Alphane MoonAI video is invading YouTube Shorts and Google Photos starting today
JiminaMannStarting today last year, and even further back
ArghblargWTF kill this with fire.
Nuke it to be sure!
Omg i just checked out Veo 3, and videos can never be believed again. I mean it couldn't in the past either, but at least you had to have technical video editing skills or the money to pay someone who does. But now any schlub can just type a dumb text prompt and the machine will generate an extremely realistic looking video of exactly what you wrote. Insane. Absolutely insane.
How are we this far in the future right now?!
tarknassusThis should help - all done on Veo 3 and it’s not as great as it’s cracked up to be.
Good thing PeerTube exists, you could always just move there. Google stopped being trustworthy as a creator as soon as they announced Veo 3 if not even before then.
It doesn't matter where you view videos, the output from the ai generators is just an mp4 file that can be uploaded anywhere
Assuming PeerTube as a platform embraces AI in the same way Google/Meta/etc. are, even though that’s fundamentally impossible based on its decentralized nature?
Then I don't understand what your point is as a reply to my original comment. I said "no video you see can ever be believed again", and you reply with "well you can post your own videos on a self-hosted service". I don't see how that follows as a response to my original comment.
EDIT
I think you seem to be under the impression that ai videos are somehow locked onto only being on YouTube. That isn't the case. Anyone can go to any Veo ai generation site, write a prompt, and it'll generate a video of that in an mp4 file which they can upload to any video sharing platform. All mp4 files are the same thing, regardless of whether they were made by a video camera or ai.
BagsI've been weaning myself off video content altogether, which I feel is the most surefire way to avoid AI video.
I feel like I'm going to turn into such a paranoid tin-foil-hat nutcase and just trust nothing I don't see with my own eyes... I mean I would be ok with that, it just sounds miserable.
Don’t worry. The energy usage from this will significantly help warm the planet, so it will all soon be over.
EngywookDon’t care. Just don’t use them, as a I do.
YouTube shorts are cancer already. I’ve had them blocked ever since they appeared.
How do you block them? I keep pressing “show fewer shorts” but they keep popping up and I can’t find an option to block them entirely.
I just used block element in ublock origin. Haven’t seen em since
Thanks! This seems to work.
Use this on Android:
newpipe.net
Or this on Android or desktop:
grayjay.app/desktop/
I use a plugin on Firefox. I’m not in my desktop right now and I don’t remember the name but it was easy to find if you search “YouTube shorts”
MysticKetchupIn addition to what others have said, SmartTube has options to remove them on Android TV devices
Ublock + ff. in ublock select the eye dropper, move the eye dropper over the shorts section until you see the videos and the word shorts highlighted then click to block
Is that opinion because you’re on a phone? They’re OK by me on a PC and big TV. OTOH, if I’m not logged in, the pure shit they shovel at me, yikes.
They’re designed to keep people with poor impulse control caught in a constant loop of short garbage clips. A bigger screen is not going to change that.
Also I don’t normally watch YouTube on my phone unless I’m travelling and when I do I use NewPipe.
BeBopALouieNever watched one, never will. Rarely watch YouTube either except the odd music video.
I used to hate short form content in principle
but YT shorts actually shows me content from creators I like. sometimes I like browsing it, because some of that content is well suited to the format rather than dragging it out into a five minute video
what I fucking HATE is when YouTube opens up to the shorts page and just autoplays. it’s inconsistent and idk why it does that
now, why the shorts format is here, and we can’t just mix the short videos with the long ones in the same library… idk
I can’t wait until AI video is good enough that you can input a book and it outputs a movie which is as faithful as you like to the original, you can change how all the characters look, etc
Match!!can you not do this in your head
𝚝𝚛𝚔I was reading old mates comment thinking… This dude is just describing reading a book.
Many people can’t. It’s called aphantasia. I still don’t want AI-generated video anywhere near me.
