Not sure it's possible to fight machine generated slop on the big platforms now. People who invest a lot of time and effort are being squeezed out. Businesses that don't give a fuck about quality upload multiple low effort videos a week across multiple channels getting massive views, probably most from gaming the system.
Sad for the people who spend months researching, writing and producing videos but this might be the end of the ride as far as making videos as a day job. The platform doesn't value them or their loyal viewers.
The creators facing burnout who don't leave out of disgust will join the slop machine and start championing it. Starting to see it already.
