    Every week I get multiple comments from YouTube viewers who think that I am not a real person, but an AI generated character.

    What can I do in my next episode that will lay this weird conspiracy theory to rest?

    @randahl Erm, is that comment maybe referring to that automated AI translation voice over by Youtube? Maybe these persons don't know how to turn it off.

      I think there is no way to convince those people.
      Any attempt to prove you are not AI will probably be interpreted as proof of you being AI.
      It reminds me of the wise words of the great philosopher yogi bear
      “The deeper you go into the woods, the more nuts you will find.”

        You could politely point out in Dansk (and whatever other languages you speak other than English) that the commenters are rude <plural expletive of choice>.

          @randahl It's funny, the wave of people who talk to their chatgpt as mates and their opposites who see every thing as AI-generated will never meet. The ultimate truth is that this is well-presented and researched.. Even if it was generated by AI, it would be as valid as if it was created by a high school student.
          Perfect presentation and editing. I do not find the accent to be strong, but quite light.
          Regardless of it all, the call to action at the end is lucid: vote. Democracy depends on it.

              @randahl Won't referring to your older videos (from before generating video was so easy) not be enough?

                @sjsmac I have replied to the comment seen above, that I gave a live lecture about Disinformation in Vienna, which is visible here:
                https://youtu.be/wnLviKf13lc

                That would be rather hard to fake.

                    @randahl Your production quality is top notch which some AI-haters have problems believing humans can do.

                    You'll just have to start the next video climbing out of bed, bad hairdo, putting on coffee and mutter something unintelligible like the rest of us before shaping up 😄

                        @randahl also consider the possibility that some of these types of comments may be written to discredit the speaker and sow doubt among casual viewers. E.g. not written by someone who thinks you’re an AI, but written by someone who wants to make others think you might be an AI and thus whatever you say can be disregarded as mis-/disinformation or propaganda.

                        As for how to remedy this… lots of good suggestions given already, and as this is somewhat subjective i can only tell you what would work for me:

                        1) outdoor footage. natural lighting helps, especially things like moving shadows from the branches and leaves of a tree on a sunny day.

                        2) handheld camera with no motion smoothing, again ideally in natural light.

                        3) physical appeance; for example wear clothes that look like they’ve been worn the whole day, or otherwise have a slightly untidy look.

                        4) if you stammer, cough or sneeze, don’t edit it out.

                        Stuff like this could help give a more ”human” vibe.

                            @Randahl Fink Wow.

                            Not sure if it's because anything you do or don't do, I think it's a sign o'the times. AI is here, and there's an incredible amount of AI generated slop out there. It's only logical that people hate it and think they see it everywhere.

                            But it boils down to you having to prove you're real, while most AI crap is trying the exact same thing, and with increasing success.

                            You have quite an extraordinary hairdo, and it's clear that you make an effort to look your best, maybe people find the picture too perfect to be real?

                            The way you speak is very clear and consistent, excellent for the job you do, makes it very easy to follow. Maybe people expect a slightly more hasted way of speaking, maybe with a clear accent or some grammatical errors here and there 🤷

                            Not meant as an advice, but I wouldn't change me so that other people believe it's me. I would probably add a short notice like "this video is free of AI", and if people don't believe that, well, so be it 🤷

                                  @randahl I would consider eating food during the video, wouldn’t that be pretty conclusive?

                                    @randahl As you talk, nonchalantly hold your microphone so everyone can see that your hand has a 6th finger. And then halfway through your vid, bite off this 6th finger and spit it into a jar that's full of other fingers.
                                    Maybe too much?

                                        @randahl Include a few bloopers, perhaps. Unless you are perfect in 1 go, that should work.

                                        And otherwise create some bloopers. 😉

                                        @paulk I actually left in a brief swallow pause in the last one for the same reason.

                                          @randahl Erm, is that comment maybe referring to that automated AI translation voice over by Youtube? Maybe these persons don't know how to turn it off.

                                          @marcr there should not be any auto-translation on my videos, since I have turned that off for the channel. She commented on this video, where I am not seeing any auto-translation options — do you?
