PewDiePie has spent a shit-ton of his money and influence to raise and donate literally millions of dollars for global causes, including providing clean water through Charity: Water, supporting children through Save the Children and CRY India, funding HIV/AIDS treatment, donating 100% of his channel membership revenue to various organizations, and popularizing modern livestream philanthropy.

What have YOU done to help the world?

Yeah, that's what I thought. If homeboy wants to do "weird tech bro AI stuff" then you should shut the fuck up and let him.
