Can you put the disclosure on RUclips ads that are AI generated and uses a synthetic voice of someone well known that intentionally tries to scam people
The AI isn't the problem there, it's the scam part.
@@Axodus Absolutely... Creators are hit with community strikes at the drop of a hat but there are scam ads which have been running for a very long time and which have been reported thousands of times. It seems that *money* buys privilege 😞 and advertisers can do no wrong.
Great idea
@@xjet Amen.
A great suggestion for the Google Ads team.
Please provide a mass edit option so that we can select Yes or No in regards to Altered Content in RUclips Studio for multiple or all videos. Retroactively editing hundreds of videos one at a time in our channels will take forever.
Not sure this is going to work. There's some major grey-areas getting greyer
Lol yeah def not gonna work. In a very rapid time, the line is going to become so blurry they won't be able to decipher the difference. Then only those trying to deceive won't check the box while the honest creators will.
You need to FIX the issue of FALSE COPYRIGHT CLAIMS. Music tracks we've been using for years is being stolen and false claimed.
It was there idea to do that. They revenue money from those pirate accounts, goes back into their pockets. Those accounts belong to them. Totally criminal.
And they falsify view counts. And they put that money, back into their pockets.
To be truly valuable to viewers we need an extra filter "exclude altered or synthetic content". This would allow us to avoid those annoying AI-generated videos that currently infest RUclips to a huge extent. While you're at it, also include "exclude shorts" because they're also something that clutter search results with noise.
Random thought, if you watch on computer I saw a video explaining how to block shorts with adblockers.....
I like the idea of exclude altered or synthetic content:👍🏼👍🏼
@@pickuptowntravel Yeah, but then you miss out on a bunch of good videos that are 2-3 minutes long 😞 Shorts are more than just a length as well, they're vertical format which is ridiculous on a TV set or computer screen.
So you want to censor people just because they might use AI voiceovers in an animation. Not very PROGRESSIVE of you. AI isnt going anywhere. Either get over it or keep regressing the country backwards 100 years.
Putting ALL of the censorship or algorithm manipulation features of the platform completely in the hands of the consumer would be the most PROFITABLE move .. and the most moral, too. Let the public decide for themselves what they think is worth their viewing time .. then sell your ads accordingly.
Thank you for this excellent video!
There's a lot of confusion among content creators, even those with millions of subscribers. They're publishing videos without fully understanding which content requires flagging as AI-generated or rendered. It seems they haven't read or understood the text you provided, which unfortunately isn't visible in RUclips Studio during video uploads.
I suggest making it clearer what falls under the category of AI-generated content and what doesn't. Perhaps a creative way to display this information in RUclips Studio without being too verbose would be helpful.
From what I've read, the intention behind flagging content as AI-generated is to prevent misrepresentation. For example, if someone creates a deepfake video of MrBeast, making it appear as if he said something he didn't, viewers should be notified that it's AI-generated content.
On the other hand, it's essential to emphasize that not all AI content needs to be flagged. For instance, enhancements like facial features (similar to beauty and makeup) don't require flagging in most cases. However, exceptions exist-for instance, using AI to create a fake moon landing video would be misleading.
Additionally, some established RUclipsrs, who began before the AI revolution, seem jealous of the rise of smaller channels. Incorrectly labeling these smaller, often faceless channels as AI-driven and seeking their punishment or removal goes against the spirit of progress and RUclips's inclusive values.
In my genre, I'm accused of being an AI because I'm a faceless channel. Even though I conduct my research , write my own script , source my media from scratch,and edit independently. I don’t have the budget to hire anyone. RUclips should emphasize that showing oneself on screen doesn't automatically make content better or more authentic than a faceless channel. Some of us prefer to focus on storytelling rather than our own faces.
Just as we read books by famous authors or listen to podcasts without seeing the producer, it's acceptable for RUclips creators not to show their faces. Let's keep RUclips centered around viewers and the content that serves them-the core of what made RUclips successful in the first place.
And if you've read this far, thank you again!
OK, what about other gaming channels like record, edit, using own voice, music from audio library, and editing using premiere or capcut, all of this is by self doing it without using AI, is that count too?
From what you wrote, these just have to be uploaded with selecting no in alterned content. @@RealSazuki
@@CrimesAnatomy so i have to choose No then
maybe have influencers label their fake videos of flying on fake private jets and lives
Please allow an option to "Not show videos containing AI" in your feed?
I don't like stuff like this. "Meaningful" is completely subjective and "potential consequences in the future" means they'll use this to demonitize stuff they don't agree with.
