Submission + - Does AI really exist? If so, is it in charge of YouTube? 1

I know some people have accents that are a little hard to understand, but the YouTube process for generating captions is about 20 years behind the rest of the planet — particularly in failing to recognise the context of videos and adapting its dictionary accordingly — you would thing that Russian and Ukrainian names and places would be recognised in videos about ware in Ukraine, even (especially) if not in British football chants.
I was led to believe there was a thing called AI — I can believe the Artificial part, but Intelligence? Not to much!

My suspicion (Score:2)
My suspicion is that YouTube is entirely managed by AI bots and that there are only developers there to bang out new features that more or less annoy users.
No humans exists when it comes to support, you are just a number that generate revenue.
In order to avoid legal trouble they ban all kinds of "dangerous" speech except for a select few high profile users that are allowed some more room.
