Original response for preservation in case of ban:

Carl Jung is a very famous psychologist - a student of the infamous Sigmund Freud and considered by many to be the very founder of most psychology today (Jung, not Freud, whose work was pivotal and inspirational but not quite as inspired in and of itself). And Alan Watts - the guy with the beard - is... well I dunno, some kind of self-help guru I suppose.

If Alan Watts was saying in his own words a message that traces its roots back to Carl Jung, then that makes sense. I did not watch all of those other videos, which yeah are probably AI slop, but the one I shared is from a channel dedicated to Alan Watts. So a primary source then. Or rather we might say secondary, if an auditory record was converted into this more traditionally visually-oriented media space. But not tertiary - it may have originated from Jung's work but it is not verbatim and rather seems heavily adapted, so represents a message in its own right.

Your 2nd and 3rd sentences do not make much sense to me - yeah it looks similar b/c the ones in the same channel are for the same person, Alan Watts? The cigarette... I dunno, even presuming that it is wrong, it is an exceedingly common visual trope to show something in a supposed "reflection" that points in the other direction. A 6-fingered hand is strong evidence of AI slop, but a mismatching reflection is not.

You might be, ahem, "seeing too much" yourself there, haha! :-P

Far worse than what you mentioned, the video gets into some religious gibberish that I do not believe is true - something about being one with the universe and all. I can look past that, and I saw something in the video that made me think for a moment, which I thought gave it some value that might be worth sharing. I saw no evidence that the video itself - past the thumbnail - was made by AI, though tbh I barely looked at the visuals and mostly just listened to the auditory track.
