20. There's loads of this stuff on the web, and has been for years and years.

Anything about old Hollywood stars/movies/shows. Anything about people from history you never heard of (no one knows this secret history!), anything about current events. I keep telling youtube I don't want that crap, but it keeps showing up.

I get the same crap on my Facebook feed, including all the "AI" content crap about the above topics and more. Urgh.

The day "AI" gets so good I can't tell what it is, is the day I cut off the internet and TV. I refuse to help thieves steal from real people. "AI" is not a tool, it's theft of IP from people who have no real recourse to stop it. Creative people are being put out of work due to the world's infatuation with something that doesn't actually exist. THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS AI. I don't care who says otherwise, there just isn't. Good computer programs, sure. But it's not intelligent and believing in "AI" makes you stupid. General "you", not anyone specifically here.
