AI assistance in coding or accessibility is not enshittification.

Isn't like most development partially AI these days? Even Linux development. If the platform itself isn't going AI, I don't really see an issue here.

I don't really think a blanket prohibition on anything AI related is useful. This doesn't really ring like anything problematic.

This sounds completely benign. Jumping ship for stuff like this is absurd.

Couldn't really find what they are doing with AI. There are acceptable uses so, would prefer to know before going either way.

Very true. And it's very worrying that so much of global online business is literally dependent of Googles good will.

True, but a platform where your income is dependent on an ever changing algorithm is not something a business can handle. Changes like that will drive away major channels and make them start to look for alternatives.

Not impossible. The best revenue for Google would be if they could ai generate all the content themselves.

That clarifies it, so Anthropic kinda chickened out and considered it safer to make this a cost of doing business thing.

That also wouldn't have a drastic immediate effect. On the long term this is likely to eat some views of long form content.

Yes, but even if they hid everything I have from teens and suspended teens, the drop would be way less. And that's why I think they are wrong about the reason for the drop.

They're wrong, my channel has under 4% viewers in the up to 18 year segment, this effect is way bigger than if I lost then completely. Also my channel features no swearing or inappropriate content so, it should not affect it at all if this was the case.
