It is somehow comforting that the AI boom has all the hallmarks of every tech-bro endeavour ever which means it will crash and burn in a year or two.

Vtubers do things. They talk to the audience, play games, draw, cook and a bunch of other things. A lot of it is para-social which explains why some people donate a lot. This is a generic livestream of a street.
