Hey, video lovers! Brace yourselves: a recent study by Kapwing reveals that a whopping 60% of TikTok videos are AI-generated, and YouTube’s not far behind with 21%. Why does this matter? Well, if you love authentic content, these numbers might just blow your mind.
Kapwing dug into over 10,000 TikTok videos and found that almost six out of ten are AI slop. Even more concerning, videos aimed at kids hit sky-high levels of AI content, with 97% of #CartoonKids videos being artificially produced. YouTube’s numbers aren’t as high, but 21% is still a hefty chunk. If you’ve noticed the same trend, you might want to check out what’s happening with YouTube TV updates.
So, why is this happening? Video platforms reward quantity over quality, pushing creators towards AI-generated content to boost uploads. But don’t worry—both platforms can be trained to show you less AI junk over time. While you’re at it, check out some cool features on Spotify or explore Roblox’s potential in gaming.
Keep an eye out for more AI content and remember to curate your feeds for a better viewing experience. After all, quality over quantity, right?
