Here's the latest AI slop creator ripping off my content.
-
The video is offline because I sent them a copyright takedown, but here's a segment of it. Just vapid, useless slop.
YouTube is becoming flooded with this garbage and it's actively making the platform less viable for real creators to make real content.
@notjustbikes Often it feels like a never ending battle, but extensions like https://aisloplist.com/
atleast make an attempt to hide the slop videos while browsing youtube.(i'm one of the reviewers of slop submissions through that extension)

@notjustbikes Totally agree. Youtube is becoming more and more "enshitificated" lately with all this AI rubbish.
No surprises here. The same is happening with many other platforms and services across the internet.
Internet was something amazing just 12 or 15 years ago. It's astonishing how quickly it has evolved into this pigsty thanks to big techs and their greed, their AI and their algorithms.
Fortunately, there's places like the Fedivers or Nebula that provide a much healthier experience.

Here's the latest AI slop creator ripping off my content.
This time they ran my script through an AI "podcast" generator (likely the free one by Adobe) and put it under the footage from my latest video.
When I make my videos, I spend hours travelling and filming on-location to get real footage that can't be found anywhere else.
Then these AI slop creators steal it and release it as their own.
About 90% of my exposure to "AI" these days is just slop farms ripping me off.
@notjustbikes So demoralizing!

I hear they've had to build a new circle in Hell just to accommodate these people.

@notjustbikes This is both sad and infuriating.
I'm glad I can support my favourite creators (like yourself) on Nebula but this is far from a satisfying answer.
Without creators making interesing videos, youtube is just an empty box.
They really need to step up if it wants to protect its legacy and its future -

Someone just discovered that trams exist?I'm sorry that you have been robbed of your intellectual property. It may seem like an unfair battle, but we can't just go past and let such situations become the norm. Fingers crossed for your success!

@thibaultmol
Thanks for the tip. Looks great!
IMHO it should be in Youtubes own interest to block pure AI slop. If the platform becomes known to be flooded with slop, people will inevitably turn away and that means less revenue for them.

The internet as we know it is well buggered. -

@jo @notjustbikes all the challenges are real but slow down with that sentiment. if i cut&pasted second half of your comment from now to 15 years ago and replaced "AI" with "social media" it would look equally true and equally outraging... we overcame that challenge and we will overcome this one.

Ever the wealthy not content and seeking more regardless of impact on the lives of the public.

Yes absolutely I've had that same problem here

@grepe @jo @notjustbikes social media was, mostly, a mistake.

@notjustbikes Don't forget to mention the alternative for watching your videos:
https://nebula.tv/notjustbikes
Alternatives for youtube exist and are often far superior. Nebula is a lot cheaper than youtube and completely free of ads, shorts, algorithmic feeds, user tracking and dark patterns. No bullshit, just content and direct support for your favourite creator.

@notjustbikes I had a YT channel, made like 30 videos, was starting to get some traction. One of those Top Ten list channels stole my footage, ripped out the audio and put their own garbage over top. Filed a copyright infringement with YT. Provided all the things they asked for, links, timestamps, etc. Repeatedly. Got 0 help from them.
Now I don't post content. I run uBlock origin AND Adblock Plus, and watch videos every day without ever seeing an ad.
Fuck YouTube.

@notjustbikes use your platform to tell people on YouTube about it then refer them to mastodon and peertube as alternatives.

@notjustbikes@bike4climate @thibaultmol @notjustbikes The YouTube team probably doesn't want all that digital garbage flooding their servers as well, not even speaking about actually paying out ad revenue for it.
Meanwhile the rest of the company has the slop machine running on full-tilt.

@notjustbikes Apply Nightshade and Glaze to your content, perhaps, prior to posting? https://nightshade.cs.uchicago.edu/index.html

@remove_huilo @grepe @jo @notjustbikes And I don't know how anyone can say we've overcome that challenge. It's right now being leveraged in several countries to force massive surveillance on everyone. AI could go away and we'd still have that shit.

You do have to watch out for grumpy-old-man-syndrome as you age, but the enshitification of everything is real and *the algorithms* and AI have very much been a huge part of ruining it all.

They really need to step up if it wants to protect its legacy and its future@noncandeggiare @notjustbikes I doubt they do. Just want to hoover up as much money as possible as fast as possible and don't care one bit.
All other considerations rescinded.
Crew expendable. -
