We ran a pretty short version of the conversation in the show, so here's the extended one in which we covered a lot more ground.
matched
I started off our conversation by asking him about this video he posted last week.
matched
Yeah, say more about that trust because the classic content creator response would be like I make videos and I build an audience and in return I get to monetize that audience.

Have you ever been approached by a political campaign?

offering you money in return for your endorsement?

the email was,

And then you bring in the incentives because talking into a camera all day seems really glamorous.

Hank Green, OG YouTuber, he's known for making science explainer videos, among many other things.

A few weeks ago, viewers began speculating that he might be using AI chatbots to like, I don't know, draft a script for a video.
matched

matched
He's since put out a clear AI policy in the description of his personal vlog channel.
matched
What did you take away from this incredible uproar around a creator who has a reputation for being like a really high integrity guy on social media?
matched
Yeah, it's really interesting to me because you'd think we're like far enough along in the attention economy, creator economy, that there would be some rules, some shared traditions and code of ethics.
