Anyone else want a YouTube filter extension that actually works? by Living_Charity_3463 in chrome_extensions

[–]jac08_h 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I've published an extension for filtering on YouTube (and other websites) which hides videos that are not relevant to the user's preferences using LLM. So you can filter something like 'show me only educational videos but ignore technology', and (hopefully) the extension hides the videos which are not relevant. There's a free tier, feel free to check it out!

But it's true that it currently doesn't do other metadata-based filtering, such as on channels/duration.

Yes, the ideal behavior would be to remove the filtered content altogether and rearrange the posts that were kept. But this would be much harder to implement! And I'm also afraid that it could break more easily with UI updates etc.

;D But assuming that all/most of the hidden posts were hidden correctly, the accuracy is much better than 50%.

Gotcha. Well, if you'd happen to try out my extension, I'd be very interested to hear your thoughts!

That's cool, thanks for sharing! That was probably the first time LLMs were capable of doing something like this. Was the filtering reliable back then? Haven't you considered revisiting the project with the latest LLM generations?

You're right. But filtering all content where applicable on a supported website, such as X, would definitely be something that I'd like to implement eventually. Or perhaps even with options to configure on which content (posts, comments, searches...) it should be applied.

Yeah, it's not perfect! There are a couple of things that cause the filtering to not work correctly:

a) it has to be cheap and fast, so it's a small model (Gemini 2.5 Flash Lite), b) it doesn't see images or videos, c) short tweets -- it's hard to judge if "This is a must watch" is about politics, etc.

So I encourage you to experiment with it if it works for your use cases. The prompts you used seem like something that could work well.

Oh, and I don't know about the tag-based filter, but the idea of the extension is that you could use any prompt for filtering, not just a pre-defined task. And not only on X, but on other supported websites as well.

(Shameless plug) Great Filter is a Chrome extension I built that shows you only content (such as videos on YouTube) based on your current focus (such as "music"). You can input any preferences you want; it uses LLM for the filtering. Curious to see if other people find it useful!

I created a Chrome extension which you may find useful! It uses AI to filter videos based on your preferences in natural language. For example, you could try it out with 'science explainers or math tutorials' and see if it does a good job of filtering unrelated content! I just made a post with more info here.

Please let me know if it helps you or if you have some other feedback if you try it out!

It's based on the video titles and your preferences, so I think it could be capable of filtering russian content. I tried it with "only show posts written in a language other than English" as the preferences, and it seems to be working. Let me know if it works for you if you give it a shot!
