AI TV Takes Over Roku | Calgary News

from Calgary News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Roku’s new AI-powered channel, Fairground AI Creator TV, is here—free, 24/7, and entirely AI-generated, even the ads. It’s stirring controversy as critics call it “AI slop” and warn of streaming’s “enshittification,” while Roku prepares for a $22 billion Fox takeover. The founder sees it as YouTube’s early days, predicting mainstream acceptance as AI content explodes across media. But regulators and countries like Canada are pushing back—excluding AI from “Canadian content” and probing copyright and privacy violations. The future of entertainment is being rewritten, and whether audiences will embrace or reject this robotic revolution remains to be seen.
