Graham Stark @graham.loadingreadyrun.com · Jan 7 I’ve already talked to YouTube Partner Support so this is NOT a “get your pitchforks” post: A viewer sent us a screenshot that shows YouTube claiming one of our videos is AI, which I find insulting *at best*, and damaging to our brand at worst. For the record, all our work is human-made.

No pitchforks?
I'm wondering if it generated an AI dubbing track in a different language, and that's what's doing it.
Absolutely unacceptable. I hope this stops and the community knows how absurd this is 🧡
no AI slop here, only genuine human made slop.
“Service uses AI to scan content, mistakenly labels things as AI” will never stop being funny to me. If only it didn’t hurt actual creators livelihoods in the process.
*me already holding a pitchfork* so..... Put it back?
oh gods it also doesn't have a THIS IS NOT AI DUMBASS choice.
Jeez their internals can't get anything right... that sucks majorly!!
Can we get just a little pitchforky, as a treat ?
not even a little pitchfork? As a treat?
*starts sharpening pitchfork* Just in case. *nods* Just... in.... case.
Thankfully, I think anyone who's been following you guys for any real length of time knows you're at LEAST 94% human at any given time (but it varies day to day) Your refined brand of madness is inimitable to the clankers.
Haven’t seen this myself but I’m hoping for a way to report that as a false positive.
I mean as an AI video it sucks. The camera never zooms in and out erratically, no one randomly disappears from shot, and a hallway does not become a subway car suddenly. It’s all just witty dialogue and well composed shots. What nonsense!
JFC... that whole season had full BTS credits literally showing the work put into it!! Hope that gets handled promptly
The most generous assumption I could make is they dropped a word in the layout, like "AI video recommendation," but even so, that's a pretty crummy error. 🙁
I’m so fascinated by what could have triggered this. Just a horrible algorithm? Or the incredibly impressive ending sequence you all pulled off in this one?
The paranoia in me wonders if this isn't some way to make AI look better than it actually is.
The fact that viewers can't try to correct it on "this is not AI" is also an issue.
Question: Did YouTube replace any of your narration of the video with AI slop? I had heard of someone having that happen to their video automatically because some AI setting was turned on by default. Ergo, it thinks your video is AI.
Did it get checked by accident?
AI taking responsibility for all good videos because it can't actually make a good video itself, eurgh.
I am so sick of AI. AI scrubs actual media so obviously actual media uses the same information as the AI that stole it. Its like the college kids ive seen who get flagged bc they didn't make grammatical mistakes. Especially on scientific papers that use definitions and scientific terms.
AI just fucking ruins everything.
No real humans could possibly be that handsome!
New evergreen response to AI libel just dropped. Your welcome
AI? That's the funniest episode of the season ;w;
Any casual observer of LRR's content should be very aware of ya'll's stance on GenAI. This is a shitty move from YouTube. (This part is a joke though) You can't say all of your content is human-made though, I'm convinced some number of the team is a number of goblins in a trench coat.
The fact that they're claiming THAT video in particular is infuriating. That's one of my favorite eps to date. The AI bros can't take it from me.
That episode is great.
How does this happen? Why does it think it's AI???
