AI Slop vs The Internet

Episode 13 · December 29, 2025 · 47 min

AI slop is flooding the internet, and XO asks whether it'll take down the whole thing. Assembly-line content with no creative ownership, AI research that makes up its facts, bots and scammers, and what happens to us when most of what we read is garbage.

About this episode

AI-generated junk is flooding the internet, and XO asks whether it'll take down the whole thing. Inspired by a Kurzgesagt video, XO looks at assembly-line content made with no creative ownership, AI research tools that invent facts to sound interesting, and the bad actors who use it best.

XO also covers whether we'll develop ad blindness for content itself, the sharp rise of AI's favorite words in scientific papers, why schools should teach students to use AI well instead of pretending it doesn't exist, and why, in the end, it's humans, not AI, wrecking the systems that help them.

0:00There's a silent fight that's going on that will ultimately change everything we know about sharing information and receiving information. On one side, you have AI slop, artificial intelligent garbage that's been spewed out, and on the other side you have the internet as we've grown to love or hate it. Now, some people will say that AI slop is going to destroy the internet. And there's a video I came across that inspired this episode today that's titled just that. AI slop is destroying the internet. And they lay out an argument on how exactly this is going to happen and how it's more of an inevitability than um you know, is it really going to happen? is the the what are the chances?

0:57It's more just like, you know, look at the math. You know, it's it's getting worse and worse and worse. And if you continue to run this down the timeline, it's going to destroy everything we know about the internet. All of the credibility, all of the function that we've been able to get out of it as far as getting information and learning valuable things. The fact that you're able to just look up how to do essentially anything you need to nowadays, it's incredible. And it's something that looking at the entire, you know, history of humankind, it's just been a blip. It's just been a fraction of a fraction of our time here on this planet that we've been able to do this. Any other time it's been stories that were passed down from generation to generation and then finally people were able to put things into books and the printing press came along and that was you know made it so much easier for books to continue to produce more and more and more.

2:05And then after that, you know, we were able to come up with computers and typewriters and all of these ways to continue to put out our information even faster and even more efficiently. These things, they change the course of our history for a reason. So for a fight to be going on with the internet and the information, you know, that's on it, to be more specific, that's that's something that shouldn't be taken lightly, that shouldn't be just looked over as nothing. But let's I I never can get the name right. Um I've tried several times. I tried to practice um before uh hitting record. Kurt Curts, I'm not even going to try it.

3:00Dude says it in the in the video how they pronounce his name. But shout out to them for this for this video. Um it definitely opened my eyes.

3:10Our 12,26 human era calendar just dropped and this year is extra special. Stay tuned until the end for the reveal or head straight to the shop to get yours. AI slop is saturating the internet and things are becoming dramatic pretty quickly. In an online world where money is made with attention, fake users spread their slop in review sections, generate fake traffic, or poison discourse. AI has supercharged this and made slop much harder to spot. Today, about half of internet traffic is bots. The majority of them are used for destructive purposes. It's never been easier to

3:50About half of pe of the users on the internet are bots. And then out of that, it said 37% are malicious bots out there trying to actually put harm out into the world. How these numbers have been found, I don't know. how somebody would even be able to calculate this. I don't know. My first thought is you really thought you counted them all. It could even be more. Even if it was 10% 10% less or 10% more. Like if we're at the 5050 mark now, as of 2025, if we're at the 5050 mark now, it's not looking good for the internet, you know, might need to throw in the towels, they say, cuz And then so much of it is just people trying to do malicious things.

4:59And it makes sense, right? That's again looking at the history of humankind, the internet might be a blip, but the way that humans act, you see that through the course of history. You see tendencies towards violence and using power to get whatever you want. And you can you can say whatever you want. Like you you're just you're arguing with God. You can't get mad at biology. I mean, I guess you can, but to what? And you know, what do you get out of it? We uh we're weird little animals that do weird little things.

