Over the past couple years, artificial intelligence has drastically changed the online landscape. Now, it’s finally hitting Kevin’s home turf – YouTube science content. This week we’re diving into the new trend of AI generated science videos, and what that might mean for the future of content on YouTube.
This whole conversation started from a recent Kyle Hill video where he lays out the problem exactly. If you haven’t seen that yet, check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=McM3CfDjGs0&ab_channel=KyleHill
You might expect lower effort, lower quality videos to get buried in YouTube’s algorithm, but you’d be wrong. We talk about the insane numbers some of these videos are doing, how they’re being promoted on the platform, and the kinds of accounts they’re getting served to.
Sure, things might look a little bleak right now, but what about further down the line? Is there a future for this kind of content? Is YouTube going to do anything about it? SHOULD YouTube do anything about it?
Then, we finish out the episode by talking about one of the main concerns when it comes to AI generated content – misinformation. When you’re letting a computer make your video from start to finish, and your main concern is putting out as much content as possible, it can be pretty easy to have some factual slip ups. But then again, being wrong isn’t just exclusive to AI.
Thanks to everyone who joined us live, and thanks especially to our patrons who make this show happen each and every week. We’ll see you next time!
