My life's goal isn't to be rich.

It's to work 3-4 hours per day, help thousands of people, have plenty of time for exploring hobbies, spend time outside, cook with my wife, exercise whenever I want, and avoid pointless meetings.

That's all I care about.

@CanadianRuns I wasn't aware. Thanks

[Rami @Ramiroytoy]

@SocialtyPro The interview kinda makes me second-guess all the advice he gives in his videos now, so it makes sense why he would delete it from a business standpoint. It’s not just purely ego, but also how it affects his perceived authority.

@robertoblake @dennisleytonb For real, and driving

[Rami @Ramiroytoy]

@dennisleytonb @robertoblake You are partially right as well. I'm 100% sure the AI "ask" feature under the video lowers average view duration.
There are so many times where I just asked it to summarize a video and I got the same value without spending +10 minutes.

[Rami @Ramiroytoy]

I think it does quite the opposite. It tells people what they're clicking to watch. So you'll only get viewers who are actually interested in the topics discussed, as opposed to people who will click the video and then leave after finding out they're not interested.
So less quantity of views maybe, but more AVD.

[Rami @Ramiroytoy]

@robertoblake It does the same thing as previewing videos when you hover your mouse over them.
It makes sense, we make hooks and intros to convey to the audience what the video entails. The AI summary works the same as the intro, but before the click.

@michaelricks I always thought we should put dots instead of commas after making statements, but I asked chatgpt to analyze the first line of your message and it said it works too. Thanks for making me learn something new

People who use Ad blockers are indirectly contributing to the decline of YouTube as a platform.

YouTube is an ecosystem that depends on advertiser dollars and also it's a meritocracy that incentivizes creators who generate ad revenue.

Ad blockers = lower ad revenue = decline of content quality on the entire platform.

[Roberto Blake 🇺🇸🇵🇦 Creative Entrepreneur @robertoblake]

The views that went down across YouTube in the last few months (6-8 months) were the 35% of users using Ad Blocker no longer counting as views.

Also nobody brings up that this also means you don’t get affiliate revenue from the people using Ad Blocker clicking links, and unless they use a checkout code, no attribution for sponsor clicks either.

Ad Block Audience is completely worthless to a creator at this point.

No views, no monetization, no sponsor value. They just get free content with no value exchanged.

Explains why making parodies of music videos was literally how I started my Youtube career.

The nostalgia is nostalging, man.

[Roberto Blake 🇺🇸🇵🇦 Creative Entrepreneur @robertoblake]

Most people don’t acknowledge that much of early YouTube didn’t thrive on original content creators the first few years… it was the default for watching your favorite Music Videos…

Which till this day are collectively the most watched individual videos on YouTube BTW…

And for YouTube’s biggest stars of the 2010s to take off and go full-time… YouTube invested $100M, a small loan of $1M each into 100 top creators to give them the ability to make TV level production and grow a sustainable business…

The majority of channels didn’t break even…

The term "AI Slop" will soon lose it's meaning, because it's being misused.

People are calling everything AI = low quality… even when real effort, creativity, and skill are involved.

Meanwhile, the actual problem slips through:
content that’s deceptive, mass-produced, and built to exploit attention.

So, the question isn’t “was AI used?”

It’s:
Was this made with intention… or just generated?”

@Justsimplyrob_ @DramaAlert Some people just willingly want to die early

[Rami @Ramiroytoy]

@ItsFunfact Creators have the freedom to persue what they love regardless of whether or not AI content floods YouTube.

[Rami @Ramiroytoy]

I was just trying to make the point that viewers should be the ones who decide what to watch based on which videos they think are better.

Right now YouTube is a meritocracy, all videos are equal (in terms of AI vs Human made)

So is it really YouTube’s job to artificially nerf AI assisted videos if it will lead to less meritocracy/viewer satisfaction?
