This is the best summary I could come up with:

AI scammers are using generative tools to churn out bizarre and nonsensical YouTube kids' videos, a troubling Wired report reveals.

The videos are often created in a style akin to that of the addictive hit YouTube and Netflix show Cocomelon, and are very rarely marked as AI-generated.

And as Wired notes, given the ubiquity and style of the content, a busy parent might not bat an eye if this AI-spun mush — much of which is already garnering millions of views and subscribers on YouTube — were playing in the background.

It's also deeply unlikely that any of these mass-produced AI videos are being pushed out in consultation with childhood development experts, and if the goal is to make money through unmarked AI-generated fever dreams designed for consumption by media-illiterate toddlers, the "we're helping them learn!"

Per Wired, researchers like Tufts University neuroscientist Eric Hoel are concerned about how this bleak combination of garbled AI content and prolonged screentime will ultimately impact today's kids.

"All around the nation there are toddlers plunked down in front of iPads being subjected to synthetic runoff," the scientist recently wrote on his Substack, The Intrinsic Perspective.
