The American clothing brand J. Crew is under fire after it was revealed that the company used AI to guzzle up its own aesthetic and promote ads with seemingly fake models. The images, which were published to Instagram earlier this month, don't raise immediate alarm bells. Presumed human men are pictured embodying J.

YouTube is nothing without its advertisers. The beating heart of the video platform, big box companies have been locked in a historic game of Whac-a-Mole against low-quality YouTube content, which they say leads to a lowered perception of brands when paired with their ads. In the past, these high-risk videos took the form of right-wing conspiracy theorists, medical misinformation, and child exploitation. Now, in 2025, it's AI slop. Recent reporting by The Guardian details the staggering rise

YouTube is inundated with AI-generated slop, and that’s not going to change anytime soon. Instead of cutting down on the total number of slop channels, the platform is planning to update its policies to cut out some of the worst offenders making money off “spam.” At the same time, it’s still full steam ahead adding tools to make sure your feeds are full of mass-produced brainrot. In an update to its support page posted last week, YouTube said it will modify guidelines for its Partner Program, w
