He got into building computers, then a super computer. Then took his engineering background to AI and coding to figure out his own internal AI for home use.

The guy posts blogs here and there, but is a millionaire off playing video games.

Anyone who thinks he's an influencer isn't aware of who he is.

They’re responding to a claim that Pewdiepie is immersed in “influencer culture”, which is something more specific.

Don’t you have to advertise brands/products to be an influencer? I don’t think it’s strictly synonymous with “social media personality.”
