I watch a lot of STEAM videos on YouTube. In the past I loved supporting new creators but some time last year I stopped trying new channels that don’t have human presenter, there’s just so much slop. Now I’ve noticed that there are channels where even the presenter is AI. I can spot a few tells (presenter is never on screen for very long, voice pacing doesn’t vary, no ums and ahs, etc) but it’s getting harder and I wish I knew more clues.

One thing that seems to help is checking the channel history (does the presenter age, have they only started making content very recently etc)

Can someone recommend a good, recent guide to spotting AI videos?

    I check not only if the channel is recent but also how often they release a video.AI channels churn them out at quantity real creators don’t. Still not perfect,need more ways to spot them.

      There’s a channel I recently got into where every episode was “I watched every episode of [LONG-RUNNING TV SERIES] and here’s what I found.”

      They were posting 2 episodes a week.
