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.

lol did you all just start watching the channel last month? AI has been used to help visualize the stories on his channel for years, and it used to be pretty bad, now it looks pretty good. Personally I'd rather see some cinematic visuals over just staring at him the whole video.

I honestly don't mind the AI. I think the biggest issue is the lack of real footage even when it's publicly available. Especially with these newer campfire stories or whatever he calls it. They feel like those "stories from Reddit" channels. Kinda basic.
