AI Content Farms: The Illusion of Internet Fame 

Yea I'll think About it

Raycon is 🔥

Say It with me people: being a parent isn't just keeping your kids alive

I Mainly Just Chill Out Most Of The Time. While Also Thinking About The Next Video I Can Make.

Aren't NFTs confirmed dead?

@@jordanloux3883 Nope, they're still being peddled. Krapopolis or however its spelt is FOX's attempt at an NFT cartoon.

They're the same person

Web 3.0 is truly just a big scam anyway

​@@jordanloux3883not quite, but they're not alive either Let's say they're not even in death bed, they're in the iron lung

man what the fuck?????

i ran into a "professional" writer batting for AI by saying he relied on chatgpt for descriptive writing and basically using it as a second brain for his imagination

This gave me a headache.

Do AI bros know how much fucking art there is? If your favourite show is taking a while to release new episodes, you can watch other shows from the last 100 years. Shows by humans with passion and love for what they do

Doesn't this mf responded to an artist who actually works as an animator for One piece? 😭

Honestly though, at least Amy Schumer is actually human, is kinda doing stuff, and is so widely hated that she isn’t really doing harm

unpopular opinion but the hate on her is completely undeserved. nobody watches enough of her material to be able to say whether she’s funny or not

​@@ratrat9241I don't think she ever noticing you 😢

@@muffy_bunny i don’t care if she “noticing” me. i’m not a fan.

Considering AI is founded on unoriginality/plagiarism, I'd say it's more accurate to compare these "entrepeneurs" to Carlos Mencia.

wassup lonelygoomba!!

LONELYGOOMBA?!

Holy cow...

Pun of the year

How about a 2 adults PRETENDING to have a kid? Essentially an AI kid.

and then wonder why their kid doesn't want to spend time with them

Part of the issue though is that these issues are a lot deeper than just irresponsible family. even if the parents want to stop this, we are well past the days where one parent can always be around to actually take care of the kids. For most families nowadays, one income cannot support a family. It’s simply not possible to always monitor your kids anymore and daycare isn’t something a lot of people can afford. On top of that, suburbanization has actually isolated us way more than ever and they can’t even go outside anymore. The problem is that we need a complete overhaul of a lot of the way the world works. But the political will just doesn’t exist.

​@@jacksonwilliams5399facts

It is a normal thing, just not a _good_ thing

​@@Lisespieces68 nah I feel like any kid who's raised that way wouldnt be able to realize how lazy their parents are, thatd be a completely different problem

NATHANIEL BANDY!!!

First to reply

Youre the only RU-vidr I know that just, like, comments on RU-vid videos like any other person does. Nice to see ya!

aint you nathaniel b AHAHA I SAID IT BEFORE ANYONE ELSE COULD

​@@Elijah_Randallokay? Want an award or something?

This

Also to not give them Ipads at age f*king 1. wait until they're at least 10 or 11, expose them to more normal activities, like Drawing, playing outside, ect. It's a way better method of parenting than the "Ipad Parents."

@@Fatih_M177 I'd say more 5-7 since I don't want a kid feeling left out cuz friends who use tech but those early development years being 0-3 should not be tech infested.

@@Pupupwa nah, it's too stupid to think that way. 5-7 year olds aren't developed enough, so they SHOULDN'T have phones, even if other kids have. I mean, you could replace 5-7 year olds with teens, and replace phones with drugs. Just cause every other teen is doing drugs for example, doesn't mean mine should too (I'm not saying Phones are as bad as drugs, I'm just saying that just because everyone does something doesn't mean it's necessarily good or correct)

Imagine in 10 years: the parents have a kid, put it at the care of a robot and ditch the child with it. This isn't "taking care of your children", it's wnsiring that trust is dead.

Terminator is going to be a real life documentary.

