A makeup influencer I follow noticed youtube and instagram are automatically adding filters to his face without permission to his videos. If his content was about lip makeup they make his lips enormous and if it was about eye makeup the filters make his eyes gigantic. They're having AI detecting the type of content and automatically applying filters.

The screenshots/videos of them doing it are pretty wild, and insane they are editing creators' uploads without consent!

This is an experiment in data compression.

A legal experiment for sure. Hope everyone involved can clear their schedules for hearings in multiple jurisdictions for a few years.

As soon as people start paying Google for the 30,000 hours of video uploaded every hour (2022 figure), then they can dictate what forms of compression and lossiness Google uses to save money.

That doesn't include all of the transcoding and alternate formats stored, either.

People signing up to YouTube agree to Google's ToS.

Google doesn't even say they'll keep your videos. They reserve the right to delete them, transcode them, degrade them, use them in AI training, etc.

It's a free service.

None of which overrides what the law says or can do.

I've paid for it. Don't anymore, in large part because of crap like this reducing content quality.
