The video tutorial explains the derivative of e^x and its neat properties. It then explores the derivative of the inverse function, specifically the natural log of x, using implicit differentiation and the chain rule. The process involves solving for the derivative of y with respect to x and simplifying the result to 1/x, highlighting the elegance of this mathematical result.
