I don't want to blame you or the other viewers. In the end it's the fault of tech companies that we even have to ask these questions. It's not the fault of people to not assume everything is fake. 😭
It confuses me every time, but there are many people, who either don't care or are unable to even recognize obvious AI.

Hey board gamers - your feelings an opinions about games are being turned into slop.
There's a channel called Board Game Critique. All their videos are clearly made with AI. They fess up to this, but they claim that they write their own scripts.
I cannot definitively prove that they don't, but 1/x
Uff, uff...
The weirdest part are the comments, where people thank them for their "option" and praise their takes. 😭
Fuck AI slob! 🔥

Read it this morning and loved it! 💚 Really great story!
Really liked how he was true to his Shaper identify in the end and did not even flinch to make the decision to sacrifice the credits to save the kid. 💪💪💪
Love this! 😍😍😍
Will read that story later. Really curious to find out more! 🔥
That's some epic art! Love the old guy. And his stealth tech.
Is he "stealth" because he uses such retro tech that the corp's tracking technology is incompatible and therefore can't track him?
Uff, uff... 😨
As a creator, who funded their first project on Kickstarter, it really pains me to read that they have decided to do this. 😭
Another great weekend at the castle! 🤗🏰 Playing #lordoftherings #LCG for the whole weekend with wonderful people from all around the world! 🌍 #boardgames #cardgame #lotr

There are no AI artists, just AI customers.
If I had followed industry advice, I would have given up on my game NEON HOPE long ago, instead of bringing it to Kickstarter. 💪
My game design hot take is that you should rarely follow game designers’ advice. Especially industry professionals. Everyone has different goals they’re designing for and contexts they’re coming from that it’s rarely going to apply to you.
Definitely listen, but don’t feel like you have to follow

Today I emailed publishers about a concerning practice a board game media creator engaged in. This will likely become public, so I'm providing the details here to give the full context of what I shared.

It’s not a viable market product in a market where big tech platforms control distribution and tip the scales towards an endless supply of teenagers working free.
Every media company should be chasing the open social web to break that control wide open and reshape the market

Oh and their "AI" provider is OpenAI. Like one of the shadiest companies on the planet.
Cool.
I considered writing a long carefully constructed argument laying out the harms and limitations of AI, but instead I wrote about being a hater. Only humans can be haters.
