Amazon Prime Video has begun offering X-Ray Recaps, summaries of favorite TV shows that catch you up without risk of spoilers. The generative AI-powered feature can create snapshots of any requested view — episodes, pieces of episodes or full seasons of TV shows. “Whether you’re a few minutes into a new episode, halfway through a season” or took a break to get popcorn and need a quick refresher, X-Ray Recaps will catch you up “personalized down to the exact minute of where you are watching,” according to Amazon, which assures “guardrails are applied” to ensure the generation of spoiler-free summaries.

X-Ray Recaps is powered by Amazon Bedrock, the turnkey AWS platform for building and scaling generative AI applications using foundation models. Although the average Prime user is unlikely to ever have heard of the B2B service, Amazon is using in its X-Ray Recaps marketing to explain how the app works.

“Utilizing a combination of Amazon Bedrock models and custom AI models trained on Amazon SageMaker, X-Ray Recaps analyzes various video segments, combined with subtitles or dialogue, to generate detailed descriptions of key events, places, times and conversations,” Amazon notes in a news post.

Currently in beta, X-Ray Recaps is available in the U.S. via Amazon Fire TV connected devices with a plan to add support for more devices later this year.

“At launch, Prime Video viewers can use X-Ray Recaps for all Amazon MGM Studios original series,” Variety reports, explaining that the recaps can be accessed on compatible devices “from the Prime Video detail page or during playback on the X-Ray experience.”

IndieWire writes that “at any time while watching, you can pause the show and activate the feature,” adding that “it’s like having ChatGPT on your remote, but you can only prompt it to tell you what happened last week on ‘The Wheel of Time.’”

“Instead of scouring the Internet for a summary of a TV show, which often risks unintentionally revealing major plot points, Prime Video’s latest feature aims to save viewers from encountering any spoilers,” says TechCrunch, noting that the move “comes on the heels of rival Google TV releasing AI-generated summaries, a similar tool that creates brief synopses of TV shows and movies.”
