Learning Ai for the regular people

@retro_dodo Best retro handheld is for sure the GBA. Has such a good lineup of games, in particular golden sun

[Matt’s Ai Lab @MattsAiLab]

@starter_story Curious what it means in that image when it says position 1. I was assuming it ranked number 1 on google but what am I missing? When searching "book a magician" on google I don't see the website after scrolling multiple pages.

@ZacksJerryRig @elonmusk Used to enjoy watching your YouTube channel on showing the durability of phones but hearing your endless comments always being negative towards Elon gets really tiring. Soooo much negativity

[Matt’s Ai Lab @MattsAiLab]

@Notwokenow Ai has gotten good, look at how many people thinking this is real

[Matt’s Ai Lab @MattsAiLab]

VR seems to be doing a bit better than Nintendo systems… also $229 for a switch lite? Seriously? That is ridiculous

[Matt’s Ai Lab @MattsAiLab]

The algorithm just got so much better.

[Matt’s Ai Lab @MattsAiLab]

Switch 2 sales can’t be that good. I’ve never seen them have so much stock of a Nintendo console.

This was at a Walmart tonight just a week before Christmas.

Thoughts on why there are so many?

[Matt’s Ai Lab @MattsAiLab]

@16bitnostalgia StarCraft had some amazing music

[Matt’s Ai Lab @MattsAiLab]

I’ll start: “Son of a submariner”

[Matt’s Ai Lab @MattsAiLab]

What's a video game quote so universally known that the game can be represented by that single phrase?

[Matt’s Ai Lab @MattsAiLab]

@elonmusk @grok why is the replacement level 2.1 instead of 2?

[Matt’s Ai Lab @MattsAiLab]

Here’s another one. YouTube Ai moderation is way out of control.

[Matt’s Ai Lab @MattsAiLab]

This is happening more and more. YouTube needs to figure this out.

Why would someone new ever spend years of hard work and effort to grow an audience for it to be wiped away in an instant.

They will lose a lot of the new generation if this becomes the norm and they will go to other platforms if this gets worse.

[Dave Nick @iamdavenick]

Wow... I lost 1,000,000 subscribers.

And all my childhood videos.

AI moderation is out of control @YouTube

Their AI bot claims I violated "dangerous content policy" by claiming "guaranteed returns" or promoting a pyramid scheme.

I've never done any of that and can prove endlessly.

All I did was document trying and testing online businesses since 13 years old.

- I have never promoted scams.
- I have never put my community at danger.
- I have never violated terms intentionally, and when AI flagged my content, I corrected immediately.

If sharing business experience and lessons was so 'dangerous', then why did over 1,000,000 subscribe?

Why did over 400K people return every month to watch AGAIN?

I was getting thousands of messages a week from people who found my free content useful.

Knowing I've done nothing wrong, I just thought I'll appeal, they'll see AI made a mistake, and my life's work will be given back to me.

I appealed multiple times, and every time I did, I just got a generic response that they won't return my channel.

We had 14 full time employees who depended on this channel to feed their families.

So YouTube's AI response not only affects me, but affects our team, and millions of people whose lives were positively impacted by this channel.

I have been in this space since 2011, and it's heartbreaking to witness AI police bully the whole @YouTubeCreators community.

Over a decade of sweat and tears gone in an instant.

And I am not the only one that got unfairly removed.

Incompetence of AI moderation has financially and emotionally damaged millions of creators.

I'm not making this post to beg for sympathy, but as a warning to all creators.

If AI can do this to me with over a decade of content and a community of 1,000,000+ people...

Then no one is safe anymore.

So what can you do?

1) Own your audience.

Use YouTube to get discovered, and funnel that audience to a community, group, or email list outside.

2) Retweet this.

If we spread awareness far enough, more people will learn about AI police brutality on YouTube.

3) If you’ve had a similar experience, reply. I’m collecting stories.

4) Keep serving your community.

Got wrongfully removed? Okay, it's not fair, but you have to keep going.

Your audience went to you for a reason. They trust you and you should never let them down.

So find strength to rebuild from scratch.

It might take a year, 5 or even 10, but time will pass anyways.

And you only lose if you stop playing.

Lots of love,
- Dave🫶🏻

@ornery_hominid @clemmygames Super Nintendo

[Matt’s Ai Lab @MattsAiLab]

@evolvee33 Sadly I do agree with this

[Matt’s Ai Lab @MattsAiLab]

I tried to recreate old style ads for thumbnails with Ai and it was always just slightly off. But with Gemini 3 it seriously gets it right every single time.

What a time to be alive

[Matt’s Ai Lab @MattsAiLab]

I’m continually amazed at how good nano banana pro 🍌 images are.

[Matt’s Ai Lab @MattsAiLab]

@ornery_hominid @clemmygames Doesn’t exist yet

[Matt’s Ai Lab @MattsAiLab]

@elonmusk @grok @LeagueOfLegends You’re always coming up with such novel and crazy ideas haha
