Now in Multiple Languages: Auto-Dubbing of Dr. Bikmanâs Videos
Apr 13, 2025
Weâre excited to announce that our YouTube channel is now part of a select group of creators with access to YouTubeâs new auto-dubbing technologyâmaking Benâs educational science content available to more people than ever before.
Breaking Language Barriers
YouTube has begun rolling out a powerful new tool that automatically translates and dubs videos into other languages. This allows viewers around the world to hear content in their own language rather than just reading subtitles. For people who prefer learning through spoken wordâor who may not be able to read subtitles easilyâthis is a game-changer.
And yes, we now have it.
What Is Auto-Dubbing?
Auto-dubbing uses advanced AI to translate and synthesize new audio tracks in different languages, matched to the speakerâs voice and tone as closely as possible. This isn't just machine translationâYouTube has designed this feature to deliver natural, human-sounding results.
Right now, the feature supports English-to-German, French, Japanese, Hindi, Indonesian, Portuguese, Spanish, and Italian (with more to come). Youâll see the option to switch audio tracks directly in the YouTube video settings, as shown in the screenshot below:
(Please note: YouTube is not automatically applying this auto-dubbing feature to all of Dr. Bikmanâs older videos. It is only being applied to new videos going forward. The very first video to receive auto-dubbing was just released this weekââFast vs. Slow Insulin Resistance.â If you donât see the option for alternate audio tracks on earlier videos, thatâs why.)
Why This Matters for Global Health Education
Dr. Bikmanâs research and lectures on insulin resistance, metabolic health, and human physiology have already impacted lives across the globe. Now, with this new auto-dubbing feature, we can reach even more peopleâin their native languagesâwith a clear and consistent message grounded in science.
Whether itâs someone in Germany trying to reverse type 2 diabetes, a medical student in France studying metabolism, or a nutrition coach in Italy wanting to better understand insulin, this feature opens new doors.
A Select Group of CreatorsâAnd Weâre One of Them
YouTube has only made this feature available to a relatively small group of channelsâparticularly those creating high-quality educational content. With millions of channels on YouTube, weâre honored to be among the first to offer this enhanced accessibility.
A Closing Thought
This isnât just a technical updateâitâs a mission booster. Weâve always believed that science should be accessible, and now, more than ever, Dr. Bikmanâs insights can serve a truly global audience.
If you know someone who would benefit from this new capability, especially if English isn't their first language, feel free to share this exciting update with them.
