Don't mind sponsors as long as the companies are reliable and make sense. This kind of quality work definitely deserves more compensation than you are currently getting.
I know some of these songs, especially with lame lyrics are fire. I didn't really appreciate the power of AI generated music until I started using it frequently.
Sponsors are great. You're making an impact in a different way than most. I am looking forward to the Matt Wolf interview. Ending with an AI song ❤ glad I sup
Automatically detect illness in poor people? What a preposterous idea. Most likely such system would be used to detect insincerity of dissenters. It will inform not parents but authorities.
New, organic designs are awesome, especially combined with 3D printed houses! Have you seen videos of these? I saw one not too long ago where they showed how the walls have a cool, layered relief structure, because of the printing. I also saw something about robotic stone cutters that can cut out intricate patterns in a short amount of time, leaving only the detailed polishing job to the human stonecutters. They were using them in the USA somewhere to restore facades of old buildings.
Do what you need to as far as sponsors go. You deserve to get paid for your work. Your content is really enjoyable and I'm always pulling for you to succeed!
Sponsors are fine in video if timestamps are provided to skip. Also the most watchable ads are probably Ryan George skit ads not that probably helps much.
@@dylan_curious creativity is definitely preferred over the inherent cringe when transitioning to an ad segment tends to have. In your case I’d probably use Ai to help brainstorm the transition and how to integrate something applicable to your other topics of the day so it feels less out of place, perhaps using the sponser in conjunction with a Ai topic use case example or something.
@@dylan_curious I still remember watching LTT's April's fools sponsor-only video... But yeah, in general he got some pretty decent ad spots on average. the Corridor folks often also do a pretty good job too. Don't just copy their style though, gotta dig deeper and understand the structure, the logic, of how they make it fit with their regular content and their style, and adapt the approach to your own channel.
Everytime I see that graph showing how close we are to AGI, it makes me wonder if the government truly hit AGI 20 years ago. Maybe we're just focusing on public AGI but already living in a ASI world. Or maybe we've already reached the singularity 🤷🏽♂️🤯.
Just gotta say that your awsome man, your doing everything 100% right. Let me start. 1. You have a funny perspective on things and your small reactions to them are details that add a great value. 2. You report on news that the others dont talk about very much, good research, must take alot of time =). 3. You have a great studio, camera, light and so on plus that you have editing skills. So keep up the good job and of course you like everyone else need money so go for sponsors. There is no shame in making money. Especially if you deliver somthing that is as good your content.
Good idea! If I get to the point where I really get close to taking one on I will ask. Especially if I include the exact sponsor so I can see if people trust the company.
They are already using AI in hospitals for high speed stroke diagnosis. I can't remember where I was reading it but one national health authority was citing a 3-fold increase in stroke rehabilitation because it lowered the analysis time and strokes are one of the most time critical health events. That is a MASSIVE health outcome if true.
I appreciate the feedback. It’s good to know how you feel cause sometimes that stuff can get pretty sticky. I’m gonna make sure to find good partners if I do it.
Views are getting pretty consistent, my man! Great work 👏 Also, great work with the sponsor, man. I fully support it. If you get bigger, lmk where I can apply for a research/writing position. I have a BA in English and do a ton of AI articles research anyways.
Go for the sponsor. Only those who have been watching up till now will know you didn’t have ads or sponsors etc. The soon to be thousands of new subscribers will just see it as being normal and enjoy the content. Go for it. BTW, great channel and In enjoy your humour and delivery. The AI doctor reckons you have ‘Pink Eye’ and not a blown blood vessel 😂…. Makes you look a little uncanny valley yourself..
How is Gamora more nonhuman than Worf on the uncanny valley scale??? My mind first perceives them both as humans in make up and then my imagination allows me to believe they are aliens.
@@dylan_curious Daily use isn't a great idea in my opinion. I'm lucky that I only got a prescription in my 20s looking back. I actually take dexamphetamine (just the d-enantiomer of the amphetamine molecule). Just the focus and motivation without the jitters.
Some people despise sponsorship announcements. They feel like a kind of betrayal to the audience. At least that's how I feel. I want to 'punish' RUclipsrs who throw sponsorship announcements at me midstream. I may be less tolerant that most but my advice is this. You are a healthy and growing channel. If you hold our until you're nearing 50K or even 100K, I'll still feel betrayed but you'll get a good pay packet. However if you start hosting sponsorship ads now, you may find that your growth will begin to slow.
Sponsors, most of us probably dont like them, but most of us are probably adults too. So it's cool if ya gotta do what ya gotta do. 👍 If it helps the channel sustain great content, then go for it!
It would be ideal to just make money from the RUclips ads. And I estimate that I probably have to get around 40,000 views per video before that made sense.
I think you should 100% take on some sponsors - I often find they offer interesting and useful products/services. $15-20 CPM is a good starting point as it's only about 2.5% of video time for about 200% of the YT CPM for equivalent time - or 80 x YT. Just do a little research into the product/service offered to make sure it's A) legit and B) well targeted to the viewers AND the channel.
Those NFT organisms aren't going to prove who invented it. It'll just show who uploaded it to the block chain. Same thing happened with art. The artists didn't make money. People stealing their art and uploading it did. Plus you don't need to own the NFT to simply follow the link to the source file. "Don't ctrl-c ctrl-v my bacteria!" Patents already solve this issue. More securely, mind you, than this NFT junk that adds nothing but an easy to grift. Also, your Tesla doesn't learn from your driving habits. At most it gets updated periodically to update its driving routines.
I certainly don't want to take on sponsors, and if it limits my channel in terms of respect, growth or entertainment it's not worth it but good to get your feedback.
@@dylan_curious I'm not bothered by ads because I'm YT Premium subscriber. As far as sponsor ads go, if I'm not in the mood or whatever I'll just ffwd, but if I really like a channel, like yours, I'll take the time to let the ad play out.
26:09 so if it’s an hour ep, is it worth twice the amount of views based on revenue? That doesn’t make sense to me, is revenue based on the amount of mid-roll ads that you can cram in there or?
If the sponsor is ethical, and the ad honest, I would be ok with it. If you can figure out how to make your ads enjoyable, even better. I'm not very good at "picturing" time, so I dunno if the time-span you mentioned would be too disruptive or not. Some people are completely repulsed by all forms of ads though, I may be an outlier; for me if it's not a bad company, and if the ad itself it's not spyware nor a potential malware vector, I tend to be between neutral and positive on ads, specially when the ads are actually entertaining. ps: Talking about malware, beware of apps and such supposed sponsors may send you to test or demonstrate; some fake sponsors have stolen RUclips channels with that kind of thing. If you gotta run/open stuff, get a separate computer that never touched any of your credentials to any important account etc; and use that only for testing and such; and to be extra safe, might be a good idea to wipe it clean and reimage it from a known clean state afterwards, just in case. And of course, don't log with the same account you use for your channel to download attachments on the test machine, if you need to get files, forward to a separate account or something (USB drives and network storage could be a tad risky if the attackers are advanced enough).
I am good with sponsors that are related to the content. A political message that tells me about pillows is annoying. But those of us watching your channel are probably a bit tech. So cloud storage, VPN, web dev, better computer tech, AI tools, etcetera would work. Up to you. Money is money. As long as you agree with the product/service you're sponsored by then you aren't just a slave to the machine. Selling your soul for rubles or rupee. Imagine someone volunteering to have their entire brain case transparent. Then they wear a wig I guess. They'd be a killer at Halloween.
I am going, to share a lot of these comments with the potential sponsor and see what they think about it because it’s positive hopefully that will help
Sponsors: Everybody else is doing it, why shouldn't you? Go for it. EtA: I've said it before & I'll say it again... You're in the space, man, stop discounting yourself.

