__MermaidRoute plugin from the show_me_diagrams namespace. The plugin created a pie chart based on the frequency of words in the transcript, which was then displayed to the user. This task demonstrated ChatGPT's ability to interact with video content and generate visual diagrams, showcasing its potential for a wide range of applications in media interaction and education.

This new functionality has significant implications for how we interact with media content. It means that users can now engage with videos in a more interactive and dynamic way, asking questions, seeking clarifications, and even requesting additional information about the video content. This could revolutionize how we consume and interact with media, making it a more personalized and engaging experience.

The implications of this development extend beyond media consumption. In the realm of education, this could be a game-changer. Teachers could use this technology to create more interactive and engaging learning experiences. Students could use it to better understand and engage with educational content.

As we look to the future, it's clear that the integration of AI with video content has enormous potential. It could transform not just how we consume media, but also how we learn, communicate, and engage with the world around us.

Key takeaways for universities:

  1. This technology could be used to create more interactive online courses, enhancing the learning experience for students.
  2. It could also be used to analyze and improve educational content based on AI-generated summaries and insights.
  3. Universities could conduct research on this technology to further understand its potential and implications.

Key takeaways for teachers: 

  1. Teachers could use this technology to supplement their teaching and make lessons more engaging.
  2. It could also be used as a tool for self-improvement, allowing teachers to analyze and improve their teaching methods.
  3. Teachers could also use this technology to better understand and cater to the learning needs of their students.

Key takeaways for students: 

  1. Students could use this technology to better understand and engage with educational content.
  2. It could also be used as a study tool, allowing students to ask questions and seek clarifications about the content they are learning.
  3. Students could also use this technology to explore their interests and learn about new topics in an interactive and engaging way.

This post has been cowritten with ChatGPT. Please beware that AI is fascinating and can catch your full attention for hours. Get the balance right! > more?

Rethinking Exams in the Age of Chatbots

Today's experiment explores the potential of ChatGPT to assist me in the realm of exams, particularly within my field of teaching, Business Analysis. Can ChatGPT create a question for an exam? Indeed, it can do even more! In the experiment below, ChatGPT showcases (to varying extents) its ability to not only generate an exam question but also to engage in several related tasks: Generate a difficult critical question Solve the question Critically evaluate the solution (its own solution!) Attribute a mark between 1 and 6 Attribute a severe mark between 1 and 6 Defend a mark Refute a mark Generate a variation of the question which is difficult to solve Generate a variation of the question which is even more difficult to solve Give a correction scale with marks from 1 to 6  The impact of AI and chatbots like ChatGPT impact on university exams is becoming increasingly evident. Students and teachers alike are beginning to discover these tools, questioning their potential to generate, cor...

How to augment a Course with AI and Student Personas

As an educator in the field of business analysis, I've always sought innovative ways to enhance the learning experience for my students. My latest experiment (see below) into this endeavor involved leveraging ChatGPT to not only understand the learning process better but also to tailor it to individual student needs. Here's a glimpse into this fascinating journey. It began with identifying eight phases of a learning process with ChatGPT. These phases ranged from orientation to reflection and evaluation, encompassing the entire spectrum of a student's learning journey. The goal was to understand how students navigate through these phases and how they could be supported in each step. Building on these phases, I adapted them into a model for student personas . This involved considering various aspects of a student's academic life, personal characteristics, and learning styles. From this model, I created ten distinct student personas. Each persona represented a unique c...
