We can see that already in youtube. Look at all the copycat AI slop history channels.

Some are pumping out a video full of innacuracies and shit everyday whereas a good creator may take weeks to put out a single well researched and illustrated video.

That's why I stick to the ones that I know are good:

Technology Connections
Cathode Ray Dude
LGR
Techmoan
RandomGamingInHD
BudgetBuildsOfficial

GamersNexus gets a little up their own ass sometimes, but I do like that they are fighting battles.

EDIT: forgot DawidDoesTechStuff

Gameranx is good too. Especially their Before You Buy. I personally like that they don't get into the technical weeds. There is a time and place for Digital Foundry.
