I'm not so sure people are buying into AI videos. I watch a lot of YouTube shorts in the evenings and immediately downvote and scroll past the AI crap. I don't mind a still here and there to illustrate a point, but the whole video? I'm not half the AI hater most y'all are, but seeing those videos makes me flinch internally. And they always have that fake voice that's the modern equivalent of the transatlantic accent. Fuck me I hate that voice.
But that's just my opinion, right? Funny thing, those videos have really, really low upvotes. I haven't noted a single one that get any traction at all. YouTube may be flooded with AI, but people don't seem to be liking it. OTOH, from the sound of it, that crap is about all my little kids watch. ๐คท๐ป
I think that most people care enough that media is not entirely made up of AI. Even in the churn of cesspits like tiktok and instagram, where the fools circlejerk to hell, AI is generally not regarded well.
I think people still want people behind the wheel. I speaking out of my ass, but I think that we crave human interaction even when they are parasocial relationships.
