tbh the last video I’ve watched from fern was basically an undisclosed 15min mc donalds advertisement… I don’t known how much educational the channel is after it got sold

Youtube actually experimented using a neural upscaler on shorts a while back but they got some backlash and reverted it https://www.androidauthority.com/youtube-shorts-upscaling-experiment-3591230/

For whoever need this: this show is called “The! Iron-Armed! DASH!!” but I’ve never found this episode for download anywhere :(

I think the problem is that all the global “fat” supply has gone into palm oil since it’s low cost and tastes nice, so the scale of it’s production make the problem worse…

so even if the alternatives are worse on paper, splitting the production between them could mitigate the damage maybe?

btw I found this quite comprehensive study

If you read the article ( https://dl.acm.org/doi/epdf/10.1145/3719027.3765062 ) they are testing this in an EXTREMELY controlled enviroment and directed subjects… I have my doubts that this could provide any insight on whether this is even feaseble for public surveillance, let alone effective…