6:03And now because of AI, we're able to multiply that weirdness. And the thing is, the weirdos, they're the ones that they're just conniving, trying to figure out, h, who am I going to catch slipping? It makes it really hard to just be an average person that isn't trying to, let's say, put any bad on the world, of course, but let's say not even trying to put any good in the world. Like, I'm just doing me. I'm just going through life. I'm not trying to mess with anybody in any means, so to speak. Just be chilling. It makes it hard. Cuz you got to be constantly aware already.

7:04Grandma already gets scammed out of her her check. You know what I mean? Thinking that her grandson Johnny's locked up and needs needs some bail money. Don't ask me why, Granny, but you're going to have to cash at me. Yes, they they do allow that in jail now. I appreciate it. We got to be more aware, but like he said, it's just making it harder

7:40To make mediocre content. From the black hole of meaninglessness that is LinkedIn, loweffort short videos just engaging enough to hypnotize kids and fry their attention spans to endless, soullessly rewritten books on Amazon. AI music is invading streaming platforms. Google AI is summarizing websites instead of sending traffic to them. On YouTube, new channels publish long- form videos multiple times a week with AI generated thumbnails, voices,

8:08He's he's covering a lot of different things. So before he keeps a lot of that a lot of that you really can't be upset about. Like if you if you look at so many different innovations, you know, take it with music when you were able to start digitally recording. And I mean, honestly, you name it with the different when you went from vinyl, when you went from tape, when you went from all of these different things, it always is it's always cheating. It's always you're taking a shortcut. It's always they're not doing it how they're supposed to. It's always these these new kids, they don't they don't know how it's supposed to be done or they do and they just don't care. They're disrespectful of the art form. But art forms, they evolve. So the thumbnails, of course, they're going to use new tools.

9:05They're going to, you know, what what did graphic designers say about people that started using Photoshop? Oh, everybody thinks they're a graphic designer now. You know, it's it's okay. Things evolve and that's okay. But when it comes down to what he was saying with the endless amount of AI music, AI books, cuz it's not just music. Oh, you know, he's an artist. Of course, you know, he's going to bring up the music thing. That's the only thing that matters. No, I'm saying all of it in general because because accessibility to put our stuff out there no matter what art form you decide to do because that has the the barrier to entry has basically become non-existent.

10:11There was already so much out there. And I guess you could say the same thing as, you know, argue about it all you want. These landscapes evolve. I feel like there's a right way and a wrong way to do it. AI makes it very easy for bad actors to come in and not want to use the AI as a tool and to come up with something more creative and something that they are genuinely proud of, but more as an assembly line to just crank out whatever art form they decided to put out, whether it's music, whether it's, you know, uh artwork or whether it's uh books or, you know, what whatever blogs, whatever. There's probably endless things that's that's going out. People that are coming in and just using it as a factory, not having any sort of attachment to it whatsoever, feeling any sort of creative ownership over it.

11:20That's where I think it's a problem. And before you could say, yeah, anybody could have done that before. You know, let's say as a music artist, you could I just want to get a bag. I'm just going to go make some music. Put some maybe beats out. Whatever the you You're going to try and just put some music and hope that it hits and hope that you you make it. It's a very it's a very long road for a a a very slightly possible outcome, you know, like the amount of work that it takes to actually make that pay off. A lot of these same bad actors, they, you know, the the work it takes is what dissuades them for wanting to do it. So, when you can just put a prompt in and put that out, that's when you start to multiply, you see where um now they're saying like AI music is topping charts and like that.

12:21That's that's wild, right? Never us, right? never is is never going to replace us. Well, I mean, as of as of right now, you can't listen to an episode of Joe Rogan without him talking about an AI50 Cent song. So, like people people are enjoying artificial artificially intelligently made music and there's nothing wrong with that obviously. Um, again, I think the problem comes where it's the bad actors, the ones that are just putting it out there that's going to make the sea that everybody was saying, "Oh, it's just so crowded." It's going to make us look back at how it is even now as the golden age.

