YouTube introduced a new AI assistant feature designed to help users recover hacked accounts and prevent future breaches. The announcement was made on Google’s support page for YouTube, detailing the new “hacked channel assistant” available on the platform. Eligible creators can use this feature to troubleshoot their hacked accounts through the YouTube Help Center. The assistant will guide users through securing their Google login, undoing any unauthorized changes made by hackers, and protecting their channels from further intrusion. Currently, the feature is only available in English and for a limited group of creators, but Google is working to expand access to all YouTube creators.
