"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Countless AI slop channels are relentlessly copying our work. So one day we decided: enough is enough. We went undercover to investigate who’s behind them and what this flood of AI slop means for the future of educational content on YouTube.

I think you're missing a few things that are different about AI than just bad content, which has always been and will always be with us.

First, there's just so damn much of it.

Second, it can quickly steal a topic or a theme. So you might have a video that starts to break out and it will immediately be mined and copied by 50 other channels, all of which, because they put out a video a day, have more followers than you. And third, just AI existing is poisoning the well. Even if you are talking into a camera while juggling, people might suspect your script is AI....
