Just saw the notification for this in my Youtube Studio. For now it seems as if this setting is turned off by default, but for anyone like myself who uploads videos to Youtube, I recommend checking that they don’t decide to toggle this on for you in the future.
Coincidentally, Google just like two days ago revealed their new text-to-video AI model that somehow is leaps and bounds above the rest of the competition they attribute to better training data. How weird. Coincidentally weird, of course.
It’s going to be fun navigating Youtube in the future when 95% of it is robotic videos with 95% AI comments below to match.
Honestly, I wish it was the other way around, a video-to-text service that writes a good synthesis, a complete transliteration with formating, or even an expanded version, with screenshoot images if deemed necessary. So many videos could be turned into nice essays and commentary.
I despise seeing an interesting topic or attention grabbing question only for it to be a 20-30 minute shit heap.
All video generation models are heavily trained on YouTube. YouTube and Hollywood are essentially the only datasets.
They’re not a third-party! Loophole!
