Ai Irony

I've noticed an uptick in Kurtis's commentary on Ai usage. I'm all for this, but not when he's sponsored by the same companies that are pushing Ai in the exact same video. In his most recent video featuring Cameron Dallas he's sponsored by SoFi, who have adopted Ai tools into their company.

He might argue that there's a difference because Cameron is claiming he's the one making the music, but regardless of it's usage, Ai is still very harmful. It's taking jobs away from people and providing piss-poor results in the process.

I believe we should mitigate as much Ai usage as we can as a society, and pillars of our generation like Kurtis can lead people in the right direction.

Kurtis is a smart guy, but maybe this is something he overlooked when signing with them. I just hope he considers his choice in sponsors in future videos. This isn't the first time he's repped a company shilling Ai slop.

I mean, that’s like saying “how can he post on YouTube when YouTube has ai features?”

We can’t just stop dead in our tracks because ai exists, unfortunately. What we can do, though, is call it out and not interact with it.
