I find he exhbits the same characteristics of things that drove people like red letter media in the early aughts to be "successful". Make something so long and tedious that the idea of arguring with its own points would require something twice as long, and as such the ability to instead just motion to an uncontested 40 minute longread is then used as a surrogate for any actual arguement. Said diffferently, it's easy for AI skeptics to share this as some way of proving backing up their own point. It's 40 minutes long, how could it be wrong!
