There's also the on-by default, can't be disabled, auto-dubbing YouTube performs on every video that's not in the single browser's language. The dubbing quality is poor for the same reason, to intentionally expose viewers to AI content.

It's 100% a push to remove human creators from the equation entirely.

That's exactly it. All social media platforms are experimenting with replacing humans with AI.