Not to mention most content "alteration" will be impossible to prove. It's easy to see this turning into the world's biggest game of whack-a-mole and innocent channels getting demonetized along the way...
I agree with that, it's just another way to demonetize hundreds of channels just like they did with the shorts, pushing them and encouraging "remixing" which is simply imho an abuse of Fair Use by RUclips just to get a part of the new "vertical video" reels, shorts, what ever you call it, market, and just as creators channels were and still continue to be demonetized under some b@llshit "reuse" policy it's in the future imho that RUclips will probably begin demonetizing channels for not labeling content it's all about the big guys/gals.
RUclips needs to turn the tables and start paying creators, real creators, for providing content for their platform rather than making them jump through hoops to be monetized then RUclips takes more than half of the ad revenue!
There is an insane amount of AI scripted, AI narrated channels that use inaccurate and false thumbnails to abuse CTR with low effort content. As a creator with a many other creators in my network, so many of us are frustrated with this. These changes won’t make any difference to the abusive AI channel trend. Is there anything you’re doing to fix this?
Maybe they are learning, just like u did in the beginning
This!!!
I would guess that would be treated as a separate issue from this particular rollout. Over time, audiences vote with their feet - they will click away from that type of content as they recognize it. I believe a subset of that type of content wouldn’t be monetizable either. Interesting question though.
A lot of channels which are faceless get accused to being Ai but are not
Exactly. They even removed dislikes
So, the aim of this voluntary disclosure is to ensure that the viewers are not misled into thinking that something happened or someone said something when it actually didn't happen or said.
the aim of the voluntary disclosure is most likely to get you to unknowingly participate in the training of an AI product that google will use in the future to demonetize any content they possibly can.
Can we click the box that we don't use AI for all of our videos in just one click somewhere? I have almost 3,000 videos posted on my channel, and I don't use AI. I don't want to go back one by one and click the box 3,000 times.
Are AI generated text-to-speech voices allowed?
What if the generated voice is only used for an alternate language audio track? (such as one created with RUclips's own Aloud service) Will the label show up for everyone?
This would discriminate against those who have lost their voice due to a medical condition so if they banned this then in the EU they would face a discrimination suit.
I asked the support and they said it needs to be labeled
@@g.o.m.a. They're Fascists
@@g.o.m.a.simply using a text to speech voice over must be disclosed as altered content?
@@marieascot may be a case for the international human rights commission too
Can you put the disclosure on RUclips ads that are Al generated and uses a synthetic voice of someone well known that intentionally tries to scam people 🧐🧐🧐
Great video!
My only concern is about videos that have SOME generation in them:
E.g. a real talking head of me but with Ai Gen:
- broll
- thumbnail
-enhanced audio
- removed distracting objects from video editing software like fire alarms, random posters, etc.
Will this be allowed on RUclips?
*I don’t care about monetization, just don’t want my vids to me removed
Please add more edit options so we can clearly understand what we are saying YES or NO to it... the options given were so general... guys you need to be very specific in order for us to create channels that doesn't violate any of your guidelines - some faceless channels were generated by AI.
I am mute and need to use a synthetic voice. I hope youtube keeps those types of things in mind.
I think one big concern that isn't being addressed is disclosing how self-reporting this will affect the way the algorithm treats it. If one were to, for example, make a satirical meme with AI alterations (not with fraudulent intent), and they self-report this, will the algorithm suppress the video and punish it's performance? Will it have a similar effect to the current "Is this for kids?" thing where monetization becomes impossible? I don't intend to make specific altered content myself (my AI-generated content is completely and clearly fictional), but if it becomes clear self-reporting those things suppresses the video it's going to deter people from being honest about it.
What about altering in After Effects? Not AI but a whole creative process.
The keyword here is: are you gonna mislead the viewer in a way that is not detectable (or very hard to detect)?
Would be great if clickbait thumbnails that have been modified to the extreme eg showing natural disasters, would also be considered misleading and result in YT labelling the video. Personally, I am fed up with channels doing that and getting away with it. Thank you!
They are only getting away with it if the audience clicks. People need to continue to vote with their clicks.
