Yes there are quite a few algos and YT already uses many of them but it only takes one person to find a workaround then publish it and it again opens the floodgates. All the different mechanisms that youtube has used is an interesting rabbithole but its ultimately an unwinnable cat and mouse game unless you have an algo that understands the actual content. Even the human reporting has become weaponized. Don't like the message of a video? have a bunch of youtube accounts flag it and it gets demonetized.
