Is that of newly uploaded content or overall? Because the latter is terrifying considering YouTube is 20+ years of content.

I mean if you go to obscuretube or whatevs most vids are juat people doing random atuff so slightly surprising too. Guess most videos are actuallt just hidden tho... wonder how many are private.

Also shorts probably make up almost all of the "ai slop".

Even considering that it doesn't really stop being surprising I guess.
