Ruined by Technology Youtube replacing comments with AI summary

Sliding the comment card left and right both shows AI crap instead of just the comments. Just give me human interactions ffs.

AI summary is great. When you see a clickbaity title or something that could be communicated in thirty seconds stretched into 15+ minutes you just hit the summary and move on. Just because it says "AI" doesn't mean you are obligated to hate it.

No they are referring to the summary of the comments section, not the video itself.

When I swipe right on the comment card it goes to an AI summary card. Which seems to match wat OP is describing. I have revanced so things may be different though. I definitely agree that it's hard to imagine why somebody would want an AI to summarize comments.
