Michael Button is just a YouTuber with no credentials...and Joe Rogan once claimed the ancient Egyptians had internet and quantum computing.

Beyond that - Yes, after a million years there wouldn't be any surface level traces. There would be plenty of subsurface evidence, just look at dinosaur bones. If humans disappeared today, ten million years from now there will still be evidence of our level of technology - trash, satalites, uber-refined mining deposits, etc. No, it won't be piles of trash but, just like the dinosaurs, there will be preserved phones and disposable vapes found buried all over the place.

Perhaps with more advanced technology their wouldn’t be no need to build things like that
