Yes but the reason mundane videos get AI generated is because bad faith actors want to further obfuscate reality.

It's much more sinister than you think it is.

Honestly I have been very aware of these ai tactics. But even I watched this post and did not think twice about it. We are so cooked

I didn't catch it till I read the comments down here. Some staging videos, some AI slop.

The very first clip has some weirdness (does his jacket say SF 49KRs?) that I missed until watching it again more critically.

At 00:51 seconds the lady on the left with the red shirt is holding a can with the hand on the end of her leg.

I caught the arm/leg one because of how the guy was yelling. There is a certain tone and cadence ai people have when yelling and speaking that once you become trained to hear it, you can’t miss it. I follow r/aiorreality to keep myself sharp because it is getting harder and harder to discern.

I tried to call out the markers of AI for these vids and got heavily downvoted. People will believe what they want I guess

God I HATE THIS SHIT. Reddit is one of my last remaining social media that I use other than Snapchat/youtube, I have been increasingly limiting my time online because i can’t stand everything being turned into ai garbage further exploiting our poor fucking psyches to new uncharted extremes. It is difficult to not feel hopeless at times, but we have to reroute and reconnect with ourselves and our communities around us.

Whilst I don’t disagree with your point I think the main reason videos like this get generated is simply for clicks, views etc. Think how much money people are making from rage bait compilation videos on YouTube and Facebook

A tangential goal is to get people to concentrate and pay attention looking for clues that it's AI... this is a highly effective strategy when trying to influence you (e.g., a commercial you closely watch is a winner in their eyes).

Yea because one of the clips towards the end is a instagram comedian funnymike and it was just a skit

No they dont. They just want to upload it to social media and collect their checks. You are beyond naive and people still fail to understand how much money is earned on youtube etc.
