I'd still like to see a written overview so I could refer to it as needed.

Here's what Carl talked about

• Good sims can help out other sims, reducing the duration of negative moodlets.
  
• Good and Cheerful sims will react with annoyance at mean interactions. Cheerful also reacts to gloomy, Good reacts to negativity.
  
• Mean sims love watching other sims fail.
  
• Sims clean autonomously if they haven't cleaned in a while. Doesn't matter if everything is clean or dirty, they just want to clean.
  
• Jealous sims can "talk it out," venting about their romantic troubles.
  
• Perfectionist increases the chances of painting a masterpiece.
  
• Gloomy sims will sniffle, even when they're not sad.
  
• Cheerful sims can "Look on the bright side" for negative moodlets.
  
• When Cheerful sims are happy, all of their negative moodlets decay faster.
  
• Hot-Headed triggers more often.
  
• Goofballs pull pranks autonomously.
  
• Clumsy sims might break things like dishes, while washing them. A good level in Handiness will help them break things less often, but it'll still happen.
  
• Sims with the Hates Children trait will be more visibly annoyed with twerps. They'll still autonomously react and bicker without being blocked by the emotion system.
  
• Geniuses can solve hard problems to gain Logic, and will get more Eureka moments in the Scientist career.
  
• Slobs might heckle others for cleaning.
  

Would also like to add to this since it wasn't in the video but apparently(can't confirm cause haven't played it):

• Noncommittal sims won't accept proposals unless their romance and friendship bars are full or close to it. Not really sure if this is new or always been that way. They also get uncomfortable when someone professes undying love to them and you'll have a harder time getting them to try for baby.
  

This is cool! I think it wasn't in the game... before i've been able to marry noncommittal sims just with half bar, both in friendship and romance.
