Thumbnails this rancid should be punishable with jail time. That's just some AI generated nonsense. This is even worse than using screenshots and renders from a modern title in a long-running franchise to talk about 20+ year old games

Edit: I'm pretty sure this entire channel is AI generated, with scripts scraped from existing videos and articles. They also have sponsors on their videos. Cooool

Souless Elevenlabs AI just reading a ChatGPT generated text. How the fuck this got 672k views? WTF.

Because it looks passably enough like DidYouKnowGaming and similar channels that already use this kind of format

This is like beyond lazyness, if you want to use AI voice, fine, it's not uncommon for people in Japan or LatAm to make videos using TTS (loquendo or whatever), but this person didn't even bother to write their own script. Besides that, Elevenlabs ai have the option to make the voice sound a lot more natural, but the video creator didn't even bother with that, they just generated something using chat gpt and pressed play.

The point behind AI slop like this is simply to be a cheat code to passive income for the creator(s) via ad money, they don't give a fuck about the quality of the work or how many legitimate creators they rip off in the process

Waow ps2 graphics so good...

[–] doublepepperoni@hexbear.net 6 points 1 day ago

I mean, they really are which is why they should've actually put some in the dang thumbnail angery

[–] jjjalljs@ttrpg.network 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Why are you even on the platform with that slop?

[–] doublepepperoni@hexbear.net 5 points 1 day ago (2 children)

You're right, I'll simply to go a competing video platf... oh

[–] Orcocracy@hexbear.net 4 points 1 day ago

The best alternative to YouTube is the DVD/bluray collection at your nearest big central public library. Just cut out the slop and click bait from your life entirely.

[–] jjjalljs@ttrpg.network 3 points 1 day ago

I just don't watch videos. (Now I ride off on my high horse)

[–] Bishop_Owl@hexbear.net 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Does the video at least refer to armored core or something? Otherwise the thumbnail is beyond useless.

Also, if you have the option (Android or desktop) check out DeArrow

No. I think that was supposed to be Xenosaga or something like that.
