Seeing as how Hank Green has now admitted he's been using ChatGPT to do research for his scripts, which carries over into the finished product, and Claude for working on an upcoming book, it does make me wonder about that disastrous SciShow episode about knitting, which was so bad it got removed from their channel.
Factual errors, weird tonal stuff, just a mess overall. Makes me suspicious.

@Nezchan@wandering.shop I don't really follow his content. For scientific content I rely more on Veritasium and Joe Scott who both appear to have got a good team for the research. But when I stumble across his content, I will now keep in mind to be sceptical.

@Nezchan@wandering.shop Do you know if someone took a backup somewhere? I'm curious. I tried searching but only got commentary videos.