@@MisterDriskul2029 Isn’t even that far from today tbh

It's ironic that even though Mr krabs nowadays would probably jump at the opportunity today to automate the krusty krab, the Mr krabs from the old seasons would've never given up squidward and spongebob for ai to come in and run everything (even season 4 Mr Krabs was apposed to that when he sells the krusty krab)

​@@PunishedKrab 5 years ago was 2019 so you're very right about that, which is scary to think about

@@MisterDriskulDear god them AIbros need to watch Terminator and stop AI from becoming like Terminator, shit’s getting scary

oh boy cant wait to let my life at the hands of a FUCKING robot

@@pokuu7 AI is shit but that sounds kinda sick. I'd love to make a robot friend for life.

You should absolutely be concerned about jobs being replaced. Under a capitalist system, only the wealthy will benefit from automation because they can afford it and they will use it to replace humans. They’ve already done it with AI, firing writers

Which is actually happening. You can hardly find channels about space, history and even true crime without doubting its veracity or if there's actually a person behind it. I subscribed to a guy who makes good content about history and he always says at the beginning and end of his videos "I'm not AI, please subscribe and support my content" Because his voice is so calm that people often accused him of using AI and his channel is not too old. ):

or worse: the disinformation. Post 2021 i can't google an authentic photo of a medieval armor from specific country without being given an ai generated garbage.

I still remember the whole Willy's Chocolate Factory fiasco in Scotland.

My biggest fear is honestly the insane potential for AI propaganda. Think about it. Any aspiring dictator could just shit on the keyboard and immediately print 69420 different propaganda posters telling you that left-handedness is evil or whatever.

For a lot of them, it almost seems like the disrespect is the point. A common thread I’ve experienced in a lot of conversation with AI bros is gleeful contempt for actual artists. I have no idea why, and trying to psychoanalyze feels icky, but it’s definitely prevalent enough to be notable.

SAME (Also fellow artist and Ed Edd n' Eddy fan)

​@@theonegoldengryphonHonestly I don't understand what it's like to live like that. Like enjoying a movie, show, game, etc but disliking the person who made it is fairly normal, but hating every actual artist...idk I just don't understand how someone can live with that mindset

Even as a CS student(and also someone who is dreaming of being a game dev)these ai content farms still scare me, like imagine trying to put all your effort and soul into coding a program, when an A.I. can do it all at once for just a few minutes.

@@theonegoldengryphoncould go on for hours but a lot of stems from internal personal issues. Before they were ai bros, they were nft bro’s and before that, techbros and eons before that? Snake oil salesman Remember the monorail guy from the simpsons? Old Gil? Lionel hutz? That’s them. Like you ever notice how so much of the user base are either shut in kinda inept and unwell men or rich folk? We could go on for days but with how Wild West ai is; even people who have 0 knowledge in art can see the obvious oversights it stouts. And when you separate the result from the work it takes to get there; all you have is the fleeting instantaneous dopamine boosts So you got a userbase of mostly casual mfs who will get bored of the stuff and move on some day cause It won’t fill the whole inside. And on the other, you got rich asshats that don’t know the first thing about creating anything or even running a business. When the pool is that narrow, I honestly disagree with mark and doubt it’ll last long. Some version of AI will exist forever; but when you’re collapsing this soon out the gate, it ain’t gonna be this. And yeah, while the art worlds taken a hit the rise and protesting for better rights and utter collapse due to inflation, poor infrastructure and treatment of their workers to the point where even DISNEY is struggling If the capitalist machine keeps pumping as it’s designed to, it’s all gonna crash. We’re pretty much seeing at a rapid pace before our eyes. On the art front, we could draw with mud if we want, can’t put a price tag on that. But if the system keeps pushing like this it will be bad for everyone but an upside will be that these fuckwits made it basically impossible for guys like them to ever rise to power again Ate it’s own tail and raised the bar so high, even discarding your humanity ain’t enough for the rich to reach the unrealistic highs anymore.

That's basically America

If the video that was from was AI generated, maybe there’s some deep rooted issue within the machine that has yet to fully reveal itself.

the AI is traumatized@@the3ddinosaur87

This is the 4th time I've seen a comment like that

Bros downfall is crazy💀

Matpat end

I have a dejavu

This is just the slightly less annoying version of "first"

I'm a data scientist and I agree with you 100%

And also Ai kind of just recycles content so even if all the artists are replaced Ai would start to stagnate as no new original content is created to feed ai

I'm a physician and I agree with you 200%

Great take 👏

Well, until the singularity happens.

