AI's will capture viewtime so effectively that human creators channels will wither.
Most popular youtube content is already garbage in my opinion but many small kids are already happy viewing bottom tier AI gibberish for hours.
And if endless AI content will soon be good enough to hit the dopamine centers in adults, only the connoisseurs will seek out the human made content making the markets impossibly small for artisans creating video content.
It's already a tragedy that socialmedia has made it so 95% of all content consumed on the internet is made in the last 24 hours lowering the value of making an effort.
Everyone is in desperate need of quality, boundaries and strict media diets including myself.
