Show HN: I make a human-edited, AI-assisted retro magazine reviewing YouTube

CTRL+WATCH is a human-edited, AI-assisted retro magazine that reviews YouTube channels. Issue #017, 'The Machine Issue,' focuses on the wave of AI-generated content and asks who checks its quality and what the magazine owes its readers when reviewing such content. Features include channel ratings (out of 100, no mercy), creator head-to-head battles ('Boss Fight'), and fictional interviews with legends who never saw YouTube ('Time Capsule').
