Recent YouTube policy changes regarding "inauthentic content" have been widely misinterpreted, with no evidence that AI content is specifically being targeted for demonetization.

• YouTube has rebranded "repetitious content" policy as "inauthentic content" with minimal actual changes
• Title and thumbnail A/B testing capabilities are expanding to allow testing of up to three variations
• Understanding viewer psychology is more valuable than focusing on technical metrics
• When considering channel pivots, examine analytics to see where most views and subscribers come from
• Apply the 70/30 rule: 70% established content formats, 30% experimental content
• Success comes from predicting what humans will watch next, not understanding algorithms
• Think like a viewer by analyzing why you skip certain videos from channels you're subscribed to
