2022. When chatgpt first came out. https://arstechnica.com/ai/2025/06/why-one-man-is-archiving-...

I’ve already gotten into the habit of sticking “before:2022” in YT if what I’m looking for doesn’t need to be recent.

The AI slop/astroturfing of YT is near complete.

  • I would say around 2023. I refuse to believe the slop propagated that fast.

    And there's more than enough content for one person to consume. Very little reason to consume content newer than 2023.
