YouTube pays creators for making them sufficient ad revenue. It depends on number of subscribers and views and such things. It is not like YouTube goes around looking for great content and asks people whether YouTube can pay them to make videos for their platform. But aside from that, some creators manage to get funded by people, who simply like their content. This is a more natural way of creating value. I would rather like to see creators being crowdfunded, than artificially pushed creations for the sake of ad revenue. Currently creators are often afraid of getting videos demonetized, for saying anything critical.
