This makes sense. Kurzgesagt makes low quality content that’s poorly researched and has AI overdub. It’s a channel funded partly by a Bill Gates subsidiary, and has to do propaganda for them to meet its budget requirements. To say, “we established ourselves early” as an excuse is dumb. If we’re banning AI slop, then they should be banned.
