You're going to watch a two hour YouTube video some guy posts and leaves 0 comment as to why he posted it?
You misunderstand -- AI summaries are faggot shit. Why can't the poster summarize in his own terms?
I mean they should but I'd rather have an AI summary at a minimum than nothing at all. The poster should post a summary of the video and at least have a reason for why they're sharing it.
Look at you volunteering to summarize every long video without a human summary!
Great work man. The hours you are willing to commit to save us form human-slop is just ... a real contribution!
Thanks in advance, buddy!
Couldn't you just get AI to summarize it for you yourself?
Could've you just not read the useful AI summary?
I think we can do better than an AI summary. If someone's gonna dump a link to a two hour video then they can damn well take the two minutes to type up why the hell we should care about it.
I'm kind of ambivalent to the AI summary, but I think forcing the friction of demanding the poster put in some perfunctory level of effort does a lot to discourage lazy and worthless postings. There are lots of people who just want their little dopamine hit of thread response notifications rather than to actually engage in discourse or the dissemination of valuable information.
My ambivalence is getting weighted more to the negative side by the day as the worst people leverage the worst aspects of it, the least offensive being lazily generating a summary of some random video just to get fake internet points as you say, and the worst being someone who thought a version number for a piece of software was an IP address telling a room full of developers that their jobs are going to be obsolete and that they need to deal with it.
Perhaps I take it too personal but I kinda have to, I only truly know what is personal to me.
