What's the point of using videos like this if it's a risk to reputation just to use them?

Will smith punched a dude on stage, a comedian. I think you are putting a lot on a cage concept with a scatter plot of outliers.

You actually need a reputation of merit for there to be risk. Hes a rapper, not a saint or Ethicist.

“AI” editing is one thing

The upscaling seems to be Google doing it without permission of the original uploader. Google however are unaccountable, you can’t complain otherwise you’ll be exiled

Vote with wallet etc /s

I wonder if it had the same bad effect on other content (surely they tested it first and thought it would be useful!). Maybe double AI reinforces itself somehow?
