It is extremely valuable for social media platforms to suggest content that will interest users. Ultimately, how much time we spend on the platform depends on how much content we encounter that interests us. For YouTube, which makes up a large portion of its stream with recommended content, recommending real images is much more important than other platforms. That’s why the platform always keeps trying new features.
The latest feature that YouTube has started testing for bid images may be the weirdest yet. Because YouTube is currently testing recommending images based on their colors. Yes, you choose a color such as green, blue or red and YouTube starts to suggest images based on this color. “Would the video have color?” We seem to hear you say. Let’s explain…
YouTube will create a flow of offers based on the color you choose
YouTube categorizes images as green, red and blue by looking at the cover image and possibly the content. For example, you chose the color red; If YouTube is going to suggest an image of the Apple Vision Pro, it suggests the image of the man in the red shirt. If he is going to suggest a Tesla image, he recommends the image with a red Tesla.
A special offer page will be created for the color you choose.
You may think, “What color is the cover of the image I am going to watch or what color t-shirt the man in the image is wearing does not make the image more interesting?” You’re absolutely right… That’s why the feature in question may be the most “irrelevant” feature that YouTube has tested to recommend images to users. Of course, YouTube will continue to look at other details when recommending images. Color will just be an additional filter. Still, probably no one who read this news did so because the Webtekno logo was red. Therefore, you will not like the images more just because they have the color you choose.
