how can we reduce our use of AI and protect our planet if every time I google something it generates an automated AI response 😭

this post burned my weekly Claude subscription, so it has to go viral, right? right??

day 1 i analyzed 12 faceless youtube channels, most of them built with AI, and this is what i found: > several are less than a month old and already have millions of views > one got 4.5M views on its very first video > every single one hit 100k views within its first 6 uploads > they're all telling a story > the story is built on real-world facts and numbers that are actually interesting > they all have one unique main character > the picture changes every few seconds, nothing sits still why am i doing this? i'm starting an experiment: building an automated youtube channel from scratch, with zero experience in this field day 1 rules: > the channel is faceless > i'm not recording anything > the voice is AI > the main character is built in code, so it looks the same in every frame > editing has to be automated > only minor edits by hand 0 videos, 0 subs, €0 goal: monetised by the end of january i won't say which channel it is, but i'll share everything else here. numbers, mistakes, what works and what flops

the only people who get noticeably better results with ai are the ones who already know what the end result should look like

idk how i'm supposed to top my first real post 😭

so my friends all hate AI because "it's for lazy people", then they proceed to ask me to solve all their tech problems

the moment you realize what life looks like for people who don’t know anything about AI, politics or the economy:
