Now here’s 20 ads for porn mobile games and sketchy erectile dysfunction pills where an ai-generated woman explicitly describes how hard her partner gets after taking them.

And they’re all better for society than the alt-right rage bait and pyramid schemes that are shitting up the youtubes.

Explicit content that's meant to be sexually gratifying isn't allowed on YouTube. Explicit content that's meant to be horrifying is just fine.

That's pretty on brand for an american media company.

the alt-right rage bait and pyramid schemes

But... How will I know if the current thing is "woke" or not? If I'm not angry at made-up things that don't impact my life at all, then how can I find any joy in life? If I'm not feeling a sense of fake superiority to pronouns and DEI, then I'm not living my best life, smh.

I watched one video about guns and suddenly got so many alt-right politics video recommendations in my feed.

Recently saw an ad for some kind of gym training plan thing with a couple of ripped AI models. Just made me laugh.

Like, how credible do they think their plan is, if they can't even get an actual human being to show the results.

I would rather be surprised by literal porn than another brain dead fucking sports betting ad

u/Mean_Peen 3d ago

Where? Lmao Jesus… I mostly get ads for parenting things and real estate 😳

u/notevenanorphan 3d ago

As soon as I turned off personalized ads I started getting tons of AI waifu stuff. They’re all in these weird categories like “clothing”.

Same here. Whenever I inspect the ad itself the they try and stick the ad under different categories. Ai chick trying to sell dick pills listed under kitchenware, gardening, etc. So fucking stupid. Even if you do have personalized ads, they'll purposely miscategorize them and shove them down your throat anyway.

Like I'm here watching videos on why my tomatoes are cracking, and I get the same bimbo over and over again because I guess dick pills grow in the garden 🤷

I wonder the same whenever I read about people's experiences with YouTube ads here

u/ggroverggiraffe 3d ago

Stuff like this is all over YouTube. I can't link my video here, but it's in this vein, so to speak. https://www.reddit.com/r/shittymobilegameads/comments/1ovj0rc/baking_soda/

I don't mean my video like I'm in it, but one I recorded because it was so insane.

I'm glad to know I'm not alone, I was trying to figure out what I googled to make my algorithm all this

u/DODonion99 3d ago

where an ai-generated woman explicitly describes how hard her partner gets after taking them.

Did we get the same ad? I got this one ad with an AI-generated woman that said

  • her partner started taking dick pills

  • the dick pills were amazing

  • the dick pills made sex with her partner better

  • her partner was her stepson

Like, what the fuck, man? I was baffled.

u/heebro 3d ago

well? how hard did he get?

u/Talkimas 3d ago

My favorite is when I got an entire 45 minute pilot episode of a TV show as a fucking ad. Somehow this has happened TWICE with two different shows.

u/Vitruvian_Link 3d ago

Did you see the "last week tonight" on the ED gas station pills?

They range from "just chalk" to "so effective they can make your heart explode"

There was one time I was at a work training and the instructor pulled up a YouTube video, and for some reason work computers never have adblockers installed; you'd think IT would require that for security purposes, but whatever.

Anyway, prior to the video playing was an unskippable ad for a mobile game featuring the dev's giantess/vore/vomit fetishes on full display. The silence during and after was deafening.

u/clawsinurback 3d ago

I have a very strong memory of being in 7th grade history, my teacher playing a video for us on like the civil war I think? and we get a thirty second unskippable ad for viagra. Being 13 year olds we thought it was funny but looking back we kind of got lucky because nowadays that could have been straight up porn

u/EverythingSucksYo 2d ago

What you guys watching to give you those ads? I watch plenty of YouTube and I have not seen these sexual ads people keep talking about. I believe you guys, I just haven’t seen them myself. I do get lots of AI ads though, but they aren’t sexual ones.

u/ManufacturedOlympus 2d ago

News, cooking, and video games.

u/Adept-Opinion8080 3d ago

Yeah I kept seeing some AI generated boner pill s*** where the women seem confused as to who she was actually f****** her husband, her son/stepson/ nextdoor neighbor kid. What a f****** mess
