The Ai content flooding of the internet is coming faster than I thought.
LinkedIn is already dangerously full of Ai posts and comments.
YouTube is another victim,
with an avalanche of Ai-generated repetitive videos, uploaded with the sole purpose of monetisation.
It seems Google is doing something about it.
This new update to YouTube’s monetisation policies should better identify “mass-produced” and “repetitious” content.
And remove monetisation in order to discourage their creators to produce more.
For platforms it’s a trade-off:
-> More content (whatever the quality) -> more inventor for ads
Vs
-> Less content but higher quality -> more engagement -> more premium ads
The latter will definitely be the winning strategy in the long term.
Users will get fed up with Ai garbage very quickly and move to the next platform that promises to filter this content out.
How platforms manage the Ai flooding now, will determine their success in the next decade.
