YouTube is now using AI to alter people's videos without permission. (There are threads about this at https://mastodon.content.town/@operationpuppet/115640694705318541 & https://mastodon.nzoss.nz/@strypey/115598837629003478 etc)
This is really disturbing and dangerous. It's more insidious than censorship because viewers cannot tell a video has been altered.
If you post to YouTube, I'd strongly recommend you start ALSO posting to PeerTube, either on your own server or a public server. There's a complete guide here:

Aji Rojo jam! It ended up having a lot of red bell pepper because the aji peppers aren't very juicy. Either way, it tastes delicious and the leftovers in the pan are already setting. #food #chiles #peppers #preserving #cooking

"The short version is that YouTube used AI to 'enhance' the videos of Rick Beato and Rhett Shull. YouTube used an AI smoothing filter that made the videos look like they were AI generated, and didn’t tell Beato, Shull, or their viewers that they were doing it. They only admitted to it after the two made videos proving it happened, later claiming it was only a 'limited test'.”

"Their excuses are irrelevant. They’ve opened Pandora’s box; they’ve told the world that they can and will edit videos after they’ve been uploaded, and will not tell creators or viewers. You can’t trust anything you see anymore, even from creators who adamantly do not use AI. Sure, it’s 'just' an AI smoother today, but tomorrow they could put an ad straight in the video, or remove something they don’t like."

Just heard from someone who works at Wowburger that the company takes any gratuity you leave on the payment machines.
So, if this is true, it’s illegal in Ireland. Not to mention, a dick move regardless.
Anyone in Ireland know the Wowburger folks and/or where I can lodge a complaint about this?

When billionaires can't make enough money from consumers anymore, they go for government contracts.
This is how they continue to get even richer on your money, but without your consent.
Tell your government loudly that you want none of this.
See also Micron / Crucial for a timely example of this very phenomenon 😐
