Given how harder it's becoming to tell apart AI slop from something made by a human (videos, photos, text), and how much scammers and other criminals are piling up on the tech, I'm thinking this will be the silver lining, making some people pay more attention to real life and finally accept the maxim "Don't believe everything you see on the internet"

I have no issue filtering. Everyone I watch regularly has a minimum of a masters degree in their respective edutainment field. I don't watch anything packaged by the big 6 or any algorithm. And I run my own dialed AI stuff for many tasks I personally find useful.

AI is not the problem friend. The problem is cultural. Tools are not the problems. The people that use them are.

The world will continue to specialize. As it does, the range of available content will grow as will the difficulty in finding your niche. Most places cater to the lowest common denominator. Perhaps you've found yourself some places where it is time to move on or devolve along with them.
