"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.

Recommend me a good [Firefox] extension to crowdsource and block AI slop channels on YouTube (ani.social)

AI slop channels are flooding YouTube to the point that I am filled with dread clicking video thumbnails fearing it would be slop, a time waster.

Then I thought: This is 2026, surely there are extensions that blocks these slop channels from a crowdsourced list, just like SponsorBlock!

I went to Firefox's extension site and searched for "slop" and there are results, but there doesn't seem to be critical mass of users on any of them.

I looked at one with the most users, and the permissions and data requirements are pretty fishy.

IDK if there's one that are more trustworthy and more well-known, that perhaps named differently. If so, a recommendation is much appreciated. Thanks.

My way of enjoying Youtube is by only watching Youtubers I subscribed to. Random video watching has always yielded a very low S/N ratio, even before AI, because 99% of Youtube is shit and so is the algorithm that pushes it into your eyeballs.

Yep. I got the control panel for youtube extension and just turned off basically everything. No recommended videos, no homepage, just my subscriptions. I've saved so much time avoiding rabbit holes and sanity from not having slop pushed on me
