The cadence and format of this video actually makes it look AI-generated. The content is padded and repeats itself quite a lot, the video is pretty much all stock footage, and the audio lacks any kind of variation in style like you'd expect even if someone were reading off a script. It sounds exactly like what you'd hear if you fed a script into a modern TTS.

Unfortunately that’s how many YouTubers make videos. I was watching a video about Chinese manufacturing the other day by Bloomberg, and 15 minutes worth of content was thinly stretched to 45 in a similar manner.

The more crappy TV documentaries worked like this since forever.

True. Regards media peeps, if AI can do your job, you need to try harder.

Came across many YT videos where you can almost smell the lifted content and structure from Wikipedia (or another video), often by people who aren't experts on the topic they're covering. History channels that are unable to tell the difference between England and Great Britain being a personal peeve.

Google is quite good at detecting duplicate text content, apparently duplicate video content isn't so much a thing.

Algorithmic capitalism already trained humans to be bots. And so, not much of value was lost. :D
