Comment on China will enforce clear flagging of all AI generated content starting from September
lily33@lemm.ee 1 month agoI agree that it’s difficult to enforce such a requirement on individuals. That said, I don’t agree that nobody cares for the content they post. If they have “something cool they made with AI generation” - then it’s not a big deal to have to mark it as AI-generated.

Why stop at “AI-generated”? Why not have the individual post their entire workflow, showing which model they used, the prompt, and any follow-up editing or post-processing they did to the image?
In the 90s we went through this same shit with legislators trying to ban photoshopped images (hah: They still try this from time to time). Then there were attempts at legislating mandatory watermarks and similar concepts. It’s all the same concept: New technology scary, regulate and restrict it.
In a few years AI-generated content will be as common as photoshopped images and no one will bat an eye because it’ll “just be normal”. A photographer might take a picture of a model (or a number of them) for a cover or something then they’ll use AI to change the image after. Or they’ll use AI to generate an image from scratch and then have models try to copy it. Or they’ll just use AI to change small details in the image such as improving lighting conditions or changing eye color.
AI is very rapidly becoming just another tool in photo/video editing and soon it will be just another tool in document writing and audio recording/music creation.

We’re already there you just aren’t noticing them anymore because they’ve progressed beyond the Six Fingers / Halo Ring in the eyes level of believability.

This really underscores the need for complete reform of the entire media apparatus…
