Lex Fridman

Lex Fridman's format is almost defiantly old-fashioned for YouTube: three to five hours, one guest, minimal editing, long silences left in. What makes it work is access — the people building the models and companies that define this AI moment sit down and actually talk, at length, in a way a five-minute clip never captures. It's not a tutorial channel and doesn't pretend to be one. It's the closest thing tech YouTube has to an oral history being recorded in real time.
