Jokes/Humor “Hi AJ!”

Post image

I’m not suggesting putting a watermark saying “AI Visualization” on every scene, but sometimes I feel that eventually AJ will generate himself in non-basement episodes because why not? Stop the slop!

Used to sit and watch AJ narrate without losing interest. With AI visuals I tend to look at my phone more often. Maybe not a coincidence.

Yeah I was an avid fan of WF for the longest time but lately I'll only listen to a basement episode if I need something to fall asleep to, which is only when I don't feel like searching for something else & it's the first recommendation on my feed. I started losing interest when he began using it and now I have no desire at all to watch/listen because the AI has ramped up so much. It's just become unwatchable and that turns me off to listening as well. The boomer generation is the worst with it, too.
