YouTube has an effective monopoly on small scale video like this. Creators try to use other platforms be the audience just isn’t there.

Distributing video is also considerably harder compared with text or images, so it’s harder to for grassroots platforms to start up.

The best solution would be to turn away from detectors, which will always be a losing game, and return to crowdsourced curation through users likes and ratings.

But that would end up with too many of the corporate propaganda videos getting tanked with dislikes so YouTube will never go for that.

Quite a few of the people I know and consider “normal” openly dislike AI.

I’m not sure it’s a majority opinion buts it’s not an obscure one.

I remember IrDA, I also remember it being frustratingly slow and unreliable.

Visible light data transfer isn’t new either. The Timex Datalink watches were using flashing coloured patterns on a PC monitor to send data to them in the 90s.
