This is truly a valuable skill in this day and age. For me, the biggest benefit was accessibility. Using an ai caption generator https://www.gstory.ai/subtitle-generator ensures my videos can be understood by people with hearing impairments. It also helps international viewers when combined with translation tools. I use it regularly to Add Subtitles to Video content on my website. This makes my brand appear more inclusive and professional.
