My elderly uncle is completely addicted to these. We can barely complete a conversation without him getting bored and pulling out his phone to watch these nonsense videos. I don't even understand what the point is. The ones he watches are these clearly procedurally generated stories. It'd be one thing if the content was actually interesting, but ugh.
Now I am super curious, I really need to see an example of one of these videos!
Here's a representative example that my father in law (in his 70s) shared with me the other day: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=puRg-4ZvNYs
somebody in the comments mentioned this is a point where the AI glitched out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=puRg-4ZvNYs&t=150

Maybe I should be generating generic AI made videos. LOL.
These are crazy (and scary)
Hang out with some 5-10 year olds and give them control of YouTube, they'll show you within 2 minutes
The man ran into the woman. [Young adult Far East man runs into young adult Far East woman.] The woman said sorry, I am such a clutz. The man said, that’s okay. The man fell in love with the woman. The man dated the woman for many weeks. The man met the woman’s father [Tekken grandpa]. The man did not recognize the father. The man and the woman got married. Turns out that the father was actually the owner of the company where the man worked and the daughter was the heiress. The man and the woman went out for dinner.
There are so many of these stories… it makes me wonder if humans in general have “general intelligence” either.
Or whether it’s only a small subset who do.
What people do is not well correlated with what they know. You can't reduce people to their behavior. You can reduce machines to their behavior.
If you disagree, I would strongly suggest you review where else you might be making this incorrect assumption.
