Animal rescue stories are popular on YouTube.

A YouTube channel sharing animal rescue stories now has 1.2 million subscribers.

The only problem? The stories are completely made up and the videos are generated using AI.

This content literally outcompetes videos from real animal shelters — for profit — while misinforming our children and anyone who cannot see the difference.

I cannot begin to describe how much that angers me.
