YouTubers: For The Attention Of
Jun. 9th, 2026 09:38 am"Terrifying", "Disturbing", Worse than we thought"- Sorry, chaps, but your revelations are none of these things. Yes, I want to know what's new in archaeology etc, but I'm an old bird and you can't tell me anything that's going to knock me off my perch. Sell, but don't oversell- and stop appealing to the lowest emotions. Sometimes when scrolling down through your latest offerings I think, "I don't want to do this anymore".....
Also, there's good AI and there's crap AI- and if a vid is too obviously being narrated by a machine or is illustrated with bog standard AI images of the kind I've seen many times before it has to be very, very interesting to prevent me from clicking out.
Yet again, come to the point and don't string me along, because if you do I'll abandon you and find something to read on the subject- and that'll take me a couple of minutes and not the three quarters of an hour you're hoping to hold me for.
Now for something positive. I've been watching 30 year old episodes of Cadfael with Derek Jacobi- and I do love how you guys archive such things.
