It looks like the kind of video spam that now shows up in searches for technical questions.
- jsheard 3y agoThose seem to be getting more common, it's very annoying. Another genre is autogenerated "product review" or "comparison" videos that are just ChatGPT-generated fluff copy read out by text-to-speech voice over a slideshow of product images, presumably to push an affiliate link in the description. Most of them get few if any views but they're so easy to make they just take the shotgun approach and hope some win the SEO lottery: https://i.imgur.com/xebU9os.png https://i.imgur.com/xebU9os.png That channel has some hits, they posted a monitor "review" which pulled 20k views and a few dozen comments from real-looking people seemingly unaware the channel is run by a Python script.
