  Don’t be a fool. Of course, content corporations like Disney or the NYT are able to prove just when something was made.

    Don’t be a fool either.

    Of course I am going to do this to you, not to Disney etc. because I am way better at creating proof than you are.

    And of course Disney etc. are going to do this to you and me, because they are even better at creating proof than you and me are.

      This bill reads like it was written by Adobe.

      This provenance labelling scheme already exists. Adobe was a major force behind it. (see here: en.wikipedia.org/…/Content_Authenticity_Initiativ… ). This bill would make it so that further development will be tax-funded through organizations like DARPA.

      Of course, they are also against fair use. They pay license fees for AI training. For them, it means more cash flow.
