Watch what your kids are watching, it is most likely ai dog shit. It messes with their minds.
Well so are my friends in their mid 20s to early 30s.
The amount of people I see who are the “iPad kids” they constantly scream about is incredibly high
Keep an eye on your screen time folks.
Get out there and touch grass, the world is waiting!
Been seeing these weird AI hairstyling videos that are such obvious bullshit and I just wonder “Why? WHYYYYYYY?”
Idk, I think Weird Al would be alright at styling hair. He’s got them curls.
The ones that annoy me are “this is the 2027 Canyonero!” and it’s obviously an AI generated car. At this point I have a couple channels I can rely on and block or ignore the rest.
There is a car rental company that has been pushing legitimately awful AI ads on YouTube. Congrats, I probably wasn’t going to rent a car from you. But now I will specifically avoid your company if I ever need to rent a car.
i have ublock origin on, so i never see any ads.
I’m using various front ends for YouTube on different devices. Are there any that filter out AI like they do ads?
Oooh I would love it if that was like a SponsorBlock category or something.
Slopblock
… at least that’s what it should be called if it exists
EDIT: It does exist !
Wow.
It’s that low?
Genuinely surprised by that.
It’s probably because the ai slop gets disproportionately promoted to the top, and once you accidentally watch one, that’s it, the algorithm decides that’s what you like now
What are they classifying as ai slop? Cause in YouTube there is a lot of low effort content that aren’t slop, and there is also low effort content narrated by ai that I’d consider slop, and then there is actual ai slop
Everything produced using any amount of generative AI is slop, without exception. Hope this clears up the confusion.
Of those 500 videos, 294 were classified as AI slop, a term Kapwing defines as videos with obvious AI-generated visuals or low-quality compilations using clearly AI-generated scripts and voiceovers. The 59 per cent rate is roughly three times the proportion found on YouTube in the same study, making TikTok’s default experience dramatically worse for anyone opening the app for the first time.
I looked up the article the og source referenced, which does say what they defined as ai slop.
The original article isn’t helpful because statistics don’t mean anything if they don’t also define what they’re measuring, and they cut the definition short.
most of the shorts are slop.
