And just like that Youtube becomes slightly less bearable again.
Its been a long time since YouTube was bearable
…or you can just keep watching videos from human creators like you have done so far. If the content you’re consuming is already the kind that’s difficult to tell from AI in the first place then not much will change.
That defeats the entire purpose of YouTube and other algorithm-based content discovery and publishing services.
Personally, I watch the channels from the creators I like and slowly grow my channels through their recommendations. My bookmark goes straight to the subscription page and have uBlock filters for all the unwanted recommendations.
I couldn’t stand having an algorithm decide what I watch.
What does?
Only watching videos from creators you already watch.
Not really? I’ve never gone to Youtube for the content it tries to shove on me on the homepage. I always went straight to the subscription page… And now on my invidious instance, that’s the primary loaded page. I still only go to “trending” and “for you” once in a blue moon.
Youtube’s only value to you is its algorithm? Man if all you do is consume what is force-fed to you… You do you, I guess. 😬
Content discovery is indeed YouTubes only value, otherwise you’d just watch content on a better platform dedicated to the creator you wanted to watch like their patreon
obtained with content owner permission.
I mean yeah, technically lol. Lmao even. Perhaps a rofl is in order? Changing the terms of the deal when you have an effective monopoly is a powerful tool when combined with access journalism it seems.
There are quite a few big alternatives to Adobe stock. I doubt they are even the biggest one.
Have been playing with this inside Illustrator all day. Still a little glitchy. A couple years from now, though, not sure anyone will need commodity stock icons or images.
However, those able to design and build a consistent look and feel across apps/web/video/physical will still be needed, and likely worth even more.
I think you are underestimating the ability of the generative ai tools to build to a consistent style and theme. Sure it’s a problem now but not an insurmountable one by todays measures, so I’m assuming Adobe will have it sorted in a few years too
