This is also my thesis. The internet is going to be saturated with AI slop indiscernible from real content. Once it reaches a tipping point, there will no longer be much of a reason to consume the content at all. I think social networks that can authenticate video/photo/text content as human-created will be a major trend in a few years.
I have no clue if the reactions are real, but there are some videos online of people showing their grandparents gameplay from Grand Theft Auto games trying to convince them that it is real footage. The point of the videos is to laugh at their reactions where they question if it really happened, etc.
Maybe this will result in something similar, but it can affect more people who aren’t as wary.
I regularly get AI movie recaps on my shorts and I just eat it up.
The very fact that I (or billions of others) waste time on shorts is an issue. I don't even play games anymore, it's just shorts. That is a concerning rewiring of the brain :/
Guess what I`m trying to say is that, there is a market out there. It's not pretty, but there certainly is.
Will keep trying to not watch these damn shorts...
