“Your kid may already be…” is a pretty standard fear mongering start, right?
Yes, although it’s true, and most likely: certainly.
“AI”-generated…
Get ready for another round of those weird murder spider man and Elsa videos for kids on YouTube, this time created by our robot overlords!
I just want a complete director’s cut edition of Harry squatter movie’s… is that too much!?
Every day the number of AI generated content in YouTube just gets more and more. It’s just people who figured out how to use the latest AI services, mashing it together with AI generated scripts, mashed together with AI generated voices and pumped out continuously every day. Some are good but most are just regurgitated content that sound great but don’t offer good information or outright just give you misinformation or just random nonsense.
It’s freaky because the number of these types of videos just keep increasing every day.
It’s the same as fiver generated scripts, and the same as every other technology. We learn how to deal with it… or maybe we stop watching so much youtube, or look for authentic channels…
Honestly Youtube in general becomes a sesspool of fads… until those fads wear off.
If there was only a way for users to let other users know whether the content is of low quality…
I mean ultimately the biggest problem isn’t even voting or anything. It’s that Youtube doesn’t care about giving you “quality” it cares about keeping you on the platform so it can keep feeding you ads. At the end of the day, as long as you keep watching Youtube is happy.
This is similar to the reason I stopped reading Quora posts because they’re some of the most awful pieces of freelance writing that has nothing to do with “information transferring” and everything to do with “keeping you reading”. Feels like such a weird site.
But ultimately the trick is you have to break the cycle of watching or staying on Youtube when you get bad content… at that point then Youtube has to change so you keep coming back to watch quality recommendations instead of just “what’s popular”
Personally I mostly only will click on people I’m already subscribed to, because so much is just about “Watch time”, and like I said above, I only really value “information transfer”.
Yea no shit It’s also a significant chunk of regular youtube now too
Yeah but when am I going to be able to watch AI-Generated Videos on Pornhub. (That I get to choose the content of).
Honestly I’m so over hearing about AI. It’s either “Look at this average thing that AI has done (after giving X amount of attempts we won’t tell you about).” or “Look at this average thing that AI has done (after giving X amount of attempts we won’t tell you about) Isn’t it scary?”
OH AI is wrong? Oh AI is doing something better than humans? Oh people might use AI versus doing nothing? Oh AI might replace cheap labor (fiver jobs)… AI will kill you, AI will heal you, AI has transcended humanity… AI has doomed us all.
It’s all fucking clickbait at this point and I’m just already so fucking tired of hearing about it because none of it has value.
But umm… that Pornhub video thing… let me know when that comes out.
Lol. This post is a quality romp. Thanks.
A good AI beats a bad youtuber. And there are plenty of the latter around.
Have you found any of the former?
Your boomer parents as well, most likely. It is getting back into election season again.
My whole family keep reposting these weird pics of Jesus in mud saving flight attendants with the captions “amen”.
It’s all over the place.
That’d be pretty wild since I don’t have a kid yet.
Your kid is also AI-generated, in that case.
Fuck. Now I have to AI generate child support payments 😩
…that you know of.
Assuming they’re male 😳
Not true. It happened in this documentary https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lfxwzPddXWc
Have an AI kid with your AI girlfriend so you can chip in on AI family issues.
This has been a thing for years.
