No idea why people post YT videos instead of articles. Brad McChad here waffling for seven minutes to supply enough information for a 30 second paragraph -
AI summary -
Tech reviewer Brad discusses the mass migration of artists from Instagram to the new social network Cara. With over half a million new users in just a few days, Cara offers artists protection for their work from being used in AI models and community-vouched portfolio accounts that filter out AI art. Instagram, on the other hand, has been losing favor due to decreased algorithm traction, drops in followers and engagement, and a focus on viral content. The final straw came when Instagram started allowing users to opt out of their AI training models, leaving artists feeling disregarded. Cara, self-funded by its creator Jinga Zang, provides a refreshing alternative to Instagram, with potential to operate as a normal business without investor pressure. The controversy surrounding Meta (formerly Facebook) and its AI models, which led to a mass exodus of artists, was also discussed, with concerns over users’ ability to opt out of having their work used in these models. Despite the challenges Cara faces as a new social network, the speaker expresses support for the platform and encourages viewers to check it out.
Well, the main thing from Brad is reviewing tech for artists and showing how the product is used, so video makes sense. Videos like this are not that usual.
I just post wherever I see it first. I did actually search for articles about this one cause I know people prefer it, but it saw no indication in mainstream tech sites. It seems to have flown under the radar.

Thank you for this. It’s astounding to me that somehow we have the attention span for a 7 minute video but not a thirty second article.
This is a great tool -

Not as much of a tool as Brad McChad tho mind
I didn’t realize that was a real name, I thought you were just making fun of the guy
I wouldn’t make fun of Brad
But his brother Jihad however…
With a name like Brad McChad you gotta blame the parents. It’s like naming a kid Jeeves, you’ve almost put their life on rails.
I knew a guy called Willy Dick once. And this time I’m not joking
Totally agree, and still chuckle at the fact that it’s an AI summary of a video about how artists are leaving a platform due to AI.
🤌

If I can listen to a human-narrated, 8-minute info dump passively, I’ll chose that over 30s of reading “AI-summarised” wall of text any time.
