I was just thinking how great it would be if Google did the same and moved all the AI content from Youtube to a separate platform.
"Don't mind me, I'll stay with this old crappy human content, you go enjoy the cool ai stuff"π
I fear this will be an uphill battle for YT. I have this gut feeling that Meta and OpenAI here are employing the flooding the zone strategy to hurt and maybe displace YT. The sheer flood of slop with the occasional enjoyable nugget of content flooding YT from the pAIrates will be harder to filter out, clog up servers, and users like you and I will get annoyed and gradually consume less content. YT loses market share and some new platform can move in for the kill, operated by Meta, OpenAI and/or other such reputable companies. It's not easy to monetize this crap, which is a loss leader at this point. It doesn't look to me like enough people will subscribe to these services to be financially viable. They have to find other ways. So pivot to video 2.0 - this time with so-called AI! Sigh.
If it all goes away, I won't care. Youtube is all about creators and they are the worst. Whatever.
Google is leading the charge with their own video AI
I'm not aware if they have announced a platform for this type of video. OpenAI and Meta have and that's what I meant.
They have their Veo 3 video model
Itβs the one that doesnβt have a problem turning black people into monkeys.

I'm not talking about models. That in itself is not a YouTube competitor.
My mistake then
