Those subreddits label content wrong all the time. Some of top commentors are trolling (I've seen one cooking video where the most voted comment is "AI, the sauce stops when it hits the plate"... as thick sauce should do.)
You're training yourself with a very unreliable source of truth.

Intentionally if I might add. Reddit users aren't particularly interested in providing feedback that will inevitably be used to make AI tools more convincing in the future, nobody's really moderating those subs, and that makes them the perfect target for poisoning via shitposting in the comments.
Also, most Reddit users are AI.

I don’t just look at the bot decision or accept every consensus blindly. I read the arguments.
If I watch a video and think it’s real and the comments point to the source, which has a description saying they use AI, how is that unreliable?
Alternatively, I watch a video and think it’s AI but a commenter points to a source like YT where the video was posted 5 years ago, or multiple similar videos/news articles about the weird subject of the video, how is that unreliable?
I don't understand. In the grandparent comment you say you have a problem spending too much time on those subreddits and watching too many of those videos, but then you push back here.
Personally, I don't think that behavior is very healthy, and the other parent comment suggested an easy "get out of jail free" way of not thinking about it anymore while also limiting anxiety: they're unreliable subreddits. I'd say take that advice and move on.
Which themselves are arguments from bots.
This itself could be a bot argument casting doubt on reddit. It's an endless cycle.
If bots reference real sources it's still a valid argument.