I've honestly considered cutting out all technology and living in a rural settlement of some kind in the future

It's just sludge, remember that. Even with the implementation of AI doing the heavy lifting, the content itself is still unenjoyable. Unless it gets astonishingly good, it'll be relegated to "needs to fill this empty space" inconsequential clip art. An example of this is that guy who replaced himself talking with an AI version at 3:06. To what purpose was it necessary? He introduced AI as a middleman in this when he could've simply talked into the camera himself. This reinforces the idea that AI will only be a tool in making more sludge. Quantity over quality gobshite which was already being made before AI came on the scene. To just say my point, don't let it keep you down so much. It's just TV static. You can ignore it same as you have the other trash that came before.

@@consolekitten Same here

@@raultrashlord4404 It *is* improving though. If corporations are now using AI to make media for them so that they don't have to hire artists, among other ways to profit from AI, people are losing their jobs, no? This is scary for artists, especially. It's nice that there are a lot of people who will still want their art made by human hands, but...

​@raultrashlord4404 the fact that AI output is usually labeled "content" speaks volumes, I think. Sludge, indeed.

RU-vid shorts is just alt right pipeline 2.0 sometimes

This quote genuinely scares me

There needs to be limits with Ai! Ai is a tool and only a tool, something that we have to use as a reference or a guide on certain things. Ai shouldn't be able to take away people's jobs and leave them struggling in their life. The fact that some of us humans are truly that lazy to let some robots do stuff for us in our everyday lives is upsetting and scary. As human beings, we must stop the advancement of Ai and not have it go any further. Where it is now is plenty good enough.

@@tswwarrior8089I’m 12 and I want to be an artist…I’m not sure that’s even possible anymore

​@@Duckus3211 there will still be people out there who will appreciate art done by real humans if ai ever makes it big enough to the point it actually starts replacing artist's jobs, don't lose hope besides, there's other career choices, you can always just choose a different one that's to your liking if real art ends up being too niche of a market

@@SurmenianSoldier thanks. That makes me feel better

do you happen to know a good tutorial on doing the magic ring because i am struggling

@@ratrat9241 A super simple way to get you started is to ch 3, slip stitch into first chain, 6 or what ever you need sc in the around the ring by inserting your hook through the center hole. Its not the actual mr but its good to use as a beginner.

​@@ratrat9241 I haven't seen these words for so ling, but I think I still remember the hack to make the first knot with a simple loop around the finger.

Yeah, Ads on RU-vid are another gigantic problem that apparently we can't do anything about. I seriously cannot navigate the internet without an ad blocker, something I've been doing for over a decade.

@@victornoel36Sadly, RU-vid barley allows us to skip ads, and a majority of us don’t even have RU-vid Premium unless we spend our money on it instead of paying our college money.

I got a Spanish pampers ad. 😭

@@victornoel36how long till RU-vid starts doing 3 ads instead of 2?

And rarely RU-vid can't moderate the AI content.

It's not possible to do so if you use Google Search. I remember a time where 100% of the web was content made by human. Now more than half of the content is auto-generated and copy/pasted content dump that makes little sense outside of ranking high in search results.

That is true if we’re talking Google search but I’m talking as far as RU-vid@@DJ_POOP_IT_OUT_FEAT_LIL_WiiWii

I also have dodged all content farms. :)

Me too

Content farms were the reason why I hate AI’s development “process”…

VeggieTales can shut the fuck up. They're promoting a 2000 year old goat molester's fairy tale. No way is this better than AI shit.

Unfortunately, for a lot of people "what makes them happy" will be a get-rich-quick scheme.

@@alexpotts6520 Well, We'll see how long there happiness will last then.

As an individual artist with grand Visions and wants maximum control over the art they make, I'm fully willing to learn proper storytelling, draw objects and people in different art styles, and make different types of music.

Yep. After a decade I'm finally getting commissions on my art, mainly DAZ 3D model pics that I heavily modify and scratch model the heads/accessories for, and I'm thankful to get paid anything, and looking to get back into drawing and clay. I just thought the Internet would encourage more creative tools for humans to be creative on their own, instead of whatever the heck is happening nowadays... My usage of AI imaging (not calling it art), which I hardly even use, would end at brainstorming designs and quick laughs.

