YouTube Helpless Against spam Bot Comments!

[JoshB]

We've seen it so many times on other creator videos and even on our own, those comments that are extremely generic and easily send up the red flags of bots. It's amazing in how YouTube, a multi-billion dollar corporation that utilizes one of the world's largest AI models is unable to put a dent into these scourge of garbage comments. Of course their focus is on GenAI for people to use within Shorts, AI created music to use within your videos, and every where else.

It's makes the comments section even more useless in trying to be interactive with your community that are actively leaving thoughtful comments. YouTube suggests to turn on the "strict" setting to combat these but as Lon from Lon.tv mentioned in his community post that this really didn't help at all.
