Summary

YouTube removed several popular AI-generated content channels.
Two deleted channels had over 5.9 million subscribers each.
Platform CEO vowed to reduce low-quality AI content spread.

YouTube has taken down several prominent AI-generated content channels, impacting millions of subscribers. Among the removed are CuentosFacianantes, which boasted over 5.9 million subscribers, and Imperio de Jesus, with over 5.8 million. These channels were noted for producing low-quality, AI-driven content.

This purge aligns with recent statements from YouTube CEO Neal Mohan, who, in a November 2026 letter, committed to reducing "low-quality AI content." The platform aims to enhance its existing systems against spam and clickbait to achieve this goal.

Kapwing's report identified CuentosFacianantes as the top AI slop channel. In addition to the two largest, 16 other AI channels from Kapwing's list have been deleted or lost their videos. Some channels, like Super Cat League, still exist but have removed all their content, which previously featured AI-generated cat cinema.
