out above, it's quite possible someone generating AI slop like this could also have a different channel for MAGAts. It takes almost zero effort to have AI generate this soulless, meaningless slop. Just ask an AI music generator for a song in a particular subject in a particular style, and with all the world's copyrighted music having been stolen to train the AI, it'll immediately generate something based on all that theft. (If the AI companies had trained AI only on what they had a legal right to use, they wouldn't be boasting about how well their tools work.)

Images and videos can be generated just as quickly.

So one of the best ways to spot AI slop is how frequently these videos are posted. That site's averaging about one a day. Different styles of music, and different voices on the songs. Different types of artwork.

You're not going to have real songwriters, musicians and singers creating, recording and producing real music at that rate for months - 236 videos in less than 7 months - with real artists doing the artwork.

And btw, the TOS for the slop-producing AI tools sometimes explain that other users might be given the same content.

That YouTube channel tells people to feel free to use the videos. Since they're AI generated, there is no copyright on them. That YouTube account didn't really create them.
