PSA FOR ALL YOUTUBE CREATORS/VIEWERS
Youtube has implemented AI filters at the start of August and it is decimating a lot of channels. For some people it was turned on automatically, basically rendering a lot of videos they usually enjoy fully invisible. If you've noticed a significant unexplained drop in views in the last 3-4 weeks this is the likely cause.
The crew and I were breaking our brains trying to figure out what we are doing wrong, some potential bangers flopped like they were hot garbage. Turns out Youtube started running this AI filter without notifying anyone really.
We took a big hit in ad revenue, sponsorship potential revenue and mental. Make sure your favorite creators know why this is happening so they don't lose their heads. Also don't forget to disable this Restricted Mode if you want keep seeing our vids and many other videos you may have missed.
If you want to run a test, go to a random channel you enjoy, enable the Restricted Mode and you will see their Videos from 6 months or a Year shown as the "Latest" uploads. The second image here is from our channel with the filter.
Not sure how the future looks for us here if this keeps on going, we will have to figure something out in the upcoming months. Hopefully we don't lose the battle with AI...

So, apparently, on top of the 'steal this image with our AI' button that now apparently exists on Twitter, the idiocy is now also mis-labeling legitimate art as being created with that AI. I already stopped posting art here ages ago, but I'll keep recommending bluesky anyway

Trump and Musk ordered all peer reviewed scientific publications regarding climate change, gender affirming care, or reproductive health publications be retracted.
So how is this not Weimar Republic 2.0, again?

This is the state of things, even if your household has two incomes from two separate fields, you're not safe from AI. How can people champion this?

Great news from the UK. The House of Lords has rejected the government’s poorly considered proposal to weaken the protection of creative workers to allow AI companies to use their works without consent. A victory for common sense. Hopefully the House of Commons will follow suit.
28 Jan 2025
The Lords have done the right thing this evening by backing Baroness Kidron's amendments. AI is a powerful tool that will do meaningful good for society, but British IP must be respected and protected.

Sir Elton John joins Sir Paul McCartney in rejecting - in the strongest possible terms - the UK government’s plan to upend copyright law to favour AI companies.
He says the plan “will allow global big tech companies to gain free and easy access to artists’ work in order to train their artificial intelligence and create competing music. This will dilute and threaten young artists’ earnings even further. The musician community rejects it wholeheartedly.”

The core regulatory proposition of the tech industry is "it's not a crime if we do it with an app." It's not an unlicensed taxi if we do it with an app. It's not an illegal hotel room if we do it with an app.

Who the f*ck gives @sama the right to unilaterally and undemocratically disrupt "the entire structure of society"? This is absolutely outrageous. We need to stop this immediately.
Sam Altman: Advancing AI may require "changes to the social contract."
"The entire structure of society will be up for debate and reconfiguration."

"In theory, generative AI could help some developers lighten their workloads. That’s not happening. Instead, developers are reportedly working longer hours than they have in years."
Fixing AI slop leads to underpaid jobs and overworked work environments.
23 Jan 2025
52% of 3,000 devs surveyed by the organizers of GDC said the company they work for is pushing and using generative AI.
We already know artists and others are being forced to pick up the slack with AI after layoffs, so where does this leave game devs and the industry?

I’m not sure people quite grasp how much of the crypto world is reacting to the Trump memecoin launches.
ALT wassielawyer （哇西律师） @wassielawyer Trump dropping his own memecoin means he has the wrong people in his ear re crypto policy. I’m now getting very concerned about the Trump presidency.
ALT nic carter @nic__carter · 11h Something that hasn’t been much discussed - creating a bunch of personal memecoins opens the door to secretive foreign buyers trying to curry influence with our leaders. If you hated hunter biden’s anonymous art sales, you should hate this too. nic carter @nic__carter Basically, we used to have an informal rule that presidents wouldn’t start or run businesses that could pose a conflict of interest. Creating a bunch of memecoins and defi protocols opens the possibility to rampant violations of the emoluments clause. Not to mention the obvious COI given the fact that trump can set crypto policy.
ALT Ryan Selkis (d/acc) 🇺🇸 @twobitidiot Dear @realDonaldTrump : Please fire whoever recommended going forward with the Melania launch today. 1. They don’t know what they’re doing. 2. They cost you a lot of $ and goodwill. 3. They don’t have your interests in mind.
ALT Brent @Brentsketit feel bad for anyone trying to build anything serious rn president just making a complete mockery of this industry fighting another biden admin prolly would have been better longterm

As for the other 2 colors, those have a simpler explanation: Most printers have 'rich black' enabled by default, which is a black achieved by mixing ALL of the inks together. If you don't want that, you need to dive deep into printer settings to turn it to black&white only.
16 Jan 2025
It's because printers need the yellow ink to print the invisible tracking marks which the government can use to track down the printer if it's used in crime
This sounds 100% schizo but it's real

The AI critics have been proved right about basically everything so far. But one thing that has surprised me is how much the companies are trying to FORCE us to look at GenAI. Top of every Google search. Bottom of every viral tweet. No way to let users turn off. Seems desperate.
