    This is what AI says about this video:

    The video is about the dangers of using USB-C extension cords. The narrator explains that USB-C extension cords are not officially certified by the USB Implementers Forum, which means that they are not guaranteed to be safe or reliable. He also explains that USB-C extension cords can be dangerous because they can overload the power supply of the device that they are connected to. This can cause the device to overheat and even catch fire. The narrator recommends that people avoid using USB-C extension cords altogether. Here are some of the specific dangers of using USB-C extension cords:

    • They can overload the power supply of the device that they are connected to.
    • They can cause the device to overheat and even catch fire.
    • They can degrade the performance of the device.
    • They can be unreliable.

    The narrator also explains that some USB-C extension cords have a label that says “USB 2.0 low speed devices can only work with one side of the ultra high rate extension cables interface.” This means that the USB 2.0 connection is only available on one side of the cable. This can be a problem if you need to connect a USB 2.0 device to the cable.

    The narrator recommends that people avoid using USB-C extension cords altogether. If you must use one, he recommends that you use a high-quality cable from a reputable manufacturer. You should also make sure that the cable is rated for the power requirements of the device that you are connecting to it. Overall, this video is a helpful resource for anyone who is considering using a USB-C extension cord. It provides important information about the dangers of using these cables and how to avoid them.

          I asked the AI if it was wrong or you were wrong. It said you were wrong.

          Who am I to believe?

          I’m sick of stuff that should be ~2 paragraphs of text being a video. I do not want to watch a person or hear a narrator, I interpret written information much more effectively, and being text I can retain significant portions of the document as necessary.

            You know, you don’t have to watch it. You can find the information elsewhere in text format. But I guess we all need to conform to your preferences.

              It’s nice that you’re so ready to delegate to my natural authority, but unnecessary.
