Hasan Minhaj: 我认为将创作者定义为'内容创作者'是一种贬义，它暗示着创作者为了迎合算法而创作，而不是出于真正的创造性表达。真正的创作者，无论是画家、作家还是音乐家，都是为了表达自我。科技视频创作者也应该被视为艺术家，他们通过讲述科技产品的故事来进行艺术表达。喜剧创作是一门需要智力和创造力的艺术，一个好的笑话能以新颖的角度展现世界，就像篮球运动员的精彩表现一样，需要技巧和创造力。当代艺术家们正在突破艺术形式的界限，创作出融合多种元素的作品，这值得我们赞赏。YouTube等平台降低了创作门槛，但创作者需要找到独特的方式才能脱颖而出。优秀的影视作品始于优秀的剧本，其他元素只是锦上添花。喜剧作为一种艺术形式，也应该追求更丰富的表达方式，而不只是简单的讲笑话。 Marques Brownlee: 我同意Hasan的观点，科技视频创作者也应该被视为艺术家，他们通过讲述科技产品的故事来进行艺术表达。在YouTube上创作视频的门槛降低了，但创作者需要找到独特的方式才能脱颖而出。我努力避免迎合算法，而是专注于创作高质量的视频，讲述科技产品背后的故事。优秀的科技视频需要有深度，有故事性，而不是简单的产品评测。保持客观公正能提升频道的长期影响力，即使这意味着会失去一些点击量。社交媒体降低了创作门槛，让更多人有机会成为艺术家，这是积极的方面。但同时，我们也要警惕算法操纵和商业利益对创作的干扰。
