Yes, though in that case you need bit of a broader approach.

funny, I clicked the eye dropper, found the tiny magic spot that highlighted the entire shorts section (the word and the videos), then clicked that, no shorts listed, except in my bell from my friends. Now I'd like to block the other AI crap (full vids) without having to view it, I use the similar looking AI thumb and just don't click it