I mean yeah, with good reason, cause for a time didn’t it basically cause a 2nd wave of the Blue Whale Game? You were 14 at the time so I’d assume he wouldn’t tell you not to just because he thought it’d scar you.

Yeah me too

That thing terrifies me i wish it wasn’t in the thumbnail

@@GaplekBehemoth that’s kinda real. Although a few years back I was so terrified of the image that I entirely refused to look at it at all. It’s still really uncanny and disturbing for me to look at now, but ngl the image traumatized me a bit when it was first really popular. (I was around 10 at that time).

@@Snoebal EXACTLY! It’s so unsettling to look at. I first saw it in 2019 and I think about “it” every night since then. It’s that terrifying to me

Except it's even worse worse than that, it's more like a *fool's* gold rush - one day there will come a breaking point where the market collectively realises how worthless all this dross is, and the empire will collapse.

@@alexpotts6520 but the guy that sold shovels still won

reminds me of one of Dan Olson's videos. Like, it does make sense, shovel selling is a good way to make money, and you can easily scam by saying "I really use these shovels as shovels to make money."

@@alexpotts6520If there's a tulip rush, sell trowels.

Reminds me of the crypto/NFT gold rush craze.

Though all the AI stuff is largely unaware of more... niche... markets. Thankfully.

@@demo2823I think the point isn’t that writing a book is bad but criticizing people who are only doing something to get famous

No, no, you got it all wrong. We need bots to watch AI generated ads so people can have a separate place where they can interact with each other.

I disagree with your point. We shouldn't need to rely solely on indies to get good or innovative entertainment. Either way, AAA will always be mainstream, so the general audience will look towards that more

Dunno if that’s necessarily true cuz of Digital Circus

All of the "creators" mentioned in this video are "indies", in the sense that they are self-employed individuals rather than huge companies.

@@suzanneclark7706I would say digital circus was actually proof considering its an indie that exploded in popularity without ai

My concern with that is that the government will 100% abuse it, the only way to deal with it is to ensure no one has it

Oh, yeah, AI is gonna stunt these people's minds even more than regular social media and algorithms already have.

The onset of laziness crafted by AI is rapid and doesn't even require them being raised that way. It took only 3 months for the kids I'm tutoring to become incapable of (or stubborn against) writing anything without chatGPT.

That's.... actually a pretty good point. I agree.

W w w w w take this massive W

B-b-b-b-b but this is socialism! (joking) No but honestly, I wouldn't bat an eye if AI wasn't being used for scams and we all had an universal wage (or just didn't need to pay rent, that would change literally everything), everyone would be able to do what they want without the pressure of asking themselves if they will be able to live until next month

The solutions to most of our problems are policy based. Edit: typos.

Not the solution. Then everyone will take the images from AI Shutterstock and even photography will suffer.

​@@demo2823true but it means anyone could use their AI generated crap to push any message they want. imagine if Disney generated their newest movie in AI, anyone could use those characters and images however they want. put them on t-shirts, parodies, spread agendas...and Disney couldn't do a thing

Imagine what Nickelodeon make their series with AI

Or the more horrible option: vulnerable people probably living through a horrible time in there life who need some semblance of hope for the future.

important thing to remember about scammers: dumb people are not the only people who scammers are able to rob. plenty of smart, but vulnerable people have been successfully targeted by scammers. not necessarily scams of this nature, but of course this isn't the only kind of scam out there

Smart people will fall for scams to their desperate enough because that's another group that scammers target desperate people

​@@futrey9353 Maybe AI regulation could work?

Exactly. Karma will win in the end. Or, at least, that's what I pray will happen someday. But the fact that videos like these exist, and that so many people are fighting against it, justifies it more than just a fantasy.

there’s a reason why AI is called *artificial* intelligence

It's good enough for scammers, despots and our modern day robber barons, CEOs.

I can see some of the engineers regretting making those programs & deciding to make something else to cope with their depression over AI.

Yeah me too
