Had to do this for my channel recently, too :(

I'd never seen it in the wild, so for anyone else who hasn't had the pleasure: YT is beginning to auto-enable AI voice "translations" of people's videos, and REPLACE the original voice with a flawed version, without warning viewers about it at all. Creators may only find out when viewers have already been driven away.

Not enough expletives in all the languages in all the world to describe how I feel about this... https://chaos.social/@foosel/115411001604474157

Screenshot from YouTube's channel settings showing the mentioned advanced settings of the upload defaults. After scrolling down you can find "Allow automatic dubbing" that you can uncheck.

Attached: 1 image Just received an email from YouTube that they'll soon enable autodubbing on the OctoPrint channel for new and soon also old videos. Hell no, every time I run into this AI shit when watching YouTube I just want to scream, it's THAT bad. Thankfully, there's a way to opt-out, and I just did that. And if you upload stuff to YouTube, for the love of all that is holy, PLEASE disable that too! Uncheck Channel Settings > Upload defaults > Advanced Settings > Automatic dubbing