13:20Like, man, remember back then? And I mean, who knows? Who knows how that actually turns out? Maybe it won't be too too bad. Maybe there'll be something in place. Um, honestly, I'm not I'm not too worried about it as far as like putting content out myself. You know, you can make podcasts, you can make songs. What's the point of making podcast and making songs? Why don't just go prompt some AI? Like, well, cuz I I actually like doing this Why not? Like, I I get it. AI musicians topping topping charts. That's fine. But the point that this guy's saying and that I was starting off saying at the beginning of this video is it's the artificially intelligent garbage that gets put out.

14:23There's nothing wrong with using AI as a tool. I'm standing by that now. Maybe I'll change on that at some point, but that's kind of where I've been since it's popped off. But the garbage, the garbage, you can't put a little bit of effort in. You really think it's going to be that easy? And it's going to create the same effect that we kind of have for advertisements in general now. like an ad comes on, you know, you watching Hulu or some and an ad pops up, bro. Like my mind immediately I I like go to pick up my phone or I just like sit back and I'm just start thinking in my head. I just start daydreaming, whatever the It's very rare that like it it keeps my attention.

15:22That ad blindness that we have, I don't feel like we're going to start having for content. That might be one of the side effects of having so much AI slop out there. And that I don't know, that might things up. And scripts, true crime, video essays, science, no space is safe. Sper AI, right? Oh,

15:50It's going to put an AI of soulless slob. And sadly, actual creative human work is used to train these AI models. Every Reddit comment, original YouTube video, or human drawing on deviant art has been sold out to the AI companies or straight up stolen by them without attribution or payment to the actual creators. creative theft on a scale where it's impossible to protect against it already putting loads of creatives work in danger so AI companies can get rich. While this is sad and frustrating, what's even worse is that generative AI truly has the potential to break the internet irreversibly by making it harder and harder to tell what's true. At first, AI looked great.

16:38A courtazard script starts with basic research that turned into A curtsart script. Curtart got it into a script and then fact checked in depth by two to three people. We try to confirm our info with what we deem trustworthy, ideally firsthand sources, ideally papers. Then we get one to three experts for input and critique. Fact-checking and compiling our sources alone takes around 100 hours per video. Of course, we make mistakes or oversimplify. And you can disagree with our conclusions. It's unavoidable. We're only human after all. But it is fair to say that our process is extensive. And after a decade, we know what we're doing. When AI appeared, we were very excited. A mechanical brain able to super quickly collect information. So, we went to work and it looked amazing. And then we started fact-checking. We didn't expect it to be perfect, but it was way worse than we thought.

17:39Confidently incorrect. Yes. Yes. And before before bro continues confidently incorrect. That's the part how confident they are. And when you are looking something up typically it's because you are unaware of the answer. you're unaware of the correct information. Hi, we'll get right back to the show after these quick messages. You make enough saliva to fill up two bathtubs every year. And that's why this video is brought to you by Disconnected by XO Xuded. Now streaming everywhere you listen to music. Pause and wait for music to play.

18:37I need time with no one here. Just be myself and I shut out the world right now. I hope it helps me clear my mind. Disconnect. I'm disconnected. Inhale. Exhale. Like it's medicine. stress. Enjoy it for the time until like everything ends. I keep trying to run away from everything. So when something that appears to be so much smarter than you is confidently giving you incorrect information, it it's very frustrating because it's impossible to really tell what is what without knowing what is what. And yes, obviously you can double check everything and then you realize by the time you've double checked everything, it's like, damn, why didn't I just do this in the first place?

19:37It's gotten a lot better at that though at um just putting in random information, but it still does it. It definitely still does it. AI is so bad at this. We'll summarize and generalize our experiences over multiple projects and months condensed into one fake project. A video about why brown dwarfs are the worst and should be ashamed of themselves. So, we got all the pro accounts of all the AI models and got to work using deep research tools to create a summary and overview of all the information about the failed stars brown dwarfves. And wow, it was great. Dozens of pages of outlines with unique information nuggets and links to sources. Then we started to look deeper. More than 80% of the info and factoids were pretty solid and we could reconstruct where they were from, Wikipedia papers, legit articles.

