This a pointless nearly unenforceable rule to make people feel better. Sure, if you generate something that seems like a real event that is provably false you can be caught, but anything mundane is not enforceable. Once models reach something like Sora 1.5 level of ability, we are kind of doomed on knowing whats real in video.

#22We need to fix the title. It's not just AI -- it's any realistic scene generated by VFX, animation, or AI. The title of the blogpost is "How we're helping creators disclose altered or synthetic content" -- it shouldn't say AI on the Hacker News title. > Generating realistic scenes: Showing a realistic depiction of fictional major events, like a tornado moving toward a real town. Does the Wizard of Oz tornado scene ne…
yes but that's very hard and doesn't scale, (can't be cheaply shot from multiple angles etc.)
Re: YouTube now requires to label their realistic-looking videos made using AI
#23"made using AI" is such a fuzzy all-encompassing term that this feels like it will turn into another California Prop 65 warning scenario. Pretty soon every video will have a disclaimer like: WARNING: This video contains content known to the State of Google to be generated by AI algorithms and/or tools. Ok, beauty face filters are not included. How about character motion animations? How detailed does the after effects…
You might be interested in Adobe’s “Content Credentials” [1] which seemingly aim to clarify exactly what processing has applied to an image. I don’t like the idea of Adobe being the gatekeepers of image-fidelity-verification but the idea is intriguing and it seems like we’ll need something like this (that camera makers sign onto) to deal with AI.
EDIT: I think these should also include whatever built-in processing is applied to the raw sensor data within the camera itself.

#26So beauty filters are ok, but what's the true difference between a strong beauty filter and a face change.
Society is simply revisiting a conversation about doctored photographs, videos, and audio recordings. The last word on this subject was not written in the 1920s, it's good to revisit old assumptions every century or so, when new forms of media and media manipulation become developed. The first pass on it is unlikely to be the best, or even the last one.

And just like a prototype that would never end up in production, we'll remain with the first implementation we could think of cough copyright cough

#28Without enforceability it'll go the same way as it has on Pixiv, the good actors will properly label their AI utilizing work, while the bad actors will continue to lie to try to maximize their audience until they get caught, then rinse and repeat. Kind of like crypto-scammers. For context, Pixiv had to deal with a massive wave of AI content being dumped onto the site by wannabe artists basically right as the initial…
Also remains to be seen if labeling your content as containing AI-generated work will help or hurt you in your viewership.
My guess is that youtube is going to downrank this content, and may be trying to crowdsource training data in order to do this automatically.

#30This is great. Really well-thought out policy, in my opinion. Sure, some people will try to get around the restrictions, especially nefarious actors, but the more popular the channel, the faster they'll get caught. It also doesn't try to distinguish between regular special effects and AI-generated special effects, which is wise.
I don't know, sometimes rules need ambiguity, like "high crimes and misdemeanors", but other times the little guys lose, like civil asset forfeiture.
