I was thinking of doing something like making a Selenium thing to upload these to Pony.Tube.

AI crap:

I oft hear about web scraping and AI, but almost always they don't mention the archival angle. If you scrape/download some many YouTube videos like Nvidia allegedly did then act all cloak-and-dagger about it then of course this lends itself to criticism. Just do the opposite of that: self-host the videos and say that you are acting as an archive for the public good. Nvidia certainly has the cash to fund a years-long service to host the terabytes or petabytes of YouTube videos that they allegedly downloaded. Or they could pay for them to be put up on Filecoin or something (torrents maybe). But instead I see another company being scummy with data. What happens with those files years from now, maybe after the AI bubble bursts? Since that trillions-of-dollars company want to save money: they either delete them or sell the files to other entities. Selling them is kinda shitty, but still better than deletions. There probably would be a buyer. (https://archive.nvidia.com/ = doesn't exist.)

But the AI stuff doesn't appeal to me either though."
If I could pretend to talk to a mare girlfriend, maybe I'd get sucked in. Even moreso with a physical ponebot situation: may end up cheaper than the money I would have to spend on a human girlfriend.