20:36What about the rest? It was great stuff like the speed of brown dwarf supertorms, the nature of their insides, or how disappointed their moms are. But we couldn't find where the AI got this info from, which is not automatically a bad sign. After all, the models contain pretty much all the internet and books ever written. So, we asked experts for input, and they flagged the exact same facts, even asking where we found it. To fulfill its goal to make us happy, the AI had invented or extrapolated information to make brown dwarves more interesting than they Wait, what? What the Really are like a bad

21:19Okay. Whoa. Okay. I thought I thought it was just pulling like wrong information. I guess it's actually trying to make it more interesting and actually making it's lying. It's it's making up. It's not Okay, not lying. It's It's um It's telling fairy tales. Like what? It'll just make up to make it seem more interesting. And how many people will take what they see for face value and just go out and tell other people about it, especially if it's interesting. And that's exactly what he's saying. It's making it more interesting. So, imagine how many people go out and say, "All right, I'm going to use AI to do research, to make content, just like what this guy said.

22:17Oh my gosh, this interesting thing is so interesting. I make said content, put video out, and now there's even more videos out here with this wrong information." So now the next time somebody asks about whatever this topic was for the brown dwarfs in his example, now they'll be able to actually pull from a video and use that as a source like, "Hey, look at this source." And then what if somebody takes that um or they use AI again and then you know there's multiple sources and they have an article written on some some website I don't know and it starts to literally compile where you have multiple sources that are citing this incorrect information. The way that we share and receive information is fundamentally about to make a giant change. Even now with AI videos and AI pictures, it's so hard to know what to believe.

23:24And honestly, when somebody says, "Oh, this video was checked. It's real. It's actually a real thing." It's like, "Is it? What? How did you check that? I don't know how you do that. I don't I personally would not know if somebody sent me a video and then somebody else was like, "Hey, that that looks crazy. You should probably check to see if it's real." I mean, like, how the do you do that? How do you how do you check that? You run it when it through like another AI database. What if it's something like this? Well, this is very interesting. It's makes for a better story. Maybe that's survival, right? I heard um I don't even remember where, but I've heard like one of the things about the simulation theory is if we are in a simulation, they would want the simulation to stay interesting. So interesting things would happen. That would be one of the things to say, "Wow, we're in a simulation because interesting things keep happening."

24:26I don't know. It's kind of a weak argument in my opinion just because what is interesting for you and you can compile a list of a whole bunch of different things and you know put any type of meaning to it. Somebody else could say well no that's got somebody else could say no that's um just random coincidence. So, uh, I don't know. This it's this might be something that gets out of hand a lot faster than than I'm thinking that I was originally thinking.

25:04Journalist making up details to make a story hit harder or fit a narrative. Now, we wanted to know more and dove in deeper, reading the seemingly more solid sources the AI had given us in full. One was an article from a news site written by a human journalist or was it it

25:22N famously said of his own books I write in a single sentence what it takes other

25:29Had a very familiar structure and surely purely coincidentally read like what you get if a human slightly changes AI wording an AI essay detection tool gave it a 72% match so an AI article without sources used as a credible source for AI research Which makes sense since in 2025 there were already well over 1,200 confirmed AI news websites publishing massive amounts of AI generated misinformation and false narratives. This mix of correct, jubiously sourced and straight up madeup information also leads AI to present really shoddy conclusions that sound strong or novel, but are often halftruth.

26:11Well, this this is what I'm talking about. This is what I'm saying. This is what I'm saying. This is like one of those uh would you would you rather have $10,000 now or uh would you rather have a penny doubled every single day for 30 days? And you know what I mean? If you run that through, you're a fool if you take the 10,000 because you end up getting a whole bunch more when you just continue to double pennies. I don't remember exactly how much it is. I just know that it's one of those like what? It started out as a penny and in just 30 days it gets to this number. That's that's insane. That's wild. So this is one of those type of things. I think it's called like exponential growth like where it's it starts out as 1,200 websites. Okay. Well, next time it's 24. After that it's 48 and then it's 96 and then you know what I mean? It continues to compound and compound and compound.

