Is it really possible to even disrupt Youtube? It's been a constant in our lives for the past 20 years and is basically a historical record by now. By a rough estimate, they have to keep buying over 1% of the total world production of HDD drives just to stay on top of the new data being uploaded. Google has completely destroyed it, placing more ads than videos on it, making it unusable without an adblocker and people still use it, it's that core to everyone's lives. It's like a public utility.

I've been thinking about it. AI generated videos. It could be generating a DSL or IR for some sort of multimedia VM so there's only a tiny fraction of data. Just common textures and shapes in a CDN. Could be fully interactive.

I wouldn't be surprised if most of it was already tried in some form.
