# External YouTube Video Discovery

This page is generated by `scripts/discover_external_event_videos.py`. It searches YouTube beyond the official AI Engineer channel and scores candidates against the official World's Fair schedule. High-confidence rows are still **secondary sources only** until a human verifies the recording against the official schedule and source video.

## Latest Run
- Checked at: `2026-07-09T19:59:44.344481+00:00`
- Queries: 7
- Unique videos reviewed: 21
- High-confidence secondary-source candidates: 2
- Medium-confidence review candidates: 3
- Low-confidence event-context videos: 16

## Matching Rules
- Require event markers such as AI Engineer World's Fair, AIE World's Fair, WF2026, or equivalent metadata.
- Score against official schedule title tokens, exact title phrases, speaker names, and speaker company names.
- Penalize official AI Engineer channel results because those are primary/official-channel inputs handled by the normal pipeline.
- Penalize recap/vlog/event-footage language for talk matching; those may remain useful context but should not be treated as talk recordings.
- Mark high confidence only when the video is external, event-marked, non-recap-like, and strongly matches an official talk through title/speaker/company evidence.
