People got upset in a thread where I said almost all ads, and a large portion of new movies, are ai slop. Its definitely true for any short videos (especially of animals) that you see (note the possum being scared video).

I give the internet and media about 3 years until every single thing is sloppy lazy ai trash.

I immediately block any YouTube account that mentions sleep/rest in the name at this point. There are hundreds of those fake history ones that are straight up hallucinations of things that never happened.

Wait you can block YT channels!?

Click "do not recommended videos from this channel". You can only do it from the main scroll, it won't allow it when scrolling while watching a video.

I watch a couple gun channels and a Navy seal vet that roasts fake Navy seals and get recommended all this right wing bullshit. I have to clean house every time I watch one of their videos. It's fucking annoying

That button has never worked for me...

[–] ZDL@lazysoci.al 4 points 2 weeks ago

It's never failed for me.

There's also, however, if you're using a Firefox-descended browser, the BlockTube add-on for stronger killing of channels.

Damn. I wouldn't like that.

The way " the algorithm " pumps all that BS at people is diabolical

That sounds like the right thing to do. It's strange, because I've also noticed that all these AI algorithm videos are related to sleep, history, and storytelling. I'm not entirely sure why that is. But it sure makes it easier to identify the slop.

I think it’s because it’s a category that’s usually on autoplay while people aren’t paying attention or are, as named, sleeping, so it’s easier to go unnoticed.
