I'm talking about laugh tracks. They are fake. The sound of laughter is homogenous. If you listen to a real audience, some people laugh louder, some softer. Also with laugh tracks, you can tell someone is turning a volume knob or slider on a mixer. It's all fake.

I mean the laugh tracks are still real people who have been recorded that an editor can slap over on the master. It's not AI generated or like a DJ mixing new sound effects up.
