Net neutrality is about ISPs though.

The Scots guy is a better example, imo. Someone who was trying to contribute in a positive manner but filled the wiki with complete gibberish, as opposed to a troll, of which there many.
Yeah, it’s important to remember that wikipedia, itself, isn’t a source, it’s a summary of different sources. It’s a great resource to find sources and get an overview of a topic, though.
Yeah honestly not sure why so many people have been complaining about them. They're pretty much always relevant to the content that I like watching.
As much as I don’t love advertising, it’s mainly just the big corporations that wouldn’t care about a bit of a price lift. Small businesses will be hit disproportionately.
Some censorship is good tbh.
You’ve basically said the same thing over and over about four or five times now. And been shut down on the facts of it every single time. Aren’t you getting a little tired of that?
Yes, I am getting tired. You consistently argue against the pretty inoffensive and commonly understood arguments I have made with completely irrelevant points. So I’ll say it one more time and see if it can finally sink in. If someone wants to get into making videos, they’ll go to youtube for better or for worse. I’m not arguing about the pros and cons of Google’s influence, I’m saying that the reality is that youtube has enabled a huge amount of people to monetize their video creation and build an audience in a way that other competitors haven’t caught up with. If you’re arguing that the landscape for video creation and publishing on the internet is the same as it was before youtube rose to prevalence, then you’re just dead wrong. Sorry.
Also, you do understand that youtube was more successful than vimeo before google’s acquisition, right? Their success is kind of the whole reason google backed them.
Yes, but the backing by Google turned it into a viable career path for many creators. Name a single creator who posts to vimeo as their full time job. I’m not saying that youtube’s rise in popularity was necessarily good or ethical, I’m just saying that it is objectively better for creators over the other options.
I’m not saying people didn’t share videos beforehand, but youtube created a platform that allowed people to do it more easily, be discovered more easily, and actually make a decent living through it. The internet landscape, especially in respect to influencers or content creators, is entirely different now than it was in the 90’s.
make so video posters can’t delete comments
That would be a complete trainwreck. There are already loads of spam accounts but it would be so much worse if creators couldn’t filter them out.
Creators would exist without the platform. They always have.
Not sure what you mean with this. Youtube has allowed anyone with a camera and an internet connection to put content out in the world. It was completely different back before youtube existed.
Just buy it and you’ll get no ads. Not everything is free. There are plenty of other free options, anyways.
You say this like it’s not possible to be moral without religion.
Where it gets really challenging is that LLMs can take the assignment input and generate an answer that is actually more educational for the student than what they learned d in class.
That’s if the LLM is right. If you don’t know the material, you have no idea if what it’s spitting out is correct or not. That’s especially dangerous once you get to undergrad level when learning about more specialized subjects. Also, how can reading a paper be more informative than doing research and reading relevant sources? The paper is just the summary of the research.
and get a level of engagement equal to a private tutor for every student.
Eh. Even assuming it’s always 100% correct, there’s so much more value to talking to a knowledgeable human being about the subject. There’s so much more nuance to in person conversations than speaking with an AI.
Look, again, I do think that LLMs can be great resources and should be taken advantage of. Where we disagree is that I think the point of the assignment is to gain the skills to do research, analysis, and generally think critically about the material. You seem to think that the goal is to hand something in.
It can definitely be a good tool for studying or for organizing your thoughts but it’s also easily abused. School is there to teach you how to take in and analyze information and chat AIs can basically do that for you (whether or not their analysis is correct is another story). I’ve heard a lot of people compare it to the advent of the calculator but I think that’s wrong. A calculator spits out an objective truth and will always say the same thing. Chat GPT can take your input and add analysis and context in a way that circumvents the point of the assignment which is to figure out what you personally learned.
I mean you can. Most people who interact with computers aren’t that knowledgeable and just want their OS to have usable defaults which is fine.
Uber isn’t a taxi company. They don’t own a fleet. They’re a company that makes an app.
Not just undercutting competition but also by subverting regulations and organizations like unions.
I have no clue if it’s feasible to make three videos a day for 5.5 months, but I guess if the length of the video doesn’t matter then It must be doable.
It’s definitely a feat to do that. Some youtube channels are able to do it but they’re working with a team of people generally. With the amount that Amazon is offering, it’s not going to be viable to hire people to help and doing it on your own is an enormous amount of work. Even for short form content.
Google isn’t an ISP when it comes to youtube. Yes, they are an ISP in the context of Google fiber but this is completely different. It would be a violation of net neutrality if they slowed certain sites to fiber users.
