The whole damn site is being flooded with AI slop. I've been doing some car repair deep-dives lately, and now my feed is periodically littered with shitty AI listicle clickbait videos about random gearhead topics, and a good chunk of the time the information is flat-out wrong (and serves as engagement bait to get boomers to show up in the comments). It sometimes takes me a minute to figure out if it's an AI voice or just some novice with a shitty mic and not enough experience narrating because of weird delivery/emphasis, and once you are watching one of those fucking things, you don't have a way to tell it not to recommend the channel to you anymore.
Fuckin' YouTube.
