Cass Sapir proposes adding interactivity to videos to improve user experience. Interactive features like chapters, calls to action, and engagement quizzes can increase engagement rates. Interactivity allows videos to work like other web elements and embrace video-first learning by turning videos into dialogues. Examples show interactivity driving conversion actions, collecting user data, and generating behavioral insights.
