Google´s SmartReply comes to YouTube [Rami Al-Rfou @ Google AI Blog]

Google´s SmartReply is a handy feature in Gmail and some other applications, and it can be seen as a recommender system for sentence completion. Now, Google announced that SmartReply will be coming to YouTube (Studio).

We are now excited to share an updated SmartReply built for YouTube and implemented in YouTube Studio that helps creators engage more easily with their viewers. This model learns comment and reply representation through a computationally efficient dilated self-attention network, and represents the first cross-lingual and character byte-based SmartReply model. SmartReply for YouTube is currently available for English and Spanish creators, and this approach simplifies the process of extending the SmartReply feature to many more languages in the future.
