YouTube’s New Ads Interrupt Your Favorite Video Moments—Here’s Why

YouTube has a new way to show ads called Peak Points. These ads pop up right after the most exciting parts of videos. Think about watching a shocking proposal or a comedy prank, only when the climax is over, an ad crops up. Here is what you should know.

How Peak Points Work

YouTube uses a smart computer program (AI) to find the best parts of videos. These parts might make you laugh, cry, or feel surprised. The AI then adds an ad right after that moment.

  • Example
    If you watch a video where someone gets a puppy, an ad for pet food might play next.

Why YouTube Is Trying This

YouTube says these ads help companies. When you are excited or emotional, you might remember the ad better. This is good for brands but could be annoying for viewers.

  • Good for Companies
    • Ads match the video’s mood (like a toy ad after a birthday party clip).
    • People might buy things they see when they are happy or excited.

How Viewers Feel

Some people might not like Peak Points. Imagine getting interrupted right after a funny joke or a sad scene. You might want to keep watching so as not to see an ad.

  • You Can Skip Ads
    Most ads let you skip them after 5 seconds. But you need YouTube Premium to avoid all ads.

Another New Ad Type: Shoppable Feeds

YouTube also has shoppable ads. These let you buy things while watching an ad. For example, if an ad shows a cool backpack, you can click to buy it without leaving YouTube.

  • Good for Shoppers
    • Find products fast.
    • No need to search online later.

What This Means for You

Peak Points could make ads feel more related to what you watch. But they might also feel like bad timing. Here is how to handle them:

  • Use the Skip Button
    Tap “Skip Ad” after 5 seconds if you do not want to watch.
  • Try YouTube Premium
    Pay to remove all ads.

Why YouTube Is Changing

YouTube wants to make more money from ads. Since YouTube is the top app for TV streaming, companies want their ads there. But YouTube also needs to keep viewers happy.

Will This Make Watching Videos Annoying?

It depends. If ads match the video, they might feel helpful. If they interrupt your favorite part, they could be frustrating. YouTube hopes most people will like the relevant ads.

Coming Soon

Peak Points will start later in 2025. You will see them on phones, tablets, and TVs. Tell YouTube what you think by liking or disliking ads.
