> Neurosama, an AI streamer, is massively popular.

I think some level of Neuro's popularity is due to the Vedal + Neuro double act though, and some of the scripted/prepared replies.

Absolutely, and in picking collabs with people who are willing to work with the weirdness and make it funny. Vedal is definitely a fantastic creator to make it work so well and the amount of fine-tuning and tweaking he must do must be unreal. But I think it still shows there is some hunger for this type of content, though you are probably correct that it still needs to be curated, gardened, worked with, and sometimes faked.
Yes, it's a success, but not a scalable one.

There probably aren't a lot of decent streamers who are also AI developers around.
