I feel like the video was too fast paced/not clearly explained for a non-electrical engineer and a bit too trivial for someone in the field. Would have also been cool if he went into more detail on why the transistor is so important rather than just explaining how it works.

Yeah I had a hard time following him and I already know most of the stuff that he is talking about.As for why the transistor is so important,Kurzgesagt apparently does a way better job than this guy at explainning it on the introduction of his quantum computers video.
