I literally never watch a YouTube videos, as they are just a waste of time. For a given video on a given topic, the same amount of information can be obtained by a decently written blog or article that can be read in a 1/10 of the time it takes to watch q video filled by nonsense blabbering and sponsored segments for revenues. In some extreme cases, if the topic seems really, really , REALLay interesting, I may ask an LLM to summarize the video for me. People should stop linking YouTube videos altogether.
Watch veritasium videos, they are well researched and informative. I have sponsor block and ad block so I don't get annoyed
Veritasium is not super high on my trustworthiness list after the self-driving car ad incident
