Google introduces a new AI tool on YouTube to recover hacked accounts. This helps creators safeguard the account, and there is no need to worry anymore about the account being misused unnecessarily.
You can find this feature under the name “troubleshooting tool” on Google’s official support page. The chatbot is accessible from the YouTube Help Center. When you click on it, you will be asked a set of questions to identify your account. Additionally, you will be guided through the steps to secure your Google account and reverse changes that have been made to it.
Presently, the AI-powered chat assistant is only available in English. Also, the feature is limited to certain creators. Google clarified that they are working on it to make the AI Chatbot accessible for all YouTube creators globally.
Google’s official support page also has a resource if the AI Chatbot doesn’t work. You can report your queries to @TeamYouTube on X and get immediate solutions from the support team.
YouTube will ensure its community safety by introducing new AI-powered features. Though hacking has grown drastically, we can’t stop it entirely, but we can prevent our accounts with little effort. As a creator, you should keep the app updated regularly to protect your account against vulnerabilities.
