Why is YouTube like this?

And by this, I mean
And by this, I mean overly sensationalized, insanely over-the-top, highly edited, and fake. I mean, is it just me, or does most content on this platform feel dystopian, artificial, and soulless?
The content we watch has evolved, there is no doubting it. What was once a place to post fun videos with your friends is now a platform for corporations to market their brand, for people to generate passive income, and for creators to succeed, whatever this means.
And this isn't all bad, but if I'm being honest, the worst aspects of all these things really stand out and create a nauseating experience for the average user.
But something has recently changed, and maybe you've noticed it too? Authenticity on YouTube is rising again. Now, instead of clicking on overly sensational videos, I find myself clicking on videos that are simple, more intimate, and honestly more human. But why? Is the MrBeast-ification of YouTube over? How did we get here? Why is this happening? And what the heck is "corecore"?
Here are the chapters for this video. Feel free to jump around accordingly:
0:00 Introduction
1:23 Authenticity vs Sensationalism
2:45 MrBeast-ification And AI
4:22 Creator Example 1
5:39 The Eras of YouTube
6:24 What Is CoreCore and Why Its Taking Over
7:55 Creator Example 2 Dodford
8:38 Creator Example 3 Sam Sulek
9:01 The Next Era Of YouTube

Creators note:
Hello, my name is Zackary Smigel. I've been creating YouTube videos since I was a kid. I started YouTube full-time about five years ago. You might have seen me from Real Estate License Wizard, where I obtained 60,000 subscribers and over 5 million channel views. I have since left that channel for creative pursuits, and this is my first crack at starting something new. I'd appreciate a like and subscribe if this content interests you and I captured your attention for even just a few moments.
On a secondary note, I am playing around with my thumbnail style. We'll see if you guys like my face or not lol. I am hoping you all enjoy, this is a bit more of a controversial topic and I was a bit hesitant to make this video so we'll see! Hopefully you guys enjoy.
Thanks so much for watching,
Zackary Smigel
