YouTube did nothing to it, why would they, it’s their dream business model.
They could still cut the crap without change in revenue. People would just click on other videos instead of AI Slop.

They are a monopoly. They don’t care and they don’t have any financial incentives to care. Making good platform that people want to use is hard, making it a monopoly and populate it with slop that other bots are clicking through way easier, and brings basically the same results. People who don’t want to click on slop will continue to do so, but now they’re spending more time looking for it, which is even better for ad revenue. What else are they gonna do, watch Vimeo? Go outside? Don’t be ridiculous.
