"It is a matter not only of customer protection, it’s also a matter of democracy protection."

Ensuring democracy by selectively censoring. I feel safer already.

I better put AI label on every video I make as there is already AI in the supply chain of all the tech I use. All content contains AI now.

Let's talk about AI commissars who will decide which company will survive. In fact, let's create a few an NGOs to help! NGO will tell commissar what he wants to hear, NGO will get rewarded and allowed to exist!

I doubt EU will survive the next decade or two without major crisis or war tbh.

Edit: Instead of downvoting, how about you try retorting? I don't think I'm incorrect here. But maybe I am!

I am seeing more and more this exact sentiment that is in this comment: "I should be able to bamboozled everyone into thinking I have skills I actually don't have anymore".

Look, there's a ton of places where you can display your AI code, products or comments. Why is it so damn important that no places remain for people who want to be aware of whether or not they are engaging with a human?

Why is it so important to you that users must not be aware?

Slapping an explicit "I did not put effort into this" label on slop content is not censorship, its quite opposite, it lets people filter out the noise. No human can hope to be able to do this on their own at the scale GPUs can pump out tokens.

Authentic voices are today being drowned in waves upon waves of AI slop spam. This is not quite censorship but the end effect is similar - human voice cannot be heard. Just this time not because someone stopped the human from talking, but because they as shouting 1000x louder instead, at pennies on the dollar it costs to create something truly valuable.

requiring deep fakes to be labeled as deep fakes has nothing to do with censorship

there is also nothing selectively about it, it applies to all deep fake equally

if you had read the article you would know that this is mainly about deep fakes and other deceptive content, not every use of an AI tool (e.g. line smoothing) requires an AI label, specifically it's only about content "generative AI" usage _in a context where it's potentially deceptive_.

> AI commissars who will decide which company will survive

a huge jump in logic not related to anything in this article

> I doubt EU will survive the next decade or two without major crisis or war tbh.

again unrelated, but any country which doesn't fights deep fake propaganda will most likely not survive as a democratic state of law, soo if anything this action increases the chance of survival

> Edit: Instead of downvoting, how about you try retorting?

- then maybe read the article properly, your comments put it highly in question you did

- also maybe don't have non logically sustained jumps in reasoning in your article, especially not when you jumps in reasoning come with tons of sarcasm

> I don't think I'm incorrect here. But maybe I am!

well yes, you have even missed the long known, explicitly pointed out sever threat deep fake propaganda is for any state and especially democracies. That is not a good bases for any argument.

Also passive aggressive edits are a good way to get even more down votes if anything.

Labelling stuff as “this was made by a magic robot” is not censorship. Don’t be silly.

what's the alternative? Let our benevolent techbro oligarch overlords decide what is best for us?
