25. It's important that people who are neurodivergent are understood by others, and that they understand

their own differences and what works best for them. Same goes for introverts.

But there are good sources of information from real experts, available online and off. Including articles with links to more information.

The videos on that channel are instant analysis and advice via chatbot, and overly simplistic (there's even one on what liking the color black supposedly says about you). The one in the OP, for instance, has an "introverts over extroverts" bias that's just as wrong as an "extroverts over introverts" bias. Neither is superior to the other, and it's misleading and harmful to believe either is.

Given that the YouTuber is using genAI to churn out videos every day or two, it's possible they have another channel on extroversion and having lots of friends supposedly being superior to introversion. And maybe a channel on the importance of dieting. And another on why you shouldn't diet. And one that's anti-Trump. And another that's pro-Trump. AI is perfect for clickbait that requires no personal interest or knowledge whatsoever. I've seen YouTube advice to their creators telling them to ask AI for subjects to post videos about.

People should look to real experts, not channels of clickbait from AI users just churning out content and hoping to monetize it. YouTube can be monetized, and so can the beehiiv platform that channel links to.

The entire channel is apparently AI-generated. See reply 17. highplainsdem Dec 4 #18

I wasn't sure exactly how to read "glurge" but it could be a drowning-in-AI-slop noise. And YouTube highplainsdem Dec 4 #21

Glurge is a pre-AI term for slop. There were plenty of memes in FB's heydey that told people how very special they were WhiskeyGrinder Dec 4 #22

The video, AI generated or not, does not say anything that is not true. CousinIT Dec 5 #28

It does show a bias against extroverts and people who have a lot of friends, and that's divisive and highplainsdem Dec 5 #31
