Photography and motion pictures were deemed evil. Video games made you a mass murderer. Barcodes somehow seem to affect your health or the freshness of vegetables. The earth is flat.

The issue is that some people believe shit someone tells them and they deny any facts. This has been always a problem. I am all in for labeling content as AI generated. But it wont help with people trying to be malicious or who choose to be dumb. Forcing to watermark every picture made neither, it will turn into a massive problem, its a solid pillar towards full scale surveillance. Just alone the fact that analog cams become by default less trustworthy then any digital device with watermarking is terrible. Even worse, phones will eventually have AI upscaling and similar by default, you can't even make an accurate picture without anything being tagged AI. The information is eventually worthless.
