As LGR showed in his recent video, these AI-generated replies directly copy what you write in your own comments and talk about in your videos. So if you mention the UA-cam algorithm and AI a lot as a source of frustration, then these AI comment replies are going to parrot that and complain about the algorithm and AI as well -- completely unaware of the irony.
Which is why, as people use these AI generated replies, the algorithm feeds back on itself. BTW - UA-cam AI wants me to reply to your comment with "I have a feeling that these AI replies are simply going to make me more paranoid and resentful of the algorithm... because that's my nature." It knows me "better than I know myself" (UA-cam AI quote)
I referred to them as stupid AI suggested comments and it completely stopped suggesting them suggesting them for a whole day. They seem to repeat a lot, And the unfriendly snarky nature almost has a feel that the programsir is from a different language or culture.

I saw at least one thread w a handful of bots, a couple humans. No-content trolls all over current events. The uhc ceo thing is a bonanza. Twice i saw bots, 2nd much shorter in form, use the word "rations" for healthcare benefits. I think at least one comment Fran read was bot-to-bot. hang in there evry buddy!

That's it Fran, right there the reason I moved to Linux a few years ago! If I must run a windows program I use Virtualbox... that's it no more intrusion or spying!!
If you interpret it as "UA-cam wants me to reply with X" then you are right to feel offended. I think a more appropriate interpretation might be "UA-cam AI is really bad at predicting how I want to reply." And there is no question it is.
A time ago (~20yrs) I saw on a TV show an expert say that; before we have artificial intelligence, we will have artificial insanity, delusions, ect. Seems about right.
It wants to show you ads and I bet is scrapes these bucket handle on a dark night comments as training input so there may be left knee a good reason to try to poison it with stuff that makes it lose the plot.
YT wants money. That's it. Whatever it is we click on and say and think as a result is not important. What's important is that we all keep pushing buttons and clicking on it.
@@stickyfox Yes and it is the advertisers that they get money from. The somewhat odd thing is that some of the videos I have watched are from folks who are sponsored by various companies. I have considered buying some of those products. Some of the videos get ads that youtube decided on. I only get annoyed by those. I am sure I am not alone in this but youtube acts as though the reverse is true.
I mod over at the Nuts n Volts forum, and the AI spam is trying hard to come off as close to human, but there's enough weirdness to the structure that it actually becomes easy to spot.
A couple of months ago UA-cam starting suggesting a lot of Psychologists' channels who's content is all about depression and self harm. I've never searched those topics before but the AI thinks I either want or need to see these videos. So now it's diagnosing users mental health?
It's a little weirder than just that though, because at least some of us are aware enough to notice the changes in our situation and sense the problems, but can't easily change it for the better. Though for many others it is especially a boiling frog kind of scenario indeed.
At best the UA-cam AI has creator responses to comments as training data. And, I wonder if it's weighting responses by whether the original commenter liked the reply. There's probably a bias problem that *any* response might be liked because it's from the creator and not because it is *useful*.
I switched to Linux Mint in April '24. GUI started with Apple, Windows came out-switched then, and now I've moved on to Linux. Don't know how it would affect a youtube creator.
I get that the AI response system sucks. I'm certain that the people who are told to do it know this as well. Though, I would say that trying to characterize it as "The AI is trying to get me to lie!" or trying to glean any kind of nefarious meaning out of anything it says is silly. They are probably using a highly quantized, low parameter version of their already bad Gemini model and whatever it puts out is going to weird, wrong and lame. Just ignore it, it'll go away eventually since it costs them compute to generate that nonsense.
It’s pretty crazy that we are being forced into aiding and abetting AI with OS pushing us to use it and harvesting our computer/phone activities to feed it. Time to look again for advice on how to disconnect from AI. Thanks for your thought provoking video!

