Looking forward to buying the robot I can send to the movie theater to watch the AI-generated movie for me and come back and tell me what happened.

    So, first they rewarded YouTubers for wasting ever more of your time, making you watch as many ads as possible, and now they’re building a tool to sort through that whole crap content?

    That’s cool and all but they could’ve just made sure the regular-ass search indexer was consistently aware of the video transcripts.

    Many times I’ve searched for a video I’d seen using a specific quote I remembered from the vid… And got nothing, and had to painstakingly find the video manually.

      This is what pisses me off about the modern internet more than anything else. Most things don’t need to be a video. Written prose works so much better for most information content. This is how the internet used to be before YouTube.

        My man. Thank you. I have been screaming at my wife about this for years as if it was her fault. I’m really starting to think it’s because a lot of people are low key border line illiterate.

    All this will do is piss off creators due to monetization reasons, lead them to complain against YouTube, forcing YouTube to change their monetization process, which will lead to again changing the way videos are made.

    And at the end, they will find a way to again shove ads in your face more efficiently.

    This will be handy whenever someone responds to a comment with “this link proves my point!” And a link to an hour-long ramble.
