What's the end game?

AI sloop ads for dating apps full of ai chat bots , YouTube watched by AI bots.

I was a bit surprised Spain has the most subscribers to ai sloop. Kinda weird considering the population size compared to the US

The end game is that computer generation beats human content for a subset of the population who becomes accessible to advertisers and propagandists through model alignment, and unresponsive to word-of-mouth.

The end game is eliminating the last remaining human element in the engagement optimization pipeline, so that the corporations can control 100% of it.

Platforms like YouTube and TikTok already have almost full control of how the majority of users spend their time on their platforms. They open the app, they immediately get a feed of content algorithmically selected to keep them on the app for as long as possible. They don't need to search, they don't need to think about what they want to watch, they just consume. Fully automated consumption with 0 human effort involved.

Well, almost. There's one last thing remaining: you still need humans to produce the content that you then put on people's feeds. Or rather, needed. Now that the actual production can also be automated, those platforms no longer need to put effort into finding existing human-created content that will keep people watching - they can just generate new, algorithmically perfect content. This is their endgame.

There is no “end game” it’s just hustlers out for a buck for themselves — YouTube, the slop makers, the ad companies, the bots scraping videos, all of em.

Same as it ever was. When this cash cow proves worthless or runs out it’ll be another thing.

What makes you think that there is an "end game"?

Someone figured out how to make computers be able to create content that is costly to distinguish from human-made content. Someone else is using it to pump out AI slop in the hopes that it will make them a quick buck. The platform becomes unusable for anyone that values their own sanity. No "end game" to be found.

AI will be the worst thing that happened to society in a very long time.

Its channels from Spain, so presumably appeals to Spanish speaking countries.

the 'slop' is generally at either end of the extremes of video length, either shorts or multiple hour videos.

shorts get paid by the view, ppl put on long videos to fall a sleep to and youtube premium does a rev share based on watchtime of the premium user.

this is why you have like 10 hour playlists and white noise videos.

I have noticed people on the subway watching them. I sneaked a peak on a few of their phones and it was legit AI slop with clear signs (for me at least) that it was AI generated. The end user (viewer?) seemed hooked but they are mostly shorts (10-20sec videos) and you can see their fingers swiping to the next one.

The other day my mother told me if I watched some random AI slop (Putin getting in a physical fight with Trump) and I asked her why she watches this stuff and her answer is that it comes up in her feed. She said it was funny.

I don't know what to make of any of this.
