Thumbnail is clickbait in the sense that the video does not address specific instances by specific creators, but is more of a call on everyone to reflect on certain behaviors we might/might not engage with. Just watch the first two minutes if that’s all the time you have right now, but do that much at least.

Edit: Some people are taking quotes that the AI has written in a comment and acting as if that’s what’s actually in the video. It’s not. I thought it should be obvious that if you want to critique the video, you have to watch it rather than depend on an AI to to provide a a summary.

      Sorry if that was a bit aggressive, it does seem that you were trying to engage in good faith, I’m just not a fan of summarizing with LLMs unless it’s for a bit. They’ll never be able to actually parse the information in a video or book right and will just give you something that looks correct, but can misrepresent major parts of an argument or story.

      How do you imagine that some LLM that doesn’t even have access to the video would be able to summarize it? I’d give it less than a 50% chance of giving a decent summary of most novels or short stories unless you paste the whole text into the prompt. What the hell is it supposed to do about a video?

        I copied and pasted the whole transcript into Claude. That’s how.

        But I get it. God damn.

          That’s interesting. Doesn’t it have weird line breaks, or did you go through and fix those instead of just writing a summary yourself? At least from what I remember of retrieving a transcripts on YT recently, that’s how it goes.

          Then again, we’re again talking about a LLM, so even if we imagine that it parses that okay for what it is, it’s still just using spitballing based on aggregated data to write what it thinks is plausible-sounding on a basis of syntax, vocabulary, and formatting rather than something like concepts. It’s much more the superficial level of communication than people tend to believe.
