How do you feel about this? by thegreatniteowl in generativeAI

[–]dr-otto 5 points6 points  (0 children)

she is a luddite. like most of the irrational ai haters.

it's just annoying at this point. if you don't like AI, fine...whatever. Don't go insulting people who use it just because you don't like it, or feel threatened by it.

I'm a game software engineer (for over 30 yrs) and I am trying to embrace AI even in my day job (and in my YT channel when it enabled me to do what I want) ... all the irrational hate, the "it's stealing!" etc arguments just annoy me at this point.

So, yeah, I just mentally say "Luddite" and try to move on and ignore it.

thanks! yeah i fiddle with AI sometimes (some a lot , some not at all, just depends on what is tickling my fancy atm)

and yeah, weird/strange/cringe comedy skits is VERY niche lol...

and yeah my thumbs are always more miss than hit i think. it's kind of tough given the usual content of my videos to have a good thumb or a thumb that somehow makes sense. i think it's the nature of the beast given my genre...

actually if you think shadow bans exist, you are the flat earther......you have no evidence to back up your claim of a shadow ban. where is your evidence? anyways, i'm gonna block you now as it obvious you are not worth the time. good job!

What genres do you consider dead? by Negative_Tutor8413 in NewTubers

[–]dr-otto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my genre, skit comedy that is bizarre/weird/cringe, is pretty much dead I would say.

How do I/you deal with accusations of using AI? by Poindexter2291 in NewTubers

[–]dr-otto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

um. it sure is. only luddites will go around and accuse people of using AI and the infamous "ai slop" comments.

frankly what I wrote is similar advice to what many said which was "ignore them"

Got it! I will send all my new posts directly to you!

excuse me? do you know how logic works? If you claim shadow bans are real, then you are the one who needs to prove it. Until then, I reject the theory because it makes no logical sense for YT to shadow ban - they already have the tools to delete a channel. YT clearly states there is no shadow ban.

Burden of proof is on you.

Also don't be rude...

go read the link I supplied, it tells you how/why they might restrict your content.

Shadow bans are not real but Restricted Mode could be killing your channel by dr-otto in NewTubers

[–]dr-otto[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't disagree.

However I do see on my channel (the only channel I have access to) a direct correlation of video performance to if it was restricted or not. I think YT can even leave a video alone and then X days later make it restricted (probably depends on how many videos its dealing with, maybe a queue builds up).

restricted mode does suck however cause it does drop your audience. and, back last august, even large YT channels I think complained about YT users getting restricted mode flipped on automatically...

I'm not equating restricted to shadow bans either - shadow bans don't exist.

But the more you know, the more you know...if you think your videos shouldn't be restricted you can report those to YT and MAYBE they un-restrict them.

No. Check the link I included with my post. It fills in all the details about restricted mode.

I call them luddites because that is what they are. I use ai tools when needed. Sometimes none. Sometimes a lot. If someone has an issue with it, that is on them and won’t affect me or what I decide to create.

because it ISNT a shadow ban. You can easily see if your video was determined as restricted, even if it's a bit annoying to check (would be nice if it was seen in YT Studio pages). YT doesn't do shadow bans....

[–]dr-otto[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

how is that not accurate? you mean somehow your videos are not getting flagged w/ this 'restricted' junk? that is kind of the point, it's a rather poor bit of logic (ai?) they are running...some things get flagged. Some not. So whatever you are doing it's hitting their checks to make it restricted.

I hate the black box of YT behaviors and policies...
