Prime Video Rolls Out AI-Generated Video Recaps for Select Series

The beta expands Amazon’s recap tools with narrated, music-backed season summaries.

Overview

  • Amazon is starting a beta in the U.S. for English-language Prime Originals including Fallout, Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan, Upload, Bosch, and The Rig.
  • Viewers can launch the recaps from a dedicated button on each show’s page positioned alongside trailers.
  • Generative AI selects key moments by analyzing plot points and character arcs, then stitches clips with dialogue, music, effects, and an AI voiceover.
  • The feature builds on last year’s X-Ray Recaps, which Amazon said were designed with spoiler-avoidance guardrails.
  • The rollout aligns with broader industry adoption of AI, from YouTube TV’s Key Plays to Netflix’s production uses, as creators voice concerns about training data and job impacts.
