- Comment on How can I spot and avoid AI videos? 1 week ago:
I find it amusing and even a bit ironic that AI has led to an entertainment landscape where low production value and human error have become more valuable!
As someone who’s been listening to lo-fi/independent music since the ‘90s, that’s not a new phenomenon.
Same goes for movies I believe (not really an expert there).

Is that the best AI can do nowadays? The video looks obviously unreal even at low resolution. Where’s the difference between 100% CGI produced and AI. Visually, I mean.
The music is just bland. Unfortunately there’s way too many humans that produce slop like this (it’s still their IP though!).
Paraphrasing another commenter here, I’d say “overproduced” is the thing to avoid - whether it’s human or machine made.

I stopped trying new channels that don’t have human presenter, there’s just so much slop. Now I’ve noticed that there are channels where even the presenter is AI. I can spot a few tells (presenter is never on screen for very long, voice pacing doesn’t vary, no ums and ahs, etc) but it’s getting harder and I wish I knew more clues.
Part of the problem is that even human presenters use too many effects so that they look - well, artificial.
Overproduced, as another commenter put it.
Maybe look for channels that don’t do that? On its face, that would be an indicator of quality in my book.

the networks themselves
wdym? The Internet (governed mostly by US “non-profits” that are happy to swallow MAGA balls)? Its physical infrastructure?
- Comment on Why do East Asian men barely get thick facial hair? 5 weeks ago:
No on both counts. It’s tricky, talking about these things, because the spectre of racism looms, but it’s a real thing nonetheless. See my answer.
- Comment on Why do East Asian men barely get thick facial hair? 5 weeks ago:
Asians generally have less body hair. Not just men, not just facial.
Other people do too - the reason I gave up growing a beard. Can’t get beyond the scraggly phase.

many of the distinguishing features of East-Asian people have recently been linked to a single gene mutation.
Of course “genes” is the answer here.

So, was it blocked by default?
If so I wouldn’t read too much into it.
