YouTube has introduced new rules requiring the flagging of videos that contain realistic-looking AI-generated content. Creators must answer questions about whether the video:
- It shows a real person saying or doing something they didn’t actually do.
- Edits the footage of a real event or place.
- It generates a realistic scene that didn’t actually happen.
If they answer “Yes,” a label will be added to the video that says “Edited or Synthetic Content.” This update focuses on increasing transparency of content that could mislead users.
