> Lastly, a video is a video. It is not another person
Was this earnestly your takeaway? I'm not sure you'll find anyone interested in arguing that a video is equivalent to a person.
When I fix snowmobile engines I'd obviously prefer the company of a free and patient instructor showing me on his own machine right in front of me. This is not something that is available, so I settle for videos.
> If you think a video from a company trying to sell you clothes, hosted on Alphabet's servers, is a substitute for another person, especially in this age of AI generated content, I suggest you take a step back and reflect on what human connection really means
Yeah, nobody believes that. A human is a human and a video is a video.
This was a really bizarre strawman, dude, you didn't need to write so much about a position nobody's remotely trying to argue.