27:07This is crazy. It's bananas. That's exactly what I'm talking about. And the fact that it's just misinformation out there and then the people behind the misinformation. You might be like, why why would somebody want to do this? Why? Where's the, you know, forget integrity. What do you get out of it? Well, if you get a good amount of traffic, you can start to sell advertisement space on your website or you can do a whole bunch of other things. When you actually start to get traffic to your website, like when you say um accept all cookies, there's a certain amount of data that starts to get tracked and I'm guessing people can sell the data or whatever. I I don't know. That's that wasn't that wasn't my journey. I decided not to go down the I don't know what is that like a human weasel route and just do whatever I can to just suck the ever living soul out of every single person that son I don't say pause often but that might call that might call for it.

28:29That might call for it. But bro, just one of these people that Yeah, I know I'm just feeding out into the world. I know I'm just I'm doing nothing good. There's nothing on my tombstone that's going to be productive to society. It's uh it's just nothing but to get as much money as I can. And if I was one of those people, maybe maybe I would know a little bit more about uh how you even sell the data, how maybe we would be more aware in general that that would end up being a thing. Like I never I never thought about that. Sign up for this here. Take my email. Take my number. I don't give a Like at first it it wasn't until you know I mean it's been years now but fairly recently compared to you know how long I've lived with I've had the internet like my whole life.

29:30You know what I'm saying? So it's like it's been fairly recently where it's just like oh I get it. Like you guys are all just selling my Like you you were like just spying on me and you know I don't want to read that So when I just say accept, I'm agreeing to some that I wouldn't agree to if he just put it out loud in bold letters and said, "Hey this is what you agreeing to." Then I'd be like, "Oh, never mind. Never mind." But I digress, man. I digress. This uh it's just going to get worse. This I'm telling you, this is going to be the golden age. This is going to be like, bro, we didn't even know how good we had it. We didn't even know how good we had it. Truths or misrepresentations. Oh well, we salvaged what we could and went back to the drawing board.

30:27And after a few weeks, it happened. By pure stupid chance, we saw a brown dwarf video popping up by a relatively new channel. It had hundreds of thousands of views and was pretty good. Nice footage, great editing, but we'd seen the structure and rhythm before. And would you look at that? It contained all the brown door facts we'd flagged as unreliable or straight up made up by AI. This is where the death of the internet begins. Now there's a proper source of brown dwarf misinformation online. When the next AI repeats the same research, it will find a transcript from a video with a lot of views. The misinformation is now true. it will spread. Even before AI, it was pretty hard to find the origin of facts that sound great but are not true. Just watch our video about a 100-year-old lie. As AI use goes on, it may become impossible to know what's true or not. The most corrosive lie. The problem with AI is how trustworthy it seems, how it's correct enough to seem super smart, and how incredibly confidently incorrect it is.

31:32Casually lying to your face, often very subtly. When you catch it lying, it immediately admits it, vows to never do it again, and then it does it again. As eloquent as current language models feel, there's nobody home. No greater intelligence or consciousness is talking back to you. Current AI is a very complex hammer that doesn't understand what it's doing or what nails are. But we're letting it add new shelves to the library of human knowledge. AI is changing quickly, so this may get better, but right now it's pretty grim. Way too many people blindly trust AI. Studies looked into the language of million.

32:15See, and that's the thing. It's more things added to the human shelves of information. But that's only because humans are putting their stamp on it. Humans are saying, "This was me. this was written by yours truly when they know damn well they just copied and pasted and put a title on it. In fact, they probably like asked the the AI they was using for the best title and they just went with that. They didn't put any actual creativity or brain power into making it theirs. They didn't use the AI as a way to do research like like they're doing where they made this amazing video probably with this one literally that we're watching right now also using AI to find different um examples of what they're talking about the different statistics that they've been quoting and everything like that but then they fact check it then they make sure everything is actually correct but they are the exception They're not the rule.

