The video tutorial discusses a random variable X, defined as the midpoint of a randomly selected interval from six disjoint intervals with known lengths. It explains why X is a discrete random variable, not continuous, due to the finite number of possible values (midpoints). The tutorial also covers the concept of countable versus uncountable sets, emphasizing that even with infinitely many intervals, X remains discrete if the intervals are countable.
