There’s a term in art called “authorial control.” Roger Ebert used the term to attack video games as art, saying they lacked “authorial control” and hence invalid for art.

The claim I hear in this is the AI taking away the control of the author. Yes, videos are edited, but there’s a bunch of choices made in that process. If some robot came in & started mucking around with my edits or lighting, especially without my knowledge, that’s a major red flag. YT, as a platform, already has enough problems. Invisible robots “enhancing” videos is perhaps one of the worst features they can add. Unwanted help is not help.

I feel like the Third Amendment will be tested soon…

Somewhat irrelevant: omg, this is peak “corporate art sucks.” It’s like corporate art combined with fascist content, more than usual.

Sounds like gender affirming care.

Sorry to be snide. I don’t take TRT, but everyone should be able to do this sort of stuff without judgment. You only got one life.

What the joke & structure? What’s the setup? What’s the punchline? Asking legitimately so I can hear your comedic take.
