Popular science videos is still filler; I'd be inclined agree if you were scrolling MIT lectures (and watching them in their entirety), but how much of actual knowledge (and not random tidbits) do you retain from short form videos?

Where is popular science videos coming from? Blogs, Wikipedia, research papers, Substacks, newspapers, magazines, ChatGPT, etc.
I don't think there is anything inherently wrong with a short form video in conveying information but what information in this context can be compressed down to fit?

How much can you really learn from even a 30 second Feynman lecture?
