YouTube has recently taken significant action against AI-generated content by deleting 16 of its most popular AI-driven channels, as reported by the Times of India and BOL News. These channels, including CuentosFacianantes and Imperio de Jesus, collectively amassed over 35 million subscribers and nearly 4.7 billion views, generating close to $10 million in annual revenue. The decision is part of YouTube's ongoing efforts to improve content quality on the platform, as these channels were criticized for producing low-quality, repetitive videos designed to attract views. According to the Times of India, this purge began in November 2025, indicating a sustained effort by YouTube to address the issue of AI-generated 'slop' content, which has been described as overwhelming the platform and detracting from genuine human creators.
