    On Youtube, there are a multitude of new “hosts” like C.S. Lewis (a dead author), sitting at a desk and spewing almost legible gibberish (in an AI voice resembling their own) vaguely referring to their favorite topic. Also psychologists, historians, and more. I’ve started to look more and more for videos over three years old if I want a decent history program.

    Some are hours long. More and more, every day.

    What are they classifying as ai slop? Cause in YouTube there is a lot of low effort content that aren’t slop, and there is also low effort content narrated by ai that I’d consider slop, and then there is actual ai slop

      Everything produced using any amount of generative AI is slop, without exception. Hope this clears up the confusion.

    Is that of newly uploaded content or overall? Because the latter is terrifying considering YouTube is 20+ years of content.

    I used to get a lot of the same AI panic-buy these items now for the coming economic collapse vids. 47 different channels saying “when the shelves are empty these are the 9 items nobody thinks to get” and it’s the same AI images of some dipshit in fatigues

    Yup. This is, in part, why I leave some of my mistakes in my videos. That’s the easiest way to prove to people that my content isn’t AI without arguing about it.

    The average person in 20 years is going to be so mentally cooked.

    Been seeing these weird AI hairstyling videos that are such obvious bullshit and I just wonder “Why? WHYYYYYYY?”

    The ones that annoy me are “this is the 2027 Canyonero!” and it’s obviously an AI generated car. At this point I have a couple channels I can rely on and block or ignore the rest.

      There is a car rental company that has been pushing legitimately awful AI ads on YouTube. Congrats, I probably wasn’t going to rent a car from you. But now I will specifically avoid your company if I ever need to rent a car.
