Weedout is a Safari extension that filters out YouTube videos labeled 'Made with AI' from feeds, search results, related videos, and Shorts. It leverages YouTube's own disclosure badges to avoid false positives and offers a dim mode for verification. The project taps into a growing demand for AI content filtering but is limited to Safari and relies on YouTube's labeling.

Target audience: general users, content consumers, privacy-conscious users
