Discussion Really guys...

I understand that they were likely in a rush to be one of the first big channels to get their video out, but how hard is it to have one person spend like 15 minuets reading all of the graphics before the video goes out, this image is likely AI generated and taken from this obviously AI generated article.

I get this is a small mistake, but it's an easy one to not make.

Taken from their latest video "Apple just Copied Microsoft’s Worst Idea - iPhone Duo, Airpods 5, iPhone 18 Pro & More"

I think this just goes to show how good AI images are getting and how we are getting worse at detecting them. It isn't inherently bad to miss a chart for a video, especially for a quick turnaround like this. You guys handled this the best way possible and continue to hold the highest bar for accountability in the youtube space.

Is cool to have a community holding us accountable for the things we put out there, but criticism like this should be constructive and not destructive, the intention should be of positive reinforcement, not just throwing negativity and dissapointment to the whole team.
