I'm still waiting for the AI service that turns those 10 minute videos into a text tutorial with photos.

I think it's pretty damning that it's not a built in YouTube feature by now.

Lots of limitations here but they do offer an 'ask' button under some circumstances: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/14110396?hl=en

I've found it to be helpful in getting quicker information out of some 'review' style videos, where I can ask a few pointed questions and get answers faster than the narrator can get to that info. I hadn't found it to be wrong in my few attempts with it, but ymmv

let's go kantian and imagine everyone would use such a service

why would someone create a 10 minute video if no one would watch it and they would get no money for it?

I assume some folks prefer the videos but if not, then why are they getting made?

The creator can use the tool themselves and post it with ads. In fact, I'd prefer it.
