100% it's for training AI, and it's easier to do that with stable video so they're financially incentivizing you to do it.

The anthropsychologist answer: your speaking cadence is enhanced by a shaky camera, keeping visual parity with the frantic vocal pacing. AKA: the vibes are vibing

same thing happened to me lmao -- if you look at my earlier videos im always in a forest/on my porch bc i thought it conveyed more authenticity (and maybe it did) but i got a tripod bc i need to pay my bills

Okay the moment you stabilize the camera it felt weird and I hated it so maybe it’s confirmation bias but yeah hold the phone in my opinion

I wonder if that's why people who are trying to come across as authentic include the part where they set down their phone? So the video is stable but you ALSO know it's just them recording on their phone? 🤔

I would bet camera stability makes it easier for them to scan your content and thus they know what to do with it