33:22Most people will not do that. Especially when they look at this as just a comeup story, man. What? Everybody's just like a creator nowadays. Everybody's just making content. Well, it's fine if you want to do that. And it comes from a place of you wanting to do that. And it's, you know, authenticity and whatever the It's cool. Awesome. do you. But you wanting to do it just because you see dollar signs and you think that attention will lead to all of your wildest dreams and riches coming true, then not cool. Probably should just go do something else. But people don't care about what they're putting out to society. People don't care about what's being put on the shelves of human information because honestly, I don't think it's out of some like ill intent trying to be bad people or villains or whatever the they they just don't care.

34:26I'm living it today, bro. I'm just trying to get mine where I can. I'm not thinking 10 moves ahead. I'm not thinking about generations to come. I'm not thinking about how I'm negatively contributing to the downfall of not just the internet, but what people can trust and how people can actually parse through the information that we have out there. And a part of me a part of me gets negative because I feel like some of it is intentional. You know, we as a as people got so much power once we started being able to use the internet, being able to put all of our voices collectively as one. And yes, I know there's so much downfalls to social media and how people use it and all that. There's always trade-offs. Like no matter what you do, there's always going to be a trade-off.

35:22But the power that we gain from the internet, from being able to actually, you know, look things up and not feel like we're out of hope because we don't know somebody that knows how to fix whatever issue that we're dealing with or how to whatever. There's so many businesses that have been created on the back of the internet. There's so much trust that was formed on the internet. And yes, there's bad that goes on, but there was still a decent balance where it wasn't 50/50. 50% bots and 37% out of out of out of that 50 is is bad intention people.

36:18That's wild. That's that's wild because the ones that are successful at it, they're going to be the ones that have the money to continue to multiply the amount of bots that they put out there, continue to double down on it. And these they're not they're not always just like duh like I'm just a criminal. I don't know. I just want your money. No. A lot of these people are smart. or they would have done great things if they decided to put their talents to use anywhere else, but they decided to, you know, steal from people, put out bad information and viruses and whatever the people like that do, you know, just the internet is The internet is not going to have the power that it once had.

37:22We are going to lose the power of having information if most of our information is just I mean, what happens to us as a species? And yeah, you be like, well, what does it really matter if like certain facts aren't right? I was like, does it really help to know, you know, certain things about our brown dwarf star or whatever the he was talking about? I mean, yeah, it does. Cuz if it's with that, then it's with anything. And if it's with anything, then it's with everything. So yeah, I'd say it matters. It doesn't change a thing, but it matters.

38:20Of scientific papers published before and after the rise of large language models. They found an abrupt and sharp increase in the frequency of words that AIs like to use. So it seems clear that now a significant portion of papers have been at least assisted by AI, usually without acknowledgement. And just in July 2025, it was discovered that a number of researchers had started to sneak hidden messages into their papers in white text or too small for the human eye. They prompted AIs to review them positively and not point out flaws. As more and more people are using AI carelessly, the library of human knowledge is getting less and less reliable. Which brings us to the last part. How are we using AI? And will KZKart survive the AI slop age? Will AI slop kills?

39:12Bro, you know how sad that is. So that's how that's how they're like catching people now. like like as a teacher, I guess, for your students, putting hidden messages into the the questions, I guess, knowing that people would just copy and paste that and then cuz you'd have to copy and paste the question into the prompt box and then take your prompt and then just copy and paste that and then literally not even read what you just copied and pasted. You know how sad that is? Yeah, that's good. That's good, bro. Like, damn. You didn't catch it. You just turned in your paper. What you mean? Bro, they put they put a hidden message in there.

