…or you can just keep watching videos from human creators like you have done so far. If the content you’re consuming is already the kind that’s difficult to tell from AI in the first place then not much will change.
Not really? I’ve never gone to Youtube for the content it tries to shove on me on the homepage. I always went straight to the subscription page… And now on my invidious instance, that’s the primary loaded page. I still only go to “trending” and “for you” once in a blue moon.
Content discovery is indeed YouTubes only value, otherwise you’d just watch content on a better platform dedicated to the creator you wanted to watch like their patreon
Personally, I watch the channels from the creators I like and slowly grow my channels through their recommendations. My bookmark goes straight to the subscription page and have uBlock filters for all the unwanted recommendations.
I couldn’t stand having an algorithm decide what I watch.

Youtube’s only value to you is its algorithm? Man if all you do is consume what is force-fed to you… You do you, I guess. 😬

What does?
Only watching videos from creators you already watch.
