Haven’t seen this TED talk in some time but I seem to remember it saying very creepy children oriented YouTube videos were generated based off of keywords. Maybe ai videos will just be like a trillion monkeys making videos. Some are bound to be awful, some are great, most are middling.

Edit: obviously I should have just asked bing for a summary of the video. Below,

Show HN: The nightmare videos of children’s YouTube and what’s wrong with the internet today This is a TED talk by James Bridle, a writer and artist who exposes a dark, strange corner of the internet, where unknown people or groups on YouTube hack the brains of young children with disturbing and inappropriate content. He shows how these videos exploit YouTube’s algorithms and advertising system to generate views and revenue, and how they reveal a deeper problem with the internet today: a lack of human oversight, accountability and transparency. He calls for more attention and ethical responsibility from tech companies and users. Link: https://www.ted.com/talks/james_bridle_the_nightmare_videos_...
