I still want to be able to block channels. A setting to filter out channels that are AI or just filter videos they use AI would be great but even then why can't I block channels?

You sort of can, on the desktop site when watching a video on the right hand side there are a bunch of recommendations. Next to each recommendation is three dots. Click on the dots, then you should get a dropdown with the option to never recommend that channel again. I do this fairly liberally and mostly don't get AI vids recommended anymore

It's still a problem when searching though.

Click the 3-dots on a thumbnail and click "Don't recommend channel."

Or use PeerTube.

I don't get that. It's available on shorts only. On videos I get "Not Interested".

Edit: It is available for me but only on some videos, and it's hit or miss on mobile. In the browser (like another person said) it does work, so I suppose that's something.

I guess "Don't recommend channel" is only available on the Recommendations thumbnails along the side when a video is playing.
