The pattern is the same. Lots of still photos that they zoom and pan with little if any video footage and no live presenter. Often the images do not directly relate to the narration and there's plenty of misinformation.

A few admit in the description that it is AI generated content like this example.

Some channels to avoid.

I'm thinking the reason why they went after the vintage electronics community is because they know there's a market for vintage stuff and longing for the "good ol' days", what with records making a comeback and vintage video gaming as well, not to mention there's a lot of people who love the sound of audio equipment that uses vacuum tubes. I think our AI Overlords feel like too many people are neglecting them in favor of old school vacuum tube and germanium transistor technology (especially the Gen Z and younger population.)
