Signals to me that maybe the creator isn’t comfortable with their voice or maybe they can’t speak or have a stutter, but they still have something to say.
Recognising the “AI voice” isn’t just the voice. It’s also the clearly “written by AI” circuitous script that keeps talking without saying anything and non-stop clickbait “but wait until you find out what the answer is” crap.
The other type of AI voice is people just stealing Reddit stories and putting them to AI. Also lame. I want my stories narrated with human emotion. The point of stories isn’t to transfer knowledge, it’s an art form, I don’t need shitty robot emotions thank you very much.
So no, the use case for AI voice is very narrow. Some of my favorite YouTubers use text narration. Maybe they don’t like their voice, or speak a different language, I don’t know, I’ve literally never heard them. It doesn’t stop them in the least from showing me amazing things. They don’t need to resort to polluting their video with the lowest garbage idea humans have created so far.
I’d like to see a video that is improved by the use of any AI.
You’ve given a lot more context and use cases here that you oppose and I would agree with them for the most part, but I would push back on the people using text narration switching to an AI voice as a natural progression as the tool becomes more useful.
As for seeing a video that has been improved by AI I would hazard a guess you’re already watching them, if you think creators are not using LLMs to improve their workflow and efficiency then you’d be mistaken.
I can’t comment on any specifics but our company of software engineers have saved that many man hours from LLM integration, as a tool not just write code for us, that me and my 5 colleagues all got a pay rise and a reduction of weekly hours at the same time. So based on this I would assume that if used correctly and responsibly I don’t see why people in other industries can’t use the tool for similar benefits.

Because it’s a sign to me that the content creator is willing to take shortcuts and be lazy. In which case I take the shortcut to being too lazy to watch their “content”.
I like to approach things in life with positive intent, so seeing a video with an AI voice to me would make me assume that perhaps they don’t have a great voice or that they have a stammer so so an Ai voice allows them to still make content they want to.
I find that life is a lot better if you assume the best in people rather than assume the worse. And I can tell you that since I’ve taken this approach I’m a much happier person and it’s extremely rare that I give positive intent to someone with bad intentions so worth it for less stress and worrying about things all the time.
Do you think the same of channels that pay someone else to be the face of the channel or is it just Ai voices you have issue with?
But why?
Like sure some of the voices are not great but the words being said are the thing I’m interested in and not the person / machine saying the words.
Each to their own and all that, I’m just curious as to why you just stop watching something you were seemingly enjoying.
If nobody bothered to make it why should anybody bother to watch it?

Because it signal to me that the content is low quality and untrustworthy
