Capitalism makes it worth it to setup an Agent and 50 new channels on YT that does nearly the same. It doesn't matter how many people gets spammed as long as some views are amassed. It already happens in normal biz on all levels. All AI 'slop' is just Capitalist slop. Really, it's only there to make money.

I find them annoying too, but unfortunately, AI accelerates the Capitalist enshittification we see everywhere..

I miss the days when making money from posting things on the Internet wasn't really a (widespread) thing. In the earliest days of YouTube there was no partner program, everyone who uploaded anything there did so out of enthusiasm; if we still had that, maybe we'd have fewer videos overall, but no one would have a reason to post AI slop or other low-quality videos just for profit.
