I’m not sure if this is the right place to post this, but it’s the first place that came to mind.

I just saw an ad on YouTube advertising penis enlargement pills with nothing but a video of a doctor that had a handful of jump cuts, and the video was paired with audio that had no noticeable cuts.

Most notably, the doctor’s lips were clearly edited by an AI to make it look like what she was saying matched the audio, even though the video and audio were obviously recorded separately.

I just think it’s downright fucking hilarious that YouTube now has the same ads that porn sites have. Damn, Google. What a dumpster fire.

    I’ve been noticing this trend a lot. Profit made them all forget their principles, if they ever had any.

    All the “serious” newspapers, that existed irl when the Internet became available, are now using the same subscription-based model, showing really low ads and contributing to the search engine chaos. They suddenly have articles about anything, just for SEO, just to rank high on Google.
