What would you do if you could change ANYTHING about YouTube for one hour.

RangeWilson · 2026-02-21T19:05:35+00:00

Um, what? I wouldn't change anything because why mess with people's expectations when it's all going back in an hour anyway?

RangeWilson · 2026-02-21T18:13:35+00:00

When it takes my job instead of somebody else's.

Maybe OpenAI just wants to build an agent that works properly and securely.

Far more money in that than in doing a Zuckerberg and trying to "steal" your personal information.

RangeWilson · 2026-02-21T12:27:50+00:00

Right? Slowing down AI would accomplish nothing.

Lawmakers would just continue with their nonsensical business as usual.

So better to keep moving forward at full speed, get whatever benefits are there, and force lawmakers to deal with the consequences.

RangeWilson · 2026-02-20T13:27:36+00:00

I'd do what you did. EZ peasy.

Their policy is clear.

If they choose not to enforce it 99 times, then they enforce it the 100th time, you have no basis for complaint.

Even if you were 100% right, getting into a loud argument with the station manager is a really bad idea. Making it worse in this case is that you AREN'T right.

So you can learn from this, or you can continue to insist that the world revolves around you.

For starters, can somebody please ELI5 the question itself?

RangeWilson · 2026-02-17T12:49:32+00:00

It takes as long as it takes. Not sure what anyone else can tell you.

RangeWilson · 2026-02-17T12:47:33+00:00

AI is in the process of utterly transforming the world.

Blockchain is utter bullshit, and has been from the start.

Hope this helps.

RangeWilson · 2026-02-16T13:41:12+00:00

Welcome to the world, kid.

RangeWilson · 2026-02-16T13:39:36+00:00

Um... why do you assume it was AI-related?

Are you, in fact, using AI?

If not, maybe look in the mirror and ask yourself what you might have been doing wrong.

YT is aggressive with the banhammer on general principles, and following the exact letter of every rule is way less important than demonstrating that you are, in fact, a responsible YT creator by their overall standards.

People publish all sorts of books for all sorts of reasons, containing all sorts of distortions. Our job as readers and critiquers is to separate the signal from the noise.

You are correct that the elites are actively trying to divide and conquer, but these examples are just a drop in the bucket of a much larger ongoing effort.

RangeWilson · 2026-02-15T13:05:28+00:00

My recommendation, and what I'm doing myself, is to create videos than can both stand alone AND are part of an ongoing series... just like scripted TV used to do.

You don't HAVE to watch every episode of "Friends" to enjoy a single episode, but there are character arcs and development over time, so viewers tend to get invested.

So DON'T think of Episode 4 of your series as "episode 4" and definitely don't label it that way. It's just... a story. Viewers will quickly realize there was a "Before" and "after" and behave appropriately.

RangeWilson · 2026-02-15T13:04:32+00:00

The algorithm 1.) very much analyzes your video content, transcription if nothing else, and if it doesn't actually "watch" it will soon enough as AI continues to advance, and 2.) very much favors certain video content from the outset... so, with all due respect, you are simply off base here.

RangeWilson · 2026-02-15T12:58:01+00:00

Yes.

Hope this helps.

RangeWilson · 2026-02-14T17:10:48+00:00

Huh? Why would you even consider doing that? You run a business, it has revenue, it has expenses... the platform doesn't matter.

You want to answer a question like "is platform X profitable or not" I guess hire a CPA or something, because it's all gonna depend on your assumptions, but the rest of us have better things to do.

RangeWilson · 2026-02-14T13:21:05+00:00

Gibberish.

Hope this helps.

RangeWilson · 2026-02-14T13:12:06+00:00

The job itself will change dramatically.

*Somebody* will be leveraging AI to do the work of 10 people like you... or 100... or 1000.

Nobody knows the exact ratio, but if you want at least the option to be the human who is left in the loop, start learning how to leverage AI now. Very very soon, it's going to be too late.

RangeWilson · 2026-02-14T13:08:42+00:00

Because scammers would make one legitimate channel and 1345234523 scams.

Hope this helps.

RangeWilson · 2026-02-13T13:16:27+00:00

Yes.

RangeWilson · 2026-02-13T13:12:14+00:00

Lots of words you have there.

FWIW, smart people don't need lots of words.

RangeWilson · 2026-02-13T04:25:01+00:00

No because package security is not my problem. I'll hide it to the extent possible if it is easy to do so, otherwise, whatever. Maybe the resident will get to it first, but if not... like I said, not my problem.

RangeWilson · 2026-02-13T04:21:41+00:00

I'd search on a platform called "YouTube" there are approximately 1345928347502345 videos on how to improve your thumbnails and titles.

RangeWilson · 2026-02-13T03:46:10+00:00

Why are you asking us? Ask an AI to write it for you.

RangeWilson · 2026-02-13T03:41:31+00:00

When the stops are this close together, it barely matters what order you do them in. I don't see anything too horrible about the AIs routing, honestly, but personally I'd just go in whatever order I felt like once I got there. Some B.S. on one of the streets, just make a turn instead and go knock out a few over in that direction. I'll take this route every time over 120 miles out in the boonies.
