Thank you. Enjoyed this read.

AI slop videos will no doubt get longer and "more realistic" in 2026.

I really hope social media companies plaster a prominent banner over them which screams, "Likely/Made by AI" and give us the option to automatically mute these videos from our timeline. That would be the responsible thing to do. But I can't see Alphabet doing that on YT, xAI doing that on X or Meta doing that on FB/Insta as they all have skin in the video gen game.

They should just be deleted. They will not be, because they clearly generate ad revenue.

Not going to happen as the social media companies realise they can sell you the AI tools used to post slop back onto the platform.
