Breadtube if it didn't suck.

Post videos you genuinely enjoy and want to share, duh. Celebrate the diversity of interests shared by chapochatters by posting a deep dive into Venetian kelp farming, I dunno. Also media criticism, bite-sized versions of left-wing theory, all the stuff you expected. But I am curious about that kelp farming thing now that you mentioned it.

Low effort / spam videos might be removed, especially weeb content.

There is a cytube that you can paste videos into and watch with whoever happens to be around. It's open submission unless there's something important to commandeer it with at the time.

A weekly watch party happens every Saturday (Sunday down under), with video nominations Saturday-Monday, voting Monday-Thursday. See the pin for whatever stage it's currently in.

Thinking about how the average person’s reaction to AI is fear because they understand that reducing necessary labor doesn’t actually help capitalist society. It puts the masses out of work and enriches a tiny minority of capitalists. Silver lining is this can be a lever for increasing class consciousness.

Using AI to reduce labor could be awesome if we lived in a Jetsons universe where technological innovation actually benefited everyone and we decided to just work less.

I am sure governments are already using or planning to use AI video for political ends. Like why wouldn’t Israel use it to make a video of conspicuously pro-Hamas people doing something evil. Or someone posts a fake sex tape of Biden/Trump.

That definitely isn't true.

I'd also be really skeptical of this video because the tool that supposedly made these videos hasn't even been released to the public. So all of those videos are essentially marketing material and they could just be lying.

For everyone's sake I hope to hell they're lying doomjak
