“As a person with a channel with 130k subs I can say the YouTube studio now doesn’t work well. Their integration of ai into the platformhas totally made doing hastags a chore. It used to pop up the hashtags I always use. No ai neededthey just pop up when I begin to type them. Now because ai is a part of the YouTube studio it now tries to pop up tons of irrelevant hashtags and as ai am typing in the hashtag I want it automatically finished it with something different so I cannot even just type in”

“I'm noticing a pattern on some very popular channels, particularly emergency service ones, where they are fabricating sensational thumbnails which appear to be directly from the footage in the video. Example below shows an image which appears to be at 14:10:13 (time at the top right), and the actual footage at that timestamp. Surely this is borderline misrepresentation - could somebody sue? https://preview.redd.it/8jt85svrnsah1.png?width=738&format=png&auto=webp&s=553c8a6cd72f2b9”