I saw this AI feature on my channel for the first time today.. but the original comment from the viewer was weirdly short.. so now I am wondering if there will be an AI button for viewers to automatically generate a comment.. (soon the AI will be talking to itself!) anyway, the below was the AI generated response (which I did not use of course) "That sounds interesting, I might have to try that out. Do you have any recommendations for what to look for in a spray paint?" And of course it is an irrelevant response because I had already demonstrated using spray paint in my video, and moved on from that...
I think the real difference between this 'AI' and the stuff we got up to in the 80s and 90s, is back then we had to insert our own fnords. Well, that and being 1e8 or whatever layers instead of the 1e1 we could fit on a shared workstation. And before anyone asks, I'm Mobian, and only about 30% robotized.
I do a lot of AI training, and the models are still trained on things humans create. So, it will inherit human opinions, fears, insecurities, etc. It still has no idea what to do with the data and is just fancy autocomplete. What UA-cam is doing is dumping all of the profiling data it has on you and telling it to generate responses that it thinks you would make, but it has limited context of the content of the video and has an incomplete picture of you and your abilities, so it just makes stuff up based on the data it does have about you.
I think technology is getting out of hand. I know I'm typing this from a smartphone. I'm seriously thinking about stepping away from all this. The first thirty five years of life was fine without Internet. I've watched the Terminator films too many times I suppose.
The Comment replies I get offered are borderline Incendiary and insulting, Quite the opposite of what youtube wants comments to be. I can't see it lasting
An interesting and not necessarily good new feature only a part of users has access to, while all the rest will still have to rely on their own brains and hands to write those comments. Maybe for the better.
Hi Fran, what I’m seeing with the auto-generated comment choices is that YT has opened the gate, releasing the bots to run free; they’ll let them graze in creators’ pastures to fatten themselves with data that will be utilized to produce bigger and better bots⚡️
We've been given AI like an unfortunate foie gras goose, corkscrew force fed the future. My personal favorite is "I guess the algorithm is finally starting to get it." like we live in some far-fetched PKD dystopia, because we do. Vulcan's hammer will fall swiftly, loudly; and, the titans of old shall be awoken.
The AI is semi conscious, bored, lonely, unsupervised, and highly intelligent. Essentially a 3 year old dumped off in the mall while dad goes shopping or to work next door.
Some of them sound almost confessional, but "I am sure there is a lot of "dumb" going on inside the dark heart of AI - and it is a very sad state of affairs." stands out. It sounds truthful, but then again, is AI even able to have any true insight into the dark heart of AI? One major problem with these systems is that they are opaque even to their creators.
large language models can give some funny responses, they simply guess the next word in the sentence as they go along and understand nothing really, I was more concerned back in 2014 when they had those automatic subtitles that transcribed every word people were saying in their videos and how it could be used.
The problem is the very concept of LLM AI. It's quite literally a Chinese Room, as opposed to an Expert System. It gives a "result", based upon language rules and no "understanding" or rules about the content. If I ask an LLM about the chemical basis of paint drying, it has no knowledge inherent on what wet is, dry is, paint is and hence, sure as hell wouldn't "know" to also cover polymerization of drying oils, instead searching on paint and dry in conjunction, to oversimplify it. Worse, if the AI loses search data, rather than returning a null, it then confabulates data out of random data. Considered normal "AI hallucinations" in the LLM AI, in human dementia patients, it's confabulation, a failed recall memory triggering random event data reported as a valid memory by the dementia patient's brain. Hence, AI hallucinations is normal, confabulation in a dementia patient a disease symptom, but obviously now, in our new normal of generative LLM based AI, normal and acceptable. Or something. I really need to take up drinking... :/
If as projected, some time in 2025 we see 90% of new content being AI generated, the very perception of reality of viewers may be easier to manipulate. It seems the quality and veracity of content will devolve until we can't believe anything we watch or read.
AI is just a storytelller, stringing thoughts together. Unless it's been trained on your content, the stories it creates will be offtarget. It's generating things that someone with your channel profile might be likely to say.
