Bad AI videos, bad AI voices, bad AI art and music
What they don’t know or understand is that this is the side effect of AI, not the driving force or even it’s primary use
In reality AI has infiltrated most businesses and is very quickly, if not already, an integral part of daily business routines
I got banned from a sub for being a shill because the mods did not believe me when I told them we use AI to transcribe our morning meetings, make tasks on our kanban board, review code, run tests, and manager our build pipelines
I was told, “AI can’t do any of that” – huh?

Honestly, I really didn’t get that vibe from any of them… I have no idea what the kids are like these days though, and I’ve never used TikTok, so I guess I can’t say for sure.
Wow. That’s… really far behind. Anyone who is familiar with what those words mean, really should know that those are pretty basic features by now.
Man, their minds might be blown if they were to see Hermes’ Kanban feature in action. It’s basically AI running its own Kanban board with a team of agents. You throw a task into the “Triage” lane and a “decomposer” agent breaks it down into smaller Kanban tasks (including research/exploration if your triage prompt is vague), which automatically get picked up by whichever model the decomposer chose as the best fit for each task.

That’s why I think they’re all 15. They literally have zero idea of what AI is actually doing in the world and when I tried to explain it to them they told me I was lying
I have a kid so I’ve seen the Shorts on YouTube and a lot of them are “AI Slop”. It’s bad… like, real bad. If this is all I knew of AI, I’d think anyone who sees it as a useful tool is an idiot too
The biggest offenders are the videos that start with a wild concept. Like, “this woman dyed her hair using 13 gallons of pink hair dye! You’ll never believe how it turned out!”
But then the video is interrupted by AI Jesus or AI cats or something and the cats or Jesus beg you to like the video but also also if you love your mom you should subscribe and also if you love Jesus and your Mom (or you don’t want this cat to starve to death in the street and you love your mom), leave a comment telling Jesus or the Cat that you love them so they’ll know you care
And then it finally goes back to the woman who dyed or hair or whatever, but it’s barely a second long, and it’s just like, “her hair was pink” and the video ends.
So 99% of the video is badly animated AI Jesus with a bad AI voice begging you to like the video or else you’ll go to hell and the remaining 1% is, “this woman dyed her hair with 13 gallons of pink hair dye. You’ll never believe how it turned out! Her hair was pink”.
The ones I really hate though is when somebody takes an existing short (maybe of somebody cleaning a dirty rug) and they have AI write a song about it and they play the AI song on top of a video someone else made
The songs are always awful and they always end the same way, “but they were sad because they didn’t get any likes”
It’s bad… and so if I were a tween who spent my lunch break watching TikTock and this is what I saw, this is what I knew of AI, of course I’d hate it. How could anyone defend that trash? That’s what we’re sucking up all the water for? But they also think it’s a trend. That eventually these videos will stop getting likes and when that happens people will stop making them and AI will go away
It won’t though, AI is here to stay

That sounds like a nightmare. I’m so glad that kind of garbage doesn’t show up in my YouTube feed. I don’t think I ever would have been able to break my AI hate, being exposed to that bullshit. That sounds like something from Idiocracy.
What a terrible waste of compute. I can understand how that could make people see AI as just a vehicle to waste resources while making everyone dumber.
