It would be nice if platforms required "AI generated" or "Partially AI generated" in a disclaimer. It's a shame youtube remove the dislike button. It would help viewers avoid garbage.

I switched from Spotify to Deezer yesterday, because they are doing that now
YouTube does require that, but I don’t think its presented to the viewers.
It’s also pretty hard to police I’d imagine, but they have taken steps.
I just know this from when u tried to automate YouTube shorts myself, i eventually gave up, you have to do a lot of manual shit on YouTube, but these guys have free time it seems. I’d have to assume east asia
I keep trying to hide all those and they keep popping up.
They can literally create them faster than it takes for you to select the hide option. And the amount is exponentially increasing. Within a very short timespan humans won't have enough time to block out AI content, because it will be 99,999999999% of everything being presented.
I can't wait to see what happens when new LLMs get trained on the AI slop from previous generations of LLMs
I like to listen to long history videos to fall asleep. But it's getting harder and harder to find something which isn't AI slop. It's fucking annoying. And then these videos also get a lot of views..
Let’s start a list of good free of AI history channels:
- Told in Stone
- History for Granite
- History Time
- Fall of Civilisations
- Time Team Classics
- Dan Davis Histories
Fall of Civilizations is excellent.
I've enjoyed Dan Carlin's Hardcore History, the episodes are long, well referenced and he's happy to admit others know more than him.
I like this list better:
hire a fucking narrator
„scary interesting“ has some historical crime/accident documentations, and an explicit no AI disclaimer
We are in for a serious problem when kids grow up after learning the AI version of history.
It's worse than that . They'll learn to disbelieve everything equally, including actual facts. This is how you get flat earthers
Normally I prefer narrated videos with an unseen host but AI has corrupted that space and made actual hosts on camera. And even that isn't a hundred percent reliable.
We’ll return to “Dinosaurs and the Civil War” after these messages.
"General Marquis de Rawrfyette, contrary to popular histories, achieved victory at Yorktown by simply eating the british commanders"
He was also the first to use glue to hold down the cheese on his pizza
I kinda want to make a joke one that explains insane versions of history as if they're entirely legitimate.
Wait,... they're already doing that.
And even the ones that are not AI-voiced are sometimes written by ChatGPT, and the human narrator just reads the slop aloud -.-
