Youtube is full of video. We know that. But so much of it is generated AI pollution.
AI video is identifiable because it usually is generic and made from AI photograph image compilations with a perfect voice over (never makes any mistakes except sometimes …. will — — pause — awkwardly). The main flag is that it is never original.
It is recycled, reconstituted crap. It has no value to you and yet is agressively habit forming as it reinforces your internal bias.
This aspect of social media with why we got Brexit (Cambridge Analytica) and Trump (both elections were won using social media manipulation).
Try to watch YouTube with real people talking about interesting things.
I have been a fan of these and so far they are not AI!
