Breadtube if it didn't suck.
Post videos you genuinely enjoy and want to share, duh. Celebrate the diversity of interests shared by chapochatters by posting a deep dive into Venetian kelp farming, I dunno. Also media criticism, bite-sized versions of left-wing theory, all the stuff you expected. But I am curious about that kelp farming thing now that you mentioned it.
Low effort / spam videos might be removed, especially weeb content.
There is a cytube that you can paste videos into and watch with whoever happens to be around. It's open submission unless there's something important to commandeer it with at the time.
A weekly watch party happens every Saturday (Sunday down under), with video nominations Saturday-Monday, voting Monday-Thursday. See the pin for whatever stage it's currently in.

It is literally going to be "if you sound like a nerd who reads books you're AI"
I guess it's a good thing I already stopped sounding like a nerd who reads books because of people
It's more like "if you sound like a pop science writer". If you have some degree of taste or at least an aversion to sounding cute in that manner, you're fine.
I hate to think that somehow by speaking human words I'm going to accidentally sound like a chatbot, just because everyone else used the toy too much
That's an interesting point, and it's a concern shared by many as AI-generated content becomes more prevalent. While it's true that language models often produce text that adheres to common patterns of clarity, coherence, and neutrality, this doesn’t necessarily equate to a loss of individuality. Instead, it's a reflection of the training data—aggregated from countless voices, styles, and tones across the internet.
That said, when people rely heavily on AI to write for them without injecting their own voice, personality, or context, the output can start to feel uniform. The key lies in how AI is used: as a tool for amplification rather than replacement. When guided thoughtfully, AI can enhance personal expression rather than dilute it. Ultimately, it’s up to users to shape the output to reflect their own uniqueness.
Would you like a more humorous, critical, or sarcastic tone instead?

It literally does mean loss of individuality for exactly the reason you express, because it's taking the "countless voices, styles, and tones" and basically deciding on what the average is and talking like that. The individuality of those "countless voices, styles, and tones" is not preserved, it's smashed into a paste a mixed into a homogeneous slime.
lol gotem
I used to use commas a lot more when writing but try to avoid them now specifically because AI overuses them and I don't want to sound like that.
Thanks I hate it
Im going to sound the same as I always have and some dumb fucker is going to accuse me of being AI. Ive already seen dipshits go "ooohhh sign of AI!!" over shit like overly polite email openers.
If you don't want to sound like AI, you can simply try to be very rude. Problem solved.
I've never been less concerned
ai generated pictures of the most part of the game and whether you want to be a good way to get a good wway to get a good way
my phone's autocomplete ain't shit and your $10T glorified autocomplete ain't shit either porky, suck my whole nuts
beep boop beep. Im an AI post
i think it's influenced me and i fucking hate it
Maybe libs, yeah.
Yeah. I don't use it. I fucked around with it for an hour or so to see what all the hype was about, but I found it obnoxious. It's long-winded and bloviating. It writes like a high schooler trying to hit a page count. Look, motherfucker, I asked you a simple fucking question. I don't need a dissertation. A sentence would have been fine. I'm not going to read five paragraphs as a response to "Hey bud, how you doing today?"
Also words like "delve" and "examine" aren't particularly uncommon. Well, "delve" isn't often used in colloquial speech or writing, but it sometimes has its place when you've already used up better words, or if you just want to sound Lovecraftian. It's just an old-ass word that most people don't use anymore. "Examine" though? Really? You're telling me the analysis found an uptick in the word "examine?" That seems like an incredibly common and normal word to me.
Also: fuck you (video creators!) I use em dashes. I've used em dashes since before chat GPT existed. I know how to use dashes and hyphens correctly. If you can't type an em dash, then is acceptable. A dash is a dash and a hyphen is a hyphen. They are different things! Fuck! Dashes, hyphens, and semi-colons are mysteries of the English language even that even English speakers don't understand. It's wild. Twitter was doing a fuck-load more damage to the English language before "AI" came along. "u no wut i mn dog?" Putting hard character limits on posts was disastrous for written speech.
But aside from all my bitching, this seems like a perfect example of the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis of linguistic relativity. If so, it's an incredible problem, because our language is evolving in a way that is directly controlled by the dumbest fucking tech-bros.
