There's plenty of long form AI content lately too. Wikipedia articles make for great YouTube videos, and there's no shortage of them. I've run into several channels lately where it took me about 30 seconds to realize something was off, and checking the channel's history you can usually tell by finding older videos which actually have a person in them who is clearly very different than the narrator in the newer videos, or by just not having any older videos at all.
I’ve ran into those too 🥲
What kills me is all the comments completely oblivious to the situation
