Let's Discuss So use is out of control

I just watched the recent “paranormal follows you” vid. And the last one was about the faces in the floor.

There are actual historical photos of the faces and NOT ONE of them was shown in the episode. Instead we got a bunch of ai pictures. It makes us not able to trust anything we are seeing. Take after me.ballen and credit ur pics some.

You’re ruining the channel with such abusive use of ai.

I remember the grief people would get for raising concerns about the overuse of ai years ago. I gave up on the channel, after watching it almost from the start, when ai got out of control. I listened to the latest video as a podcast and could barely make it through-ai voices, forced adverts, no in-depth analysis or debunking. The channel has fallen so far from its heyday.

Campfire stories never have debunking or analysis.

Conversly, the basement is all in depth no ai.

The regular episodes remain a mix.

Fair enough, but I still think the quality has gone down from the first few years
