YouTube is not an innocent party in this new fraudulent ecosystem. It was literally built on piracy.

AI-generated content should have the same amount of copyright as prompt texts. You can't claim copyright for the text "Rock music with angry vocals and 160 bpm with a guitar solo". But I think training models using copyrighted content is stealing in the first place. It's not fair use, so it should be banned entirely.

AI generated music has started to ruin most music on YouTube for me. My feed is starting to get crammed with artists and DJ sets of things like "1 Hour of Cowboy Western Songs to Listen to While Traveling Through the Frontier". Is it real music? Probably not because the thumbnail is plastered with Pepe memes and other rubbish. We starting to get to the point where music is like Low-background steel - as in it existed before the advent of AI slop. And before someone asks "bUt iT dOeSn'T mAtTeR hOw iT's mAdE, iT's aLl aBuOt wHaT tHe eNd rEsUlT iS" Yes, it does matter to me. Making art to me is about all the small decisions taken along the way to arrive at the final piece. When it hasn't gone through that process then I feel nothing when I listen or view it. Actually, I don't feel nothing, I feel deceived.
