The 10M+ AI / tech video: details
The main comps behind the page, with links. Pulled November 1, 2026.
Method
- YouTube Data API: the latest 400 uploads of 33 creator and tech channels (38 handles tried: Preston, Hacksmith and hafugo did not resolve, and drewdoes and ZHC returned no videos, so they are not among the 33) (MrBeast, Mark Rober, Dude Perfect, Ryan Trahan, Nick DiGiovanni, Airrack, Michelle Khare, Yes Theory, Sidemen, Mrwhosetheboss, MKBHD, Veritasium, Kurzgesagt and others). Year ratio = views divided by the median of that channel's long-form videos from the same year.
- 34 concept searches through YouTube's own search sorted by views (the API search quota ran out after 2 searches). Robot- and AI-titled ratio tables: data/topic_ratios.json.
- Your channel numbers are a fresh pull of your latest 110 uploads on November 1 (round2/hafu_fresh/); ratios use each year's long-form median (2025: 6.36M, 2026: 4.16M; 2026 includes recent uploads still growing). Your own videos show views only in this table.
- Mediastorm: Chinese captions translated; Bilibili numbers from Bilibili's public API.
- Sponsors: video descriptions ("sponsored by", partner tags), Tubefilter and SponsorRadar listings. No robot maker paid deal was found for 2025-26; that is an absence in what was checked, not proof none exists.
