“Good news for individual creators. But a HUGE red flag to larger creator studios, podcast networks, kids media companies, localization operations and anyone that runs multiple channels from a single production stack. All the things that media companies do to publish at scale, including shared templates, synced upload schedules and a common infrastructure also make them look like a coordinated slop factory.”

Given the huge amount of AI slop I still get in my Youtube feed, I don’t think YT is going far enough, quick enough.

An observation? Some people seem fine with AI content. I’ve come across countless videos that are obviously (to me) ChatGPT scripts voiced by AI. Reading their comments, many people don’t seem to be able to tell, or don’t care.

THE SLOP PURGE HAS ARRIVED Somewhere at Google, a machine is deleting entire media companies before lunch. Google just revealed how it works.

    Good news for individual creators.

    That’s good news for me. Individual creators and small studios are where the good stuff is at. The videos full of originality and different takes.

    But a HUGE red flag to larger creator studios, podcast networks, kids media companies, localization operations and anyone that runs multiple channels from a single production stack.

    Doesn’t really matter if it’s AI generated or not, if it looks like it might be because it’s “dime-a-dozen I’ve seen it hundred times before,” just get rid of it.

      Yeah, even before AI content farms were a thing and churning out the worst quality garbage to get outrage and ad revenue. Hire a bunch of people to write sensationalist videos at a massive rate, and pump out several a day. Now they use chatgpt to do the writing and some ai voiceover and images to save cost there.

      Good riddance if any of these are destroyed.

        Honestly, even news podcasts do this. The meidas network is exhausting making a huge deal out of everything. As if THIS is the thing that’ll bring trump down. But they post 3+ videos a day of rage bait and even I’m like dude, calm down, this is a nothingburger.