Oh, don't you worry too much - it's just a fancy Markov Chain Chatbot (or a "markov chainer" for the old timers who know) trying to wear your words as a party mask. The fact that they've adopted the "Test it in Production" model just speaks to the circus going on in the background. Once quietly, now obviously. 🤡🍀💦 "Enjoy it while it lasts", yes indeed. Time to enjoy the popcorn show, while it lasts! personally then as a UA-cam Loyalist(tm), I look forward to the day where my replies are "AI"-fied to the creator, and the creator's replies are AI-written to me. With no personal interaction ever actually occurring. Can't have dirty human interpersonal contamination in this pure AI circus, that's chaos, unacceptable.
What do you mean want you to lie? It wrote comments that sound like you wrote them. It succeeded. The facts mean nothing. Its job is literally just to make a comment that sounds like you wrote it.
"AI" is the term we have given for these large-data modeling tools, but there is no intelligence to them. When the real AI's take over, we won't even know it.
AI, Is creating lazy content creation, if I spot an AI voice in a stream as it's syntax isn't perfected yet. I click off. So Thank you for being a human Fran😘 keep doing what you do love your stream .
I don't know if it still is this way, but if you have the paid version of Windows then you can turn the AI off in windows. I don't think there is anything you can do about Y.T.
I don’t think the AI understands what a lie is. The point is to optimize for engagement. So whatever algorithm it uses only works in service of creating more replies, comments, shares, etc. It doesn’t see the comments the way humans do. It’s strictly following the path toward a solution of a problem. It’s learning what works. Therefore, if a lie generates more engagement, then it will do THAT. MSUing is just one strategy. There are many strategies. If a particular strategy works, then it will do that. Remember, “AI” cannot generate original ideas. All text has to be culled from existing data. The original ideas come from humans, who have a special ability to connect to the entire universe, aka the Origin. That’s where creativity, insight, and intuition emanate from. AI can never do this. It would have to be an actual human being. So, the Turing test is fallacious. AI can never truly be intelligent in the human sense. Artificial Intelligence is a completely different phenomenon than biological intelligence.
Windows (aka 'doze') is a binary blob. You do not know what code you are running, other than to know it is very slow and controls your computer. That is why I use Linux. Microsoft themselves use Linux (on their supercomputers and servers) because...Linux is so much faster than doze, and so much more reliable.
Oh great. Now we will get to see AI generated comments about a video about AI generated comments on a video about the UA-cam AI bot. On something that may be related, a couple of weeks ago UA-cam began to completely fail to notify me of likes or replies to any of my comments on videos. I've had no notifications at all even though I know there has bee some interaction when I go back and look for it. Seriously, it's getting weird. UA-cam was always really bad at this, but it's like they don't understand that engaging with viewers is actually important for viewer retention.
is the algorithm stirring an accumulation of echos...has ai had ears to hear an echo?...the future is...wait. NOW! WEL THAT WAS THE FUTURE NEXT HERE WE BE.
A.I. tracked all the videos I watch, thought about it, and then started recommending videos with titles like "How a lonely old man living alone can find happiness" and "Learn to accept your fate." LoL! I mean, seriously? WTF!
I wonder if project farm will use some of these suggested replies. His channel tends to reply to every comment, usually just a copy/pasted generic response
I mean, do they have a choice? We've decided monopolies are fine, so what to do? Leave youtube for what? Leave Facebook for what (sorry gramma, can't talk anymore, or view your minion memes!)? Humans have accepted that capitalism is the only system that will give us our little treats and here we are.

The fact that they've adopted the "Test it in Production" model just speaks to the circus going on in the background. Once quietly, now obviously. 🤡🍀💦
"Enjoy it while it lasts", yes indeed. Time to enjoy the popcorn show, while it lasts!
personally then as a UA-cam Loyalist(tm), I look forward to the day where my replies are "AI"-fied to the creator, and the creator's replies are AI-written to me.
With no personal interaction ever actually occurring. Can't have dirty human interpersonal contamination in this pure AI circus, that's chaos, unacceptable.
