The post asks whether social platforms are actively shadow-banning or deleting AI videos.
It points to YouTube’s tighter enforcement of its “inauthentic and repetitious content” rules and says several large channels built on mass-produced synthetic media — including fake movie trailers and automated slideshow videos reading articles — have been removed. The core issue is platform enforcement against AI-generated content, not the content itself.
