Folks, if you see a YouTube video that features AI slop, stop watching it at that moment. YouTube tracks the number of viewers that remain watching over time, and a drop in viewership that coincides with the display of AI slop will tell the creator that people don’t like AI slop.
I’ve stopped watching numerous videos when an otherwise innocuous presenter decides to show AI slop. I hope I’m sending a tiny signal to show my displeasure.
