Is AI Killing Real History? This was a great video and I feel they nail exactly the problems and opportunities of AI in history videos. Ive noticed my views are massively down recently, despite walking the ground and showing the real battlefields.
Perhaps your feed is flooded with garbage AI history videos? I think AI is great in many ways - Ive been experimenting with the images which are getting really good, but I would never use them to write and fact check scripts - it makes blatant mistakes. Have you noticed a lot of rubbish around recently?

Are you a fan of the Richard Sharpe books and Tv series with Sean Bean? Let me know in the comments which was your favourite episode. For me it was Sharpe's Eagle...I wanted to learn more so visited the battlefield where the book and film were set and walked the ground exploring the real story.

🚨 New video is live!
We’re back on the battlefields of the Peninsular War—this time at Vimeiro in Portugal.
On 21 August 1808, a young Arthur Wellesley took on Napoleon’s finest at the Battle of Vimeiro…The French were feared across Europe, could those pesky redcoats best them? Find out. . .
Come with us as we walk the ground, unpack the tactics, and explain why this overlooked scrap mattered so much.
🫡 Let me know what you think in the comments—and don’t forget to like and share if you enjoy it!
