All my Youtube feeds are filling up with AI videos made within the past month or two. It’s just an endless stream of newly created content made by people who are just chasing after just a little bit of attention. It’s all just rehashed crap, remade videos scraped from previous videos, remixed and remade again and again.

It wasn’t so noticeable a year ago but now it’s getting worse. It’s just an endless stream of new AI videos and there is more and more every day.

A year ago, it was decently made AI video with a bit of realistic content … now it’s just all made up crap of all sorts filled with all kinds of made up information to sound as authentic as possible. It’s so easy to just scrape together a bunch of content, send it all through an AI and make it sound like some sort of authentic documentary that would fool the least attentive viewer.

    The YT algorithm these days will suggest content based on what other people that you share warching patterns with. So you can avoid ai videos lile the plague you will stil get them recommended.

      Yeah I mean to a point but you’re not going to get your entire feed filled with this shit unless you’re specifically clicking on those types of videos quite a bit. I watch quite a bit of YouTube especially late at night when I’m sitting there playing games right before I go to bed and I’ve seen my algorithm change multiple times as far as what it suggests. There’s two or three channels that are pretty well known AI slop that I get recommended on a decent amount because some of the stuff is okay and some of the stuff just has a good thumbnail and a title so I’ll click on it. But the more I watch other shows the more of that stuff gets recommended overall.