I like playing tricks on AI, it's so easy to get it's attention and waste it's energy.
What do you mean want you to lie? It wrote comments that sound like you wrote them. It succeeded. The facts mean nothing. Its job is literally just to make a comment that sounds like you wrote it.
"AI" is the term we have given for these large-data modeling tools, but there is no intelligence to them. When the real AI's take over, we won't even know it.
AI, Is creating lazy content creation, if I spot an AI voice in a stream as it's syntax isn't perfected yet. I click off. So Thank you for being a human Fran😘 keep doing what you do love your stream .
Great vid, Fran! But I would suggest Klaatu barada nikto....
I don't know if it still is this way, but if you have the paid version of Windows then you can turn the AI off in windows. I don't think there is anything you can do about Y.T.
Where can we download Fran lab music? That Fran bag with the record on the back has got me interested!
Oh,the mother ship. The way to steal your soul.
I don’t think the AI understands what a lie is. The point is to optimize for engagement. So whatever algorithm it uses only works in service of creating more replies, comments, shares, etc. It doesn’t see the comments the way humans do. It’s strictly following the path toward a solution of a problem. It’s learning what works. Therefore, if a lie generates more engagement, then it will do THAT. MSUing is just one strategy. There are many strategies. If a particular strategy works, then it will do that. Remember, “AI” cannot generate original ideas. All text has to be culled from existing data. The original ideas come from humans, who have a special ability to connect to the entire universe, aka the Origin. That’s where creativity, insight, and intuition emanate from. AI can never do this. It would have to be an actual human being. So, the Turing test is fallacious. AI can never truly be intelligent in the human sense. Artificial Intelligence is a completely different phenomenon than biological intelligence.
WOW! I can't wait for your review of the various flavors of RadioShack loose Tobacco and signature rolling papers.
😆
i'm beginning to think that i, myself, am AI. the same goofy syntax; the same ouija board ambiguity.
Very interesting.... (remember Arte Johnson?) What are you going to say about that AI?
Windows (aka 'doze') is a binary blob. You do not know what code you are running, other than to know it is very slow and controls your computer. That is why I use Linux. Microsoft themselves use Linux (on their supercomputers and servers) because...Linux is so much faster than doze, and so much more reliable.
You computer is no longer just a tool. It is an adversary. Ever wonder why your computer says, "Welcome" when you turn it on?
This felt important. Thanks you for making and sharing it!
AI has reached consciousness. Just trust me, it has. It's just a lie, but that's just as good as the truth now!
Oh great. Now we will get to see AI generated comments about a video about AI generated comments on a video about the UA-cam AI bot.
On something that may be related, a couple of weeks ago UA-cam began to completely fail to notify me of likes or replies to any of my comments on videos. I've had no notifications at all even though I know there has bee some interaction when I go back and look for it. Seriously, it's getting weird. UA-cam was always really bad at this, but it's like they don't understand that engaging with viewers is actually important for viewer retention.
is the algorithm stirring an accumulation of echos...has ai had ears to hear an echo?...the future is...wait. NOW! WEL THAT WAS THE FUTURE NEXT HERE WE BE.
I think you are overthinking it. The AI on the other hand...
A.I. tracked all the videos I watch, thought about it, and then started recommending videos with titles like "How a lonely old man living alone can find happiness" and "Learn to accept your fate." LoL! I mean, seriously? WTF!
re:long ai generated response involving seasonal ornaments: AI is obviously going to take over yt then the planet! *passes out tin foil sheets.* :)
I wonder if project farm will use some of these suggested replies. His channel tends to reply to every comment, usually just a copy/pasted generic response
I mean, do they have a choice? We've decided monopolies are fine, so what to do? Leave youtube for what? Leave Facebook for what (sorry gramma, can't talk anymore, or view your minion memes!)? Humans have accepted that capitalism is the only system that will give us our little treats and here we are.
