Videos and podcasts are unambiguously 1000x worse for vast amounts of learning - espesially anything with real depth - and as reference than e.g. text with selected a/v content. But we don't get that online anymore because it's easier to monetize content you need to stream at soneone else's pace.

If you're the sort of dipshit that watches a TED talk and thinks you've gained PhD level knowledge, or think ChatGPT is a PhD in you pocket - maybe 100% video is for you. And some topics and learners 💯 suit video. But in general video is about CONTROL and MONETIZATION, not about education.
