It's pretty sad, creepy and hopeless, but this is exactly how I have been feeling lately with YouTube videos. If it's made post GPT, I am not inclined to watch it unless it's a channel I know has a stated anti-AI position, because at least then I know I'm getting human input. They are building up Plato's cave around us stone by stone, we can't even move out of the way, we are getting imprisoned, and the few of us who see it happening and shout are being drowned out by the noise of the billions around us who happily hum along.
The system itself needs to come down, with violence, or we won't make it, none of us, and honestly even if it does, I am not sure we are going to survive. I feel like I'm playing the fiddle on the Titanic.
Since a lot of channels have started stating they use no AI, I have unsubscribed from quite a few that don't explicitly say so.
