Hogne, who created the video, says he recognises that there are historical inaccuracies in his videos and that's because "AI can make a lot of errors but in the future the tools will get better".

"I try and spot them where I can but I am not a history expert so I don't always see the error, especially when it's something small," he adds.

Asked about the lack of transparency in source material, Hogne says in the future he might consider adding links to where he got his information from.

"It would be cool to make it totally accurate using the right sources, but it's just me on my own making these videos and it takes eight hours to make each one."

Oh wow, eight whole hours. What an ordeal!
