YouTube one of the most useful apps we have as seniors!

Unfortunately, it seems about 20% of it is AI Slop now. I watch YouTube almost exclusively and love it. However, the impact of AI generated content is ruining many parts of the internet. Disturbing, but not downright scary like it is about to become!
Laws are going to have to be established, don't you think? YouTube has AI guidelines, but I'm talking about legislation. There's going to be laws about it in the near future, particularly in journalism. I mean, it'll probably start there.

Currently, YouTube creators who use AI have to note in their video descriptions "some content is altered or generated" or something to that effect, or else risk having a strike and/or their video taken down, and shorts are suppose to use a program logo or other conspicuous indication that the content contains AI-generated images, but I don't always see it on shorts that I know dang well are AI, because some of the people in it have 7 fingers or their leg passes through a chair or whatever.
 
Very useful, for repairs, but I often have to spend a half hour or more finding the particular video that has the specific info I need. Another gripe is that they leave out showing you how to do the thing you need to know about. For example, they just say to adjust something, but don't SHOW you how to do it. Arghhh. However, AI has been great in filling in the missing information for me.

Are you putting the words "How to" at the beginning of your search? That always gets a practical demonstration for me.
 
I use YouTube to double check myself. Especially if I haven’t done something mechanical in a long time, my arthritis is acting up in my hands, and I’m not sure if I’m doing something wrong, or if it’s my arthritis getting in my way.

I know what to look for. I just need a refresher course, so YouTube comes in mighty handy in that regard.
