“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.
I don’t mind when someone uses AI to make those little cartoon drawings in the corner to show like frustrated faces and emotions or whatever, as long as the video and sound are legit. For example call me Kevin, gameranx or be amazed. Using AI to enhance a video with a doodle is fine to me but I don’t want the sound and/or video to have any AI at all.
