I find Patrick Boyle to be a consistently interesting voice for current events. Here, the conversation centers on journalism.

    Could be a money maker for them. Let the AI slop through, make some money off it for a bit, ban the creator for a violation then delete the video. Far more space efficient than having to deal with real channels that have hundreds of GBs of legacy videos you need to keep around forever and fans who actually care about said creator and legacy. I’m fully expecting the jump where they start producing the slop themselves instead of having to share a percentage with the creators.

    It’s not morally good of course. That slop is cancer.

      Yup it is, and in pure moronic big tech, it’s only a short term money maker. Eroding trust in the platform bit by bit, more and more people are growing annoyed by it, and all the social media doing it.
