  That’s a problem with the summary though, not with me taking the description seriously.

  If your summary misrepresents the video, why include it? It’s gonna do the opposite of what you add it for.

  Do you watch every video available? I certainly can’t. So I make use of teasers and descriptions. That’s what they’re there and useful for.

    Before commenting in threads about them, yes. If you’re not going to watch a video or read an article then don’t comment. No one wants to read yet another uneducated opinion that is likely not even related to the actual topic being discussed (since you people only ever read headlines and clickbait titles).

    Sure, me too, but when you literally say “Instant disqualification for me” that’s an insane reaction. You should know when reading a summary that it’s not a perfect representation of the source. Even human-written summaries or articles very often misunderstand or misrepresent their sources, many times stating the exact opposite of the source because of it. This obviously happens with AI summaries as well. The “instant disqualification” is what you can’t excuse.
