Twelve Labs is Building AI That Can Analyze and Search Through Videos
Users Can Search Through Videos for Specific Moments, Summarize Clips, or Ask Questions
AI models that understand videos as well as text can unlock powerful new applications. At least, that’s what Jae Lee, the co-founder of Twelve Labs, believes. Granted, Lee’s a little biased.
