Let us tell you that clickbait thumbnails are video titles and covers that provide information about the content of that video before playing it. Often, in order to get the maximum number of views for the created video, a title bait thumbnail is used that is completely different from the original video. According to the YouTube blog, more action may be taken against videos with title-bait thumbnails, especially those related to breaking news or current events.
YouTube has also provided examples of title bait thumbnails to illustrate what types of videos will be penalized in the future.
