Yes. The demonitization rate has palpably increased. YT says that’s because of the pandemic reducing their frequency of manual reviews, and so the algorithm rules. Almost every episode we’ve done about COVID-19 has been demonitized, despite the fact that Bill has labored intensely to tamp down the media-induced panic, and is not promoting crazy conspiracies, or snake-oil cures.
Figures. There’s a lot more A than I in AI.
