If you’re on mobile, you need to switch Safari to Request Desktop Website. Then there’s “Show transcript” in the video’s “…” menu. This works for me without being signed in to YouTube.
There's also sites that let you download the transcript, like this:
 
i'm not on mobile, dont have an iphone anymore actually

how do you get show transcript ? mind showing me a picture please ? and are you sure you don't have the PLUS subscription ?
You get the transcript on the YouTube website:

Then you copy it from there and paste it into ChatGPT, asking it to summarize that text.

It’s advisable to toggle the timestamps off before copying:

Do you get the feeling or any sense from Apple that this is going to be a yearly upgrade product or something like the Apple Watch the next version significantly eclipse the launch version? I desperately want this and I have several use cases for this but it’s a one-time purchase for me as that amount of money is life changing for me, if I was to take the plunge, do you think that this is something that I will regret within 12 months because Apple will do the yearly cycle or is this a product that you think won’t get updates for several years and then it will be a big sea change?
 
Please show me the data which confirms this is correlated with kids using their devices... There's a lot of crap going on in the world that wasn't happening before.
Since it was so easy to find, I will respond one last time.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6791504/

"Seven systematic reviews published to date have found an association between increased screen time and worse mental health in young people".

Conclusion:
"Current evidence suggests that excessive or ‘problematic’ use of social media/internet does impact suicide risk, specifically increasing the risk of suicide attempts."

And where do they use social media? On their "devices". But of course you will attempt to discredit the data, so go ahead and fire away. I'm done here.
 
@Tempest114 Personally, I fully expect this to be a yearly-updated product like the iPhone or Apple Watch. And much like those products, I expect that they’ll come out with multiple versions - high and lower-end versions - in the future.

But time will tell.

Hi Dan. I just watched your video on the Apple Vision Pro. It looks really cool. Can’t wait to get one. I had two questions: I wear reading glasses. Will I need lens inserts to be able to read text. Also, Will any Bluetooth headphones work with it or do they have to be AirPods? Thanks and thanks for all your great videos/comments.

You are right that it’s not clear-cut: https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2023/02/teen-suicide-depression-girls-social-media.html

The most evidence there is, according to that article, is from studies like that one: “In British Columbia, access to high-speed internet expanded in recent years, reaching some neighborhoods before others. Researchers found that when areas secured access to it, their rates of social-media usage went up. They then found that the introduction of high-speed internet to a locality was associated with a sharp increase in mental-health diagnoses among girls.” Of course, one might argue that the apparent increase could be caused by the girls getting more informed.

Rather off-topic in this thread, of course.

I didn't watch it...so it sounds like you can. Good news. I was thinking it had its own operating system and would have to use apps like the photo app or similar.
Looked like Apple’s sidecar technology migrated to the vision pro.
 
They are a thing. I think you mean, they wont be embraced by the public as a whole like the iPhone...
Fun fact: The total sales of all VR headsets from all manufacturers over the last 7-8 years (so, I’m talking Quest, Valve Index, PSVR, Pimax, Vive, etc… combined) is only…

…9 million units. (And most of those sales are for gaming, which is practically non-existent on the Mac.)

I love VR. And I’ve owned several headsets myself. (HTC Vive, PSVR, Quest 1, Valve Index, Quest Pro, PSVR2)

But I personally don’t see it becoming mainstream (and going beyond gaming) until it becomes as easy as wearing a pair of sunglasses.

Also, that $3500 price tag (when you have affordable, completely capable $300 headsets like the Quest 2 that still can’t sell over 9 million units) is a major barrier of entry.
 
I'd really like to see a real world comparison between this and the Microsoft Hololens. I know Microsoft is only marketing the Hololens to business and industry right now but if AR goes mainstream they could easily pivot their existing product to compete.
I find it interesting that Apple was pushing AR but then went full VR instead. The Hololens has a transparent display that can be made opaque on demand so when you look at the real world you're actually seeing the real world with an AR overlay. With the Vision you're seeing simulated AR. The real world is coming from the cameras and what you're seeing is only what's on the screen. Even more interesting is that Apple decided to put a display on the front to make it appear as if the screen were translucent when in fact it is not. I know that Hololens has advanced eye tracking, hand gestures and many of the same features including the exact same $3,500 price. The cheaper game systems like Oculus keep getting mentioned but real AR hardware in the same price range does not.

MacRumors crew, any chance of getting your hands on a current gen Hololens to compare the AR experience?
I’d say the Vision Pro is on par with the Varjo XR-3, which is $7000 + $2000/yr software subscription.

Yes, selecting and scrolling should work. You can also download it as a text file using this website.

Yes, ChatGPT is just for when you want a summary. You could tell ChatGPT “Please summarize the following YouTube transcript: <paste the transcript here>”.

Selecting with the mouse and scrolling, yes. You could probably also select the whole page with Cmd+A, paste it into some text editor and more easily cut out the actual transcript there.

As Night Spring mentioned here, there are also web apps for downloading subtitles that might be more convenient.

I still shoot on a Canon EOS 3 that tracks your eye (a camera made in 1997) to find focal points. It was magic then. The current Canon EOS R3 brought that tech back and is even more magical. I cannot imagine how intuitive and easy Apple's new interface is using this technology with both. eyes and gestures. Really excited for how the UI will be integrating with other tech in the near future!
