      It’s funny to imagine a baby articulating their own philosophical dilemmas with such clarity and intellectual rigor when it’s precisely their developing brains that prevent them from reaching the answer.

      Or maybe it’s that, because babies are babies, we typically think of them as beyond the reach of the modern condition of shitposting and AI slop, so it’s subversive to suppose a baby that is part of that same discourse as the rest of us.

      There’s also some inherent social commentary about clickbait; how emotional expressions trigger more curiosity in an adult viewer than any intellectually stimulating content.
