Everything About YouTube's New AI Content Label & Why I am salty about it!
Summary
TLDRYouTube is introducing a new AI content labeling system, requiring creators to disclose if their content has been altered or synthetically generated by AI. Creators don't need to label minor AI adjustments but must do so for AI voice cloning or deep fakes. The label doesn't limit viewership but failing to disclose can lead to penalties, including removal from YouTube Partner Program (YPP). Monetization is possible if AI content adheres to YouTube policies, but there's confusion around monetization specifics. The system's lack of a default setting and mobile upload limitations may cause issues for creators, with potential for community guideline strikes.
