Who is Ian Cuttress, and why should I watch a 1 hour video on the subject? Does this bring any new facts or perspectives to the table, besides what we already know
He was formerly at Anandtech, I think.
And that means he has interesting things to say?
Well, he knows tech media, and he's generally regarded as a competent tech journalist 🤷♂️
His deep dives on new chips used the be the highlight of my month when he was writing for them. I haven't seen anything approaching the level of thoroughness he displays anywhere else. He also has either his master's or a PhD in electrical engineering, so he may know a thing or two.
Edit: it's a PhD.
