YouTube Announces New Tools to Flood Its Platform With AI-Generated Slop

There’s also a new ‘YouTube Create’ for editing video on the go, but the headline ‘Dream Screen’ AI video backgrounds already look like hell.

The other announcement from Thursday’s event is much more substantial, at least for the amateur video crowd. Google is planning to release its own, freemobile app that offers some simplified video editing tools on the go. Users can upload video clips from their phones and the app offers some simplified trimming, captioning, voice-over, and audio cleanup tools. There’s also a library of filters, effects, transitions, and royalty-free music.

YouTube execs said the company will start “testing” Dream Screen later this year and it should roll out early next year. That leaves some time for Google to keep working on its text-to-video capabilities, but Google’s focus on being first in the AI rat race has only helped show just how limited, and problematic, generative AI currently is. MicrosoftYouTube claimed Shorts currently has over 70 billion daily views—up from 50 billion in January this year—and 2 billion monthly active users.
