He goes into the details of the most upvoted Google Gemini fails and then branches out to how text/image/audio generative AI is being used on Facebook, Instagram to inflate traffic, as well as how you can actually earn some income by farming reactions on twitter now (with the blue checkmark).

There's a section on how adobe is selling AI generated images with their stock photos, but you can tell this video might be a little rushed because he comes to the conclusion that people are paying $80 for one of these images, when in reality the $80 adobe plan gives you 40 images (so about $2 per stock image). That or he knows this statement is misleading, but makes it anyway because it will drive his own reactions up (oh the irony).

With adobe he touches on their updated ToS that state how any images uploaded to Adobe can be used to train their own generative image model.

The Netflix section talks about the "What Jennifer Did" documentary which used AI generated images and passed them off as real (or at least didn't mention that the images were fake).

Spotify: How audio generative AI is being used to create music and is being published on there now as well as their failed

Edit: as well as their failed "projects/features" (car accessory, exclusive podcasts, etc.)

Multiple times throughout the video he pushes the theory that most of these companies are also using AI generated content to drive engagement on their own site (or to earn income without needing to pay any artists).

He definitely focuses only on the worst ways that generative AI can be used without touching on any realistic takes from the other side (just the extreme takes from the other side with statements like "AI music will replace the soulless crappy music that's being released now... and it will be better and have more soul!").

Still worth a watch, he brings up a ton of valid points about the market being oversaturated with AI generated products.
