I honestly think it's designed for infants and toddlers who watch the same videos hundreds of times.
Almost every child I've seen in the past 5 years has had YouTube in their hands.
I would expect all their data points to the idea they should suggest the same video over and over again.
I've also noticed the infants of my friends don't know how and have no interest in skipping the ads.
So long as Google can continue to plausibly claim it's women in their 30s-40s watching the nursery rhyme video (because that's who's logged in), they can continue to rake in the more expensive advertising associated with that demographic.

That stops working when the advertisers realize they aren’t making any sales from those ads.
- jakeogh 7y agoTrue, but ads dont just sell products, they also sell ways of thinking by frame.
- shotashotashota 7y agoYou also have to think about the people who use Youtube to listen to musics. I assume music tastes don't differ that much. But honestly, the moment they decide to make arbitrary decisions about what videos should be played next they are going to make some miscalculations. Some times they just made worst calculations than average.
- pharke 7y ago> I assume music tastes don't differ that much. I wouldn't make that assumption. Personally, I have a wide range of musical genres that I listen to and those tastes change over time, even month to month depending on how I'm feeling. I've met enough people that say similar things to think this isn't uncommon.
