They are just trying to increase the compression, less details, less bandwidth. People blow it out of proportions with their “viral” BS and click bait titles.

Yes, they are overdoing it a little and clearly over compressing, but I bet 99% of people wouldn’t tell on their tiny phone screen while walking and watching video

I hear you but me personally, I pretty much can tell if I'm watching AI generated content or original content. Blurring that line by editing content without even asking the creators is just terrible. At one point we wont know the difference and unless you're already following a creator you'll be always asking yourself if that content is real or just a stupid prompt.

They don’t edit, they apply aggressive quantization and remove a lot of details. AI is an overloaded term, it’s a simple ML model that decides bitrate and other crap to minimize the size. Nothing is edited, it’s economically infeasible and unprofitable to them.

Click batty titles are economically profitable for all the wannabe influencers that are making shit up to get clicks

Did you watch the video? I've been watching some of the videos he referenced as well and they just look really really bad in comparison to the same videos on other platforms.

Yes, YT has fucked up in compression department, I am aware and I hate it too. My point is that misuse of words and deliberately misleading audience to get views is nonsense and dishonest.

Yes, some comprehension not done right can make videos look edited and horrible, that is a well known fact in the codecs dev community. There are tons of materials about that if you look
