one big, big, big, big problem:
this speech never, ever happened


the uploader says as much in the description on the actual video page on YouTube, and right here in the thumbnail for your embed on SW it blares "Altered or synthetic content"

try Googling any quote from this "speech"

this is a fake AI-generated AI slop video
you need to go back to that channel and block it, after reporting that crap as spam

this shit is becoming an epidemic on YouTube



YouTube was never a recommended resource for news, politics or history even before now, but this AI scourge is making it even more of a do-not-consult and do-not-share news resource

even a lot of the music on YouTube now is not even real

@ThirstenHowl Yes. It was clearly an AI speech, using his voice. I spotted that quickly. But it doesnt make him wrong. Just "not him"..😷
It is wrong!

If these are thoughts one wants to convey, just write them down here yourself, under your own screen name, and don't attribute them to anyone else.

Then we can all fairly agree or disagree with the words on their own merits

Doing it the way the OP has chosen only creates a distraction from any thoughts the OP wanted to convey.

Aside from the complete lack of authenticity, there's also the whole glaringly negative cumulative environmental footprint of generating pointless AI videos, music, images and text. Creators of such should be publicly caned for just that aspect alone, to reinforce the teaching moment.

This is as shady as the pre-AI scourge of fake quotes in general .... and when anyone would get caught passing one along, they offered the same defense as you ... "well it doesn't make it not true" ... and it doesn't give your thoughts any more credence of validity to stuff them into the mouths of famous people who never said them either!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If anything, it only undermines your own credibility from that point forward, with anything you ever share thereafter.

Share your own thoughts in your own words, stop relying on famous people to back up what you believe.

And in this particular instance, what a choice of famous mouth in which to stuff the words, in this "Epstein files" moment. Even if Bill never actually did anything other than just be in proximity to an infamous sexual predator, you've already lost half of your audience there just through basic guilt by association which most people too easily fall back on due to lack of critical thinking skills.

@ThirstenHowl You may have a point. However. It does appear there was no attempt to deceive. And it is a way of insuring more attention is paid by more people. So I can see why it was done this way. One of my favourite You Tubers is an extremely eloquent Orangutan. Once you develop an ear for the style, its simple enough to spot a fake..😷
