Instagram platform has brought automatic
subtitle support for videos to compete with TikTok. This feature, which came to
TikTok early last year, is now active for Instagram.
The competition between TikTok and
Instagram is growing every day. TikTok`s introduction of automatic subtitle
support for videos early last year was well received by users. Now this feature
will be used on Instagram. It is reported that subtitle support will
automatically activate for videos. Subtitle support is not currently available
for all languages, but the number of languages supported will increase in the
near future. Instagram officials say the subtitles are made by artificial
intelligence. For this reason, the subtitles will not be very perfect at first.
However, it is said that translations will be better as the artificial
intelligence`s ability to learn increases. With this new feature, Instagram
targets users with hearing problems. Thus, those users will be able to use the
platform easily. On the other hand, the company also thinks of users who watch
videos silently. According to statistics, 92% of users watch Instagram videos
silently. For this reason, the new feature will be useful for everyone.
