    I assume this is targeted at things like the AI voiceovers reading random reddit stories or comments alongside generic video content, probably also AI generated.

      I fucking hate those videos, I’m so bad at recognising them from thumbnail and title alone and always get irrationally angry whenever I stumble into starting to watch one.

          You’re lucky. It’s so annoying. Especially when it feels like one someone actually worked on but didn’t want to read themself. I don’t care how much time you put into writing and editing if I have to hear it through a robot voice. I’d rather hear a shitty mic/thick accent, or whatever else is stopping them from just recording the lines.

            I totally agree. That default robot voice on Instagram is one of the most grating things I’ve ever heard. It’s total uncanny valley and I prefer the so-bad-its-funny older ones.
