MODERATORS
Vacuum up the internet, provide generative "AI" for people to spew tons of garbage on to the internet. Everyone hates AI, and advertisers don't want ads showing against AI slop. AI can't accurately detect AI and kills real content providers that advertisers want to show ads for.
Brilliant. What will they come up with next?
is Youtube/Google speed running their death?
We need decentralized video platforms that have revenue sharing.
that's what happens when your AI slop detector is AI slop
Nah thats correct kurzgesagt is slop
İt feels like humans have no rights to speak or dislike or express any opinion online only fake numbers matters and the best part is ai slop is feeding from ai slop to make more ai slop ı wonder when this nonsense comes to end
The goddamn banchode running the biz, and greenlit this garbage moderation. Fuck AI.
I'm sure the bill gates money will protect them lol
Use AI channel blocker, but I guess most of you people use phones or tablets so you're fucked either way
Yeah, it’s bad.
Non-watermarked slop is going to be impossible to detect going forward, and the false detections are going to get worse.
The fundamental issue is the monetization scheme. It’s just too lucrative for spammers. YouTube’s economics are broken, and getting worse.
…Hence, no matter what YouTube says, YouTube is going to double down on “detectors,” because Alphabet leadership couldn’t care less about destroying longstanding creators. Their only objective is to suppress just enough spam to keep ad buyers unconcerned next quarter, no matter the long term damage; that’s someone else’s problem.

Using AI to detect AI has, time and time again, proven to be a broken idea. Here is Google with a genius idea: use AI to detect AI, to prevent AI videos.
Keep in mind folks, this is a global top-three company in terms of revenue.
