> Youtube, via Gemini, is (allegedly) slurping the content of Jeff's videos for the purposes of training their AI models

If by "allegedly" you mean that google admitted it

> Google models may be trained on some YouTube content, but always in accordance with our agreement with YouTube creators (https://techcrunch.com/2024/05/14/google-veo-a-serious-swing...)

Where "agreement" likely means "you accepted some tos 15 years ago so shut up".

> the video has been pulled for (allegedly) promoting copyright infringement

the irony...



> Where "agreement" likely means "you accepted some tos 15 years ago so shut up".

I am not a content creator or business on yt but i am 99.9% certain as soon as you enter your business credentials to make money they pretty much are allowed to do as they please and change the terms without notice (to which you must agree). And because as pointed out into the article, yt is a monopoly in all but name you have to agree to it as there are no viable alternatives.
