Why it works
The 0:03–0:32 announcement montage gives the host's skepticism a recognizable target, then a central question sets up an evidence test. Sequential labels on chip diagrams at 0:50–1:56 and a GPU analogy at 3:43–4:27 make abstract silicon tradeoffs visible; local replay peaks sit at 0:56–1:05 and 4:11–4:20. The measured six minutes contain 32 shots but 86 total picture changes, allowing long diagram holds to keep revealing information.
