Friendly suggestion: Substitute video's clickbait title with something more informative like "Variable pricing using AI algorithms are increasing grocery prices."
I can't believe anyone would think that clickbait is something people want. There is no purpose to it here - no affiliate monetary gain, no cash for clicks - just a Youtube video. Note that my quarrel is with the video uploader, not OP
Clickbait is probably not something that people want, but their prevalence seem to indicate that they work, unfortunately.
It is exactly what people want. You are overestimating the lowest common denominator.
