YouTube should be held liable for what it is pushing. It literally can kill and seriously harm people.

I think that any of these algorithmic feeds, by any company, should be held as if the companies have vetted the content and it is theirs. And the culpability that goes with that.

It's not "as if" it "is". There is a scant difference between an LLM and a recommendation algorithm picking what to "say" out of what, 100 billion or more messages? Because the pool to choose from is so enormous, speech becomes not what one person typed but what one algorithm plucked out of the haystack to show, to influence, and to manipulate for financial gain.
The president of the United States of America pushed a horse de-wormer as a preventative during a world-wide pandemic
Good luck getting him, his administration, or his Department of Justice, to hold YouTube to a higher standard.
That’s dishonest. Ivermectin is widely prescribed to people too. That’s like calling Ibuprofen a horse anti-inflammatory drug. That doesn’t mean it was an effective covid treatment though. The information from the third world that made it appear like it was seems to have been that it was treating preexisting parasites in covid patients, eliminating a comorbidity and thereby improving covid survival rates. But undiagnosed parasites are rare in the US, so that wouldn’t have worked here.
Well, let’s post a deepfake about some left strawman and watch him find the time pronto.
Ivermectin has scientific evidence behind it. But I can't say that without accruing downvotes, I suppose
Scientific evidence as a topical treatment for skin conditions!

It would help your argument, if you actually pointed to that evidence, rather than just claiming it.
youtube also has kitboga, pirogi, deeveeaar, etc which are very helpful. i introduced my mother, who has early dementia and can't do much, so watches a lot of netflix and youtube, to kitboga and she loved it and found other scambaiters. i'm stoked. i know she will tell a scammer to f off now.
Kitboga guy is a saint! Very entertaining, every now and then.
this seems like credit bureaus charging us to protect our data they keep losing.
