Abstraction, or why your model of the world is wrong (and that's probably fine)

a presentation on the agent model, why an agent uses and improves upon it's model of the world and why models in general though being inaccurate still prove useful also my first time filming and editing a video

There are a lot of very interesting concepts in here, but it's not clear to me how they come together. I think you would benefit a lot from presenting an outline up front, so the audience knows where you're going, then coming back to that outline to reinforce each point. Also, the Monty Hall problem is an interesting topic, but if you tell the audience the answer is counter-intuitive without explaining why, you'll lose them. It also never gets mentioned again, so it's not clear how it relates to the agent model. Maybe talk about where the model goes wrong in our intuitive analysis?

The video is a bit too slow, maybe it would be better to remove some explanations (such as 5:26-5:43). It also lacks a conclusion sentence at the very end. The video was however very clear.
