YouTubers are scamming you with AI content, don’t believe them. 

Have you noticed AI channels popping up in other niches- let me know below, I'm keen to do a follow up vid! Also, if you like my content please subscribe... I promise I'm human 🙆

What's funny is that likely, AI bots have seen this video of yours and have spammed it with 0 to 1 second watch time to buuuuury the video down on recommendations. Most of my videos and shorts barely even get recommended. After 1 hour they immediatly flatline, something which has never happened in the past 12 years. I will sometimes have a Short release and in one hour it gets over 1k views and then INSTANTLY it flatlines almost to 0 views per hour. These are AI bots attacking channel in such a way that it burries the videos around them that have a chance to go viral. We are going in a weird direction, and unless RU-vid specifically deletes channels that produce AI content (or at least the ones that are entirely automated that go nowhere), there won't be a stop to it. They should ban AI channels in their ToS.

I'm not sure why your channel popped up on my home page, but I'm glad it did. Very interesting video. I've noticed a lot of these science-based AI channels as well, and it was neat to hear your thoughts on them. Looking forward to future content from ya.

Lets not forget that the vast pools of data for pre-training were built off of peoples hard work without the consent credit or compensation. If these people had to pay for the data the spam would not be happening.

Personally, buying AI art feels dissengenous in a sense. When I'm buying a product, I'd rather talk to another human being, same with the media I consume. I understand that it is a personal bias of mine, but the thing about taking a product to market is that you donhave to take almost everyone's personal bias in the target demographic you are trying to sell to

Ngl kinda sad that they get so popular by just auto generating this crap with AI. Kudos to you voicing over, editing adding captions, not wavering your voice during recording, scripting, researching and everything unlike those people behind those AI channels.

I came accross your article after repeatedly hitting AI YT videos on the 5 best, or 7 best Remote Desktop software. I wanted to look at multiple videos for a range of opinions, just to realise the 1st and 2nd video in the RU-vid search results were produced by the same channel, same stock footage, different AI voice and different order of top picks. This triggered me because I needed some suggestions before pulling the trigger on which one to use, but these AI videos feel so disingenuous. We are not in a good place in the current internet era people... I'm scared.

We have to stop social media manipulation.

Thought this was a big channel I was caught off guard when I realized it wasn't, love it already

I have a few of my friends doing the editing for these science cash cow channels and most of time everything is done by a human, albeit very poorly done. I've commented on Kyle's video about this as Future Unity is one of those channels that my friends do videos for. Basically the system is quick and fast content with very clickbait-y thumbnails that is either fake, generated, or manipulated to look enticing. Heck, they even make thumbnails out of porn stars or borderline naked women for more clicks. One person or group basically has a huge capital to outsource everything from the script, voicing and editing to freelancers that are really cheap in huge amounts. A good example of these are editors that are in a third-world country that would have dirt cheap rates. The thing they won't cheap on are voice actors. If you ever heard any of this cash cow channel vidoes it's always some person that has either as American or British accent to make the video seem really legit as huge amount of people associate western voices to be more "professional" or truthful in a sense. You can see they post like every few hours or so because of this sweatshop like structure to built to pump crap content on this platform that favors quantity over quality.

I think people don't want to watch that stuff or read those articles that really don't contain anything of substance. The main problem is that they flood an area and, for a while, can drown out the good-quality stuff-like your channel.

It's very sad, 😡😡😡

agreeded very vaild point

You spent the second half of the video undermining your message. AI will not make you $300 a day from ART sales, but if I have 8-9 channels with 200k+ subs that are pumping garbage into RU-vid's ecosystem...there's a real chance I'm making bank in that scenario. I agree that it's garbage and shouldn't happen. And I think the platform needs some form of detection to start countering them. But if the question is not "is it ethical" but "can you make money this way," it looks like you can.

I thought I was the only one thinking you cant make any money with AI. I have tried to get result with AI but never managed to get any result better or faster. I use it is a search engine now, for which it works reasonably well but to me it is not more than that. I also don't see any big progress from here anytime soon.