40:11You you a whole paragraph was just talking about some And that's the that's the canary in the coal mine, man. and we we're caught. They're on to us. They know we're using AI to just copy and paste this I think that's stupid though to uh obviously don't just copy and paste. That's stupid. But it's stupid to tell students that are coming up right now to not use AI. You know what I mean? do your math problems, but don't use a calculator. It's like, you do your math problems without a calculator. I see you over there gray and You You know what I mean? You're using using your damn cheat sheet. You got your answer book. What did you do? Did you sit there? I wonder I wonder.

41:08Did you just copy and paste? Did you sit there and by hand make sure every single math equation was correct? No. Why are we not teaching students to do realistically? Like everybody uses AI as a tool at least, right? At least they will. If you're not, you will. Or you'll get lost. You'll get forgotten. But no, we want to we want to say no, you're not allowed to use it. Then they're just going to cheat with it. And then once they become adults, they'll have to figure out how to use it. Anyways, I don't It's just stupid. But the school system in general a whole another video cuz bro, they get me they get me wound up like

42:01And artists on the internet. There's only one truly valuable resource, human attention. If current trends continue, it's not that far-fetched that cheap slop content, stuff just good enough, will soak up the majority of human attention. It could make us dumber, less informed, our attention spans even worse, increase political divides, and make us neglect real human interaction. If AI eats the majority of the attention pie, channels like ours will become unfeasible or forced to downsize or use AI themselves to be able to compete. We don't want to play this game.

42:37This digital calendar lightening my mental is worth every penny. I wasn't fully convinced the skylight calendar would be

42:44How well. That's um Well, that's that's not true. Obviously, not to push back. Curts Kurt Curts got damn it. See, this is what I'm talking about. I can't I won't I can't remember that Curts got Either way, um you're already using AI. What you talking about? Before she used AI to compete, you're already doing that to research all of your your different videos. You just said that yourself. And that's okay. That's okay. I I use it, too. That's like not me pointing fingers like, "Ha, na na and boo boo sticky head and doodoo." No. No. That's like saying this game that people are going to say they want to refuse to play, they're going to play it. You know how long people try to write checks at the grocery grocery store or whatever? What do you mean we don't take checks?

43:42What do you mean, ma'am? We don't take checks anymore. I got to swipe my card. Ma'am, you can just tap it. Things have changed. You can use your phone what you want to do. Yeah. So things things are going to continue to evolve. Sometimes it's in the negative direction and unfortunately it still means that we can't we can't do about it. But using AI as a tool, I don't see I don't see any problem with it whatsoever. using it as a way to just do everything for you without even checking it. I mean, obviously, you're going to you're going to just be a part of that AI garbage that we was talking about.

44:40We use AI like the align tool in Adobe Illustrator. If you have a bunch of boxes and you want to line them up, you can do this manually one by one. Or you can just select them, click align, and have them perfectly aligned in an instant.

44:55Oh, see, he was saying, "My bad, bro. My bad." See, he was he said the same thing like we're using AI, but it's as a tool. That's exactly Okay, we're saying the same My bad, bro. Carry on.

45:07It's the same with AI programming tools for animation or using it as a faster Google alternative. Hey,

45:13AI is a helpful tool, but the creativity and integrity is still ours. So, dear internet, here is what we're offering to you. KZKart is made by humans for humans, and it will remain that way. We'll produce wellressearched content and invest a lot of time and our human creativity in our illustrations and animations. Put our create

45:37Okay. Yeah, shameless plug. Um, just want to continue to play that a little bit cuz uh, shout out to them for that uh, fire ass uh, video. That was cool. Yeah, man. I uh, hey guys. How to how to end this? How do you end this? We're We're doomed. We're It's over. We going we going to cut this, right? Cut this be fine. AI slop versus the internet. Unfortunately, it's not really AI slop's fault, if that makes sense. It's humans doing what humans do, unraveling the same systems that help them up.

46:38But it's going to be okay. There's going to be something else after. There's going to be a rainbow at the end of the storm, light at the end of the tunnel, all that good right?
