    Youtube is google No 1 source of machine learning content. Fuckloads of video, audio and subtitle data they can use to feed and train their systems. Youtube itself doesnt need to make profit, thats just a bonus for them.

      YouTube advertising is more than 10% of Google services total profits.

      That’s not a bonus, that’s a dependant revenue stream.
