When you play either of these videos itβs just a AI voice talking over someone just clicking around. The scripts are also so similar.
The internet is dying.

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

YouTube is like Imgur, it's a media dump. Most of it is trash. If you're going directly to YouTube.com or from any place other than community link recommendations or to your known curated channels; then it is no surprise that you come across shit 90% of the time.
The fact that their search function fails to find relevant guides or tutorials is a real loss, but they've opted to enshittify.
An advertisement company built off the work of a search engine can't get search right on arguably their biggest app. Baffling.
They're search has been shit for a long time. It has helped other search engines though. My brothers resisted leaving Google because they found the search quality was best. Now it's shit enough for them to consider that DDG does just as good a job.
Allowing their search and video platform to get flooded by AI is insane, but they're fully committed because they're chasing their own AI agenda so they can't really stand against AI. Amazon has done the same by allowing their platform to be flooded with cheap, useless, generic products and fake reviews. The real baffling thing is why people still keep using (and even worshipping) these asshole companies.
You have a misunderstanding of what "get search right" means. For Google's profits, the search is exactly the way they want it to be. They don't give a shit whether it's actually useful to you or not.
