TL;DR
- YouTube is making AI disclosure labels more prominent on both regular videos and Shorts.
- For regular videos, the AI label will appear below the video player, above the description.
- For Shorts, the AI label will be an overlay on the video.
- YouTube is implementing new internal systems to automatically identify and label AI-generated videos.
- Creators must still manually disclose photorealistic AI use, but YouTube will apply labels automatically if creators don't and AI use is detected.
- Incorrectly flagged content can be corrected by creators in YouTube Studio.
- Disclosures will be permanent if YouTube's AI tools or C2PA metadata indicate full AI generation.
