I've had that feeling from Youtube vids posted at Hexbear. I started going into the comments first to see what people had to say. I don't watch that many Youtube vids via Hexbear but in just the last few days I ended up at 3 vids with AI narration. It's very disappointing. I expect more from this site. The most recent vid was trivia about a very silly 1970s comedy movie called "The Big Bus". The voice even had the wonky "p" sound that results from people not quite mic'ing themselves correctly.
After about 4 minutes I had had enough. The narration was like milk that seemed okay but left a spoiled aftertaste. And as time goes on and AI starts to make more and more of stuff we'll end up questioning everything. How many facts are fake? How much text is fake? How many of the images are fake? Of course right now on the fly AI can't generate fake 1970s-like movie footage. I knew "The Big Bus" footage was real. But years from now AI surely be able to make up all sorts of seemingly real nonsense after the "creator" types a bit and pushes some buttons.
AI could make up something seemingly real like the "The Huge Plane" an entirely fake 1970s comedy with fake details like "starring Burt Reynolds" and then show Reynolds in some scenes.
