YouTube is not the problem here. Some people don’t want to listen to some idiot talking. Where is the text, god damn it. I sometimes use AI to turn a video into text because I hate watching videos for information so much.
I hate when the information I’m trying to get is trapped in a video. It’s not often that I can’t find text alternatives, but it happens on occasion. Being trapped watching a video whose purpose is only partly to deliver information (the other part to game the algo and appease sponsors), when I could have found the info I needed in 30 seconds if it was text – that’s my idea of torture.
One of the very few legitimately game-changing aspects of AI in my life is video summaries.

I’d love a bot for that
