Not only cute rabbits dancing, but also a tabby cat giving the middle finger and a nursing baby flying a plane. The addictive AI videos are hard to stop watching.

Foreigners have recently become obsessed with "wild animals doing strange things": late at night, a cute rabbit has fallen in love with the trampoline in the backyard!!

Netizen Mark Gadala - Maria is dedicated to teaching people how to use AI. Recently, he collected the "animals under hidden cameras" videos that have gone viral on TikTok.

To his surprise, most people didn't even realize that these videos were generated by AI.

Wild Animals' Crazy Night

Late at night, wild beasts are jumping on the trampoline in the backyard:

A tabby cat "patrols" at midnight and "gives the middle finger" to the surveillance camera.

Its "animal friends" also "give the middle finger" to the camera together:

The social circle of the domestic cat shocks the owner all day long: 😲😅

A capybara named "Kabibala" is playing on the seesaw with a chrysanthemum cat:

The fake indoor surveillance camera is so realistic that it makes people doubt everything:

YouTube Is Brainwashed by Robots

Last month, a video made by AI went viral on YouTube, ranking in the top 3 with a staggering 130 million views!

Although the core of the story is the cliché "careless mother, genius child", the plot is a bit outrageous:

The mother is busy with registration, and the baby climbs onto the luggage conveyor belt and boards the plane directly;

The ground crew is careless, and the little baby pilots a big plane into the sky;

The mother kneels on the ground helplessly and cries desperately with her face in her hands;

The incident makes it onto the news hot search;

Multiple fighter jets are urgently dispatched to track the plane...

The outrageous plot and exaggerated performance are comparable to the "mindless" style of some domestic short dramas.

On Reddit, some netizens think this kind of content is too mindless.

These videos seem a bit "too addictive". Do people really like watching them?

There is every reason to suspect: Do AI - made videos exactly meet the preferences of AI?

In other words, is this an "ego - trip" of AI? AI watches and likes the content made by AI - forming a perfect closed - loop 🤣.

Some netizens sighed that AI has really changed the Internet, not just these "mindless videos":

Everything is becoming like this:

Job seekers use AI to create resumes to attract AI - based job application screening systems;

Teachers use AI to formulate lesson plans and assignments, and students use AI to complete these assignments; Project managers use AI to write project introductions, and programmers and creative people use AI to implement these tasks.

This is just robots interacting with robots, using humans as intermediaries.

Are AI - made videos the result of self - indulgence or the crazy pursuit of global audiences?

YouTube's Robot Revolution

Can the "Unmanned Platform" Survive?

AI - created videos are quietly taking over YouTube.

It's very different from the situation six months ago. Among the top ten subscribed channels on YouTube in May, four channels have all their videos generated by AI.

This change marks a profound transformation taking place on YouTube: more and more content creators are starting to rely on AI technology to generate videos instead of traditional manual creation methods.

The AI era has finally arrived, but it may be a bolt from the blue for YouTube.

In the past few months, Garbage Day has tracked various AI - generated videos.

On YouTube, AI - generated videos have achieved greater and greater success, occupying a large amount of attention and space, even surpassing more professional creators. Among them, there are accounts that rely on false interactions to increase exposure - although AI is flooding on YouTube, it's hard to say whether this method is effective and it's worth pondering.

Meanwhile, some YouTube influencers and big V - users are getting less and less attention and are shifting their energy and promotion focus to other content platforms.

These signs indicate that the largest video website on the Internet is at a watershed.

In May, four out of the top ten YouTube channels rely entirely on AI - generated content.

Although the AI programs used by these channels are not exactly the same, and some videos may contain manually - made elements, they have never uploaded videos that are not made with AI at all. Moreover, these channels will continuously upload videos.

Compared with the YouTube landscape just six months ago, this change is quite profound.

In January, the most popular account making AI videos got 2.5 million subscriptions and 220 million views, barely making it into the top 20 that month.

By June, the total number of subscribers of the top four AI channels exceeded 23 million, and the number of views reached 800 million.

Obviously, the algorithm now favors AI channels more, greatly increasing the ratio of views to subscriptions.

This trend was first noticed in February.

There must be a reason for this.

Since YouTube started promoting more professional video content, it has faced a core problem: not every creator has the time, resources, or skills to produce Netflix - level content.

Google's advertising revenue sharing cannot fully cover the costs of improving the professionalism of channels, while AI videos can often meet certain standards, and the production cost is sometimes only a few cents.

Even some virtual YouTubers (VTubers) completely driven by AI have earned millions of dollars on YouTube.

For example, a game YouTuber named Bloo has attracted more than 2.5 million subscribers and over 700 million views with videos of playing popular games such as "Grand Theft Auto", "Roblox", and "Minecraft".

He has bright blue wavy hair and dark blue eyes. But he is not human - he is completely driven by AI.

By generating content with AI, YouTubers can meet the ever - increasing high demands of the platform's algorithm, especially in the area of short videos ("Shorts"). To compete with platforms like TikTok, YouTube focuses more on profitability than on attracting creators.

Since March, the platform has changed the criteria for counting Short views. Instead of requiring a few seconds of viewing, a view is counted as long as the video starts playing or looping.

According to DigiDay, this change has won the favor of advertisers, but creators are either indifferent or openly skeptical.

This is also closely related to YouTube's ambition in the TV field.

According to a report by Nielsen last month, YouTube has maintained the highest record of TV viewing share for several consecutive months and has become the world's largest streaming service platform, holding this position firmly for over a year.

This large market share is also reflected in its profits. Recent estimates show that YouTube is expected to surpass Disney as the world's most profitable media company.

For years, YouTube has been trying to position
