  • Citation needed. When you hover over a video’s progress bar, there is displayed a little graph showing something resembling a probability density function for timestamps users most frequently skip to. Advertisers can use this information to determine how likely a user is to sit through a sponsorship for a given channel.

    Not that that matters. Don’t feel like you need to watch ads. Advertising is bad in all its forms.







  • There’s too much AI being used in the video. Something is off about the voice as well.

    Edit: IMO, a pretty clear sign the channel is AI is the name. Purportedly a native English speaker capable of making computer chips in a shed, but made a careless mistake naming the channel “Dr.Semiconductor”, omitting a space after “Dr.”. The first video uploaded a month ago has the same tells that the voice is AI-generated as this 2-hour-long video on C++. Those are also both videos with a similar number of views uploaded by a channel with no previous history with clear AI-generated imagery. The entire channel is AI and it appears lots of people are being easily fooled. The voice is AI. The videos and imagery are AI. The script is likely AI. The video idea might be AI. Even the comments might be AI. The only thing that isn’t clearly AI is the channel name. The 400k views on the first video could be fraudulently automated. It looks like this stuff has gotten good enough to fool people as recently as 5 months ago, possibly earlier. Welcome to the dead internet.
