Creators must disclose content that:

Makes a real person appear to say or do something they didn’t do

Alters footage of a real event or place

Generates a realistic-looking scene that didn’t actually occur

So, they want deepfakes to be clearly labeled, but if the entire video was scripted by chatgpt, the AI label is not required?

Generates a realistic-looking scene that didn’t actually occur

Doesn't this describe, like, every mainstream live action film or television show?

Technically, yes... but if it's in movie/show, you already know it's fiction

Yeah, but this doesn't put any restrictions on stuff, it just adds a label to it.

Also a lot of video game footage from livestreams, etc.

this is going to be devastating for all the prank youtube channels

Wouldn't this enable, for example, Trump claiming he didn't make the "bloodbath" comment, calling it a deepfake, and telling Youtube to remove all the new coverage of it? I mean, more generally, what stops someone from abusing this system?
