One of my relatives just unironically sent me this completely AI generated video. AI voice, only Ai generated visuals (non-existent Chinese & Arabic characters in a video about Chinese & Arabic), and a completely generic message that's impossible to fact check (3 hardest languages of the world, ranked by trust-me-bro logic). People are falling for this shit so hard and I hate where we are going 😭
@Techaltar AFAIK videos like these done in this sort of style (but not completely AI generated) had already been making the rounds on TikTok and such for some time prior to the AI craze. They pretty much only exist as a really cheap way to farm views and engagement on (factually worthless) content and not much else. The "information" they provide is almost (if not) always completely anecdotal and is unlikely to ever be super accurate person-to-person (especially in the case of languages).
@Techaltar But of course, people still fall for it, either because they don't realize the "information" they provide is completely factually worthless, or because they just don't care. That's modern social media for you. 🙄
@Quinn9282 yeah that's true but I find this even more terrible somehow. It's a video about languages and all the languages depicted in it are nonsense. The Chinese, Arabic and Latin characters completely wrong. It's not even anecdotal, it's downright shit
@Techaltar That's even worse. I mean, at least "historically" the stuff these sort of channels posted was at least anecdotal, but this is complete nonsense garbage. I have to guess that the creator is either a) purely relying on the fact that the audience for this video doesn't know what actual Chinese or Arabic characters look like, or b) knows the different language characters displayed in the video are completely made-up nonsense, but just doesn't care; or perhaps both. Who knows.
