The moment I realize a video is AI written (it’s pretty easy to tell once you notice the way they tend to go) I blacklist the channel.

In the start of the video they confirm they also use AI… So… Yeah…

Coco melon, tablet generation, COVID interrupted, influencer culture, AI highschool… …and I still feel like this generation will turn out fine. This generation seems highly socially connected. They can find out pretty much anything they want, and there are hobbies galore. Each generation shits on the previous generation, and eats up media claiming they’re a broken generation… But things don’t have to be that way.

I haven’t logged in or watched any recommendations for almost two years now. The only time I see a video is when I actively search for it. Man, have I been out of the loop.

Losing Varitasium has sucked. It was gradual and I wanted to give the new videos a fair shake but that shit has gotten so artless.

Weren’t Fern and Veritasium bought by private equity?

Just to be clear, Kurzgesagt is not using AI, but being copied by AI slop.

There are still good education and scientific channels in YT, but they are currently a minority between a ton of BS, conspiranoic influences and AI crap. Even the AI algorrithm blocked music channels from own authors and artists, due “copyright issues”. YT is dying with this and more and more people go to Odysee to monetize their vids, without these crap and problems.

What it means for me is I find a Youtuber I like and cling to them for dear life. It also means if I really do want to learn something, I’ll find a better source than youtube–like a podcast specializing in that subject area, or even, dare I say, a book.

The Death of Educational is really the big picture that you’re witnessing. Having worked in education, this isn’t just AI. Even Auto-Correct and spelling correction really dumbed kids down. Reading levels are… So you switch to videos and now you get slop videos. So incorrect and potentially dangerous videos are the next bane. At this point students should have classes on how to identify AI slop.
