Trying to find a particular factor of a polynomial with specific requirements

Ok so I’m trying to prove a result about sicherman dice and I’ve run into a snag

Suppose you have Monic Palindromic polynomial P(x), I would like to find Q(x) such that Q(1) = 1 and Q(x)|P(x) and P(x)/Q(x) has no negative coefficients.

So far I’ve just assumed that Q(x) is of the form 1-x+x^2-x^3+…+x^2n for all natural numbers n but I’ve found some counter examples, I also know it’s probably one cyclotomic polynomial in particular for a given P(x) but I fear it will grow my search space to drastically and if I tried to search through all that it would be too much.

This video showed up in my feed. I don’t think it’s AI generated but it seems heavily AI assisted

https://youtu.be/PbDzPmFLUCg?is=30o8Z68ZN9_iivrN

Ok I’ll start with my most obvious piece of evidence, there are em dashes in the description of the video and it’s a somewhat formatted description. I think there’s a chance the voice over is also AI but I’m not at all convinced, I think it’s just weird how constant his inflection and mood are through out the video. The thing that clued me into the video maybe being AI assisted is how inconsistently they portray certain things:

If you go to the section about the whale they depict the ropes on her is strangely inconsistent ways, and they do a similar but more egregious thing with the trap holding down the wolf in the next section.

However they also depict things far too consistently for it to be fully AI generated so I’m thinking they either get the AI to generate assets which they edit together or get the AI to generate assets they trace and then edit together which is what the art style remains mostly consistent.

It’s also entirely possible I’m reading far too much into this so I’d appreciate y’all’s opinion on this.

Edit: I am now also convinced the comments are botted. Several mentions crows where as far as I can tell they only appear in the first 3 seconds of the video.
