The YT AI trash machine
These AI Slop "the deleted scene you never saw!" videos on YouTube
are almost 100% garbage. Most of them seem to be duplicated scripts of
each other with different imagery filled in lifted from other YT
videos or with various cuts from other movies that often aren't even
relevant to the topic. Just churning out to try grab clicks. Google
loves this. Combined with so many obvious scam products dominating the
YT ad rotation, it's a sad, sad descent for Google.
