More on the AI-Joe Biden YT channel
Digging into this further, on at least some platforms and for some
videos on that channel, you may briefly see a small "Altered or
synthetic content" banner in the upper-left corner. It is not clear if
this is being added by YT detection or toggled on as part of the video
metadata by the creators, but it's easy to miss even when it is present.
Nor is it clear -- judging from the comments that seem to believe the
videos are real -- that most viewers even know what that banner really
means.
No matter how you look at it, this is still a very bad situation.
