In this episode, I look at the new wave of AI "creators" that are cannibalizing attention and resources away from real creators. It's time to do something but no one seems to care.

Checks out, I guess.

YouTube randomly redirected me to this video as I had auto-play turned on somehow.

When the author started asking Gemini whether video X was AI-generated, I was expecting a bunch of hallucinated nonsense.

It was actually quite interesting to see Gemini was able to embed the suspicious video well enough to discern AI artefacts. I wonder what kind of cost this would represent if they priced this by the token.

On the core topic of the video, I think we might see a fracture of the Internet where the masses will be just fine playing slop AI content that does not differentiate a seabass from a bass guitar, and a tiny portion of people will somehow get into a fortified "humans-only" content bubble... I have no idea how that would manifest though, as the incentive is for the slop creators to prevent and pollute the existence of such a platform.