Thanks!
Wow!! A super thanks! You are the best. These really support the channel. Let me know if there’s any topic you want me to cover or anything. You rock.
Don't mind sponsors as long as the companies are reliable and make sense. This kind of quality work definitely deserves more compensation than you are currently getting.
Agreed keep it authentic to your niche
I really appreciate you being open about how RUclips works. And I love the song at the end. :)
I know some of these songs, especially with lame lyrics are fire. I didn't really appreciate the power of AI generated music until I started using it frequently.
Congrats on your growth, you'll be at 100k by September!
That would be amazing!
He definitely deserves it! I love this channel.
I definitely think you should take a sponsor. You deserve it for the awesome content.
Sponsors are great. You're making an impact in a different way than most. I am looking forward to the Matt Wolf interview. Ending with an AI song ❤ glad I sup
sponsor is perfectly fine.
very understandable that you (like all of us) need money and a stable income.
Absolutely agreed
Automatically detect illness in poor people? What a preposterous idea. Most likely such system would be used to detect insincerity of dissenters. It will inform not parents but authorities.
my new favourite AI news channel! ;-)
You are a funny guy and your videos are cool.
Thanks man, just doing what I love. Glad you enjoyed.
Grimlock is getting an attitude!
He is like that when he is hungry, and he is usually hungry.
This channel is on FIRE, the amount and frequency of quality content on it is amazing.

I did not know of Ryan George but just watched some of his ad skits. Gosh. maybe I could try to make them fun to watch. Interesting. Food for thought

@@dylan_curious Also, look into Why Files's ad skits. They are top notch 🤘 Maybe find a way to involve Grimlock in the skits?

The singularity will be like the Event Horizon of a black hole, you pass through it without knowing but there is way to turn back.
@@dylan_curious maybe that's what Y2K or 2012 of the Mayan calendar really was.
The Mandela effect makes me think that the someone already controls AGI.
Take the cash. You deserve to get some payback for this great content.
I'm really enjoying the Grimlock content! :D
Hard work.
Appreciate.
Sponsor yes.

Ok, that's good to hear how you feel. Thanks for sharing your opinion.
a refreshing take on ai thats simply dylan. agility robotics pls make grimlock a sibling...
Sponsers are fine👍
OK, that's good to know how you feel. I'll add that to the feedback I'm collecting. Thanks for leaving a comment.
Put up a poll to your viewer about taking on a sponsor.
Good idea! If I get to the point where I really get close to taking one on I will ask. Especially if I include the exact sponsor so I can see if people trust the company.
@@dylan_curious SMART!💁♂️

Sponsorships are essential
Thanks for the support good to know how you feel.
Dude, at this point I just click on your videos to see if your eye has gotten better. 🤣 Almost there.
Haha, not the reason I ever expected to get a view but hey, I will take it. Thanks for the concern.

Agreed, I'm sure Dylan will make it entertaining as well. And it's not like every other big RUclipsr doesn't have sponsors.
I am 💯 ok with sponsors
IMHO, if you need to make more money, then a tasteful advert is totally acceptable. Go for it.
Pretty sure Dr. Thompson bumped it up to 75% with the dropping of Claude 3.5. 💁♂
Oh my gosh, I freaked out when I saw it today! I was filming a video a couple hours ago and came across it without knowing it been updated!
Get you money dude.
