My bet- it’s the conspiracy nuts.

When AI videos started to flood YouTube, science was one of the biggest areas. It’s stuff like “scientists discover potential signs of vacuum collapse”, then have 4 minutes of clips before going full AI and rambling about quantum physics for an hour

I think they just take a grab bag of technical terms and theories, have AI spit out a title, and feed it into a video pipeline.

Then they bait and switch you

Now throw in a title about Elon musk discovering aliens, and anyone who clicks on it is probably low functioning enough not to realize