I agree, some of these channels have even clipped my storm videos and used them in their own footage, some of these channels are naming one place and showing the disaster from another place which is completely misleading. But hey fake news sells
I am a 3d technical vfx artist, my channel is dedicated to teaching my craft here on RUclips. Now although I understand and agree with the sentiment of these changes, I think there still needs to be changes and tweaks to RUclips's policies around this topic. 3d artists feathers have already been ruffled with the introduction of prompt generative AI, and now although it might not be intentional, it seems we are under even further threat with these policy changes here on RUclips. Most 3d artists strive towards photo-realism perfection which takes years to master the craft, but now it seems we are being placed in the same category someone who uses prompts with generative ai which is unfair. The aim of vfx is to make our work look and feel believable which is not about deception, but more about the art of immersing an audience. Take for example some B-Roll drone footage of a town where a 3d technical vfx artist will spend weeks creating an immersive shot of a volcano, tornado or whatever seamlessly composited into the footage. Or B-Roll of a forest where we might add 3d elements like tree's, animals and other elements seamlessly into the shot. Achieving excellent results takes a lot of time and skill to achieve as any seasoned 3d technical vfx artists will tell you. By placing label on our work that has been attributed to generative ai will undermine our authenticity and stereotype every 3d artists who strives for perfection. And in a world of ai where people now increasingly seek authenticity, it could ultimately discourage new audience to our craft. I kindly appeal to RUclips to revisit and adjust this policy accordingly, it takes years of dedication to master the 3d vfx pipeline, and only a week or 2 to master ai. These 2 disciplines are not even comparable and to attribute them as the same is unfair and ultimately damaging to the 3d development community. All the best and have a fantastic day.
do you want to cooperate?
Yes, the ADs are the worst part. I report 10x a day when I see those fake "click here and we'll send you BTC or ether" ads. RUclips needs to check for review before they accept these ads.
I agree with most of what was said here but the main issue that I've noticed was the huge nuances in between AI and manual edits which could be seen as false information type content just because of a snowy overlay?
(Example each time I put fake snow on top of something I need to tell mom?)
exactly, say i did some 3d tracking of text in a scene that matches the lighting conditions, is that considered false info bc it looks real
There is one big question that needs to be answered. Do TTS voices need to be disclosed as alterered or synthetic?
I think they should be, yes.
@@DrKevGuitar How about those who have lost their voice due to a medical problem. As a victim of covid you should know this.
@@marieascot Yes, i do and I still think it should be disclosed as a synthetic voice.
mmmmmm TTS voices are just like face filters expect for your voice right? I would not think that the voice would be the issue what we need to worry about is what the message is coming from that voice. Well my opinion however great question
@@LifeAccountsandGrowingPains They are not just filters but can replace someone's voice who cannot talk. e.g. Stephen Hawkling but are more sophisticated than that these days. For people with a vocal disability they are given a voice.
As long as this option is just that, an option and/or voluntary, then, you're asking creators to handicap themselves against other creators who will refuse the option.
KEEPING IT REAL just got harder. I get that Discloser of Altered or Synthetic content needs to be addressed, but this means more BUSY WORK, and another reason for channels to get buried whenever YT "mistakenly" flags content that isn't AI. I keep it real on my channel, but it seems RUclips gives busy work that hinders my channel's growth. For example, My health and wellness videos get flagged. Recently, I released a video showing how to use cupping therapy on thighs. In the video, I'm wearing shorts, and a turtle neck, but the content immediately was restricted. Other videos (I'm fully clothed ) and show how to use beauty and wellness products on my stomach. These videos get restricted and some are kept restricted. Others have been under "review" for months / years. I spend valuable time attempting to figure out what's wrong with my videos, when I'd rather be creating helpful content for my viewers. Meanwhile, successful channels with millions of subscribers are breaking all YT's rules. 7 years ago, my channel was growing by leaps and bounds (viewers loved my keeping it real style) but in a blink, it abruptly halted, and currently my viewers tell me they can't find me. Oh and the last time I met my $100 payment threshold was last year. I feel my channel's been placed in limbo land, and destined to never grow to reach its full potential. Does RUclips choose the WINNERS and LOSERS, and do any other creators feel this way❓
It is best to create your own original content. Be creative.
This doesn't go far enough, in my opinion. I don't think viewers and creators differ too much in our opinion that we want a separation between videos that a creator has put significant creativity and workload into, vs a video that somebody has generated by way of a text prompt. To use my own niche as an example, I know many viewers who land on my channel often remark how relieved they are to find out that I'm actually, you know, a human being. They are sick and tired of endless searches landing them on AI text to speech narration channels. The number of these synthetic videos they have to wade through to find a human creator is exhausting. I am certain this viewer fatigue extends to many other niches and genres across the platform and I do believe if RUclips allows these "text prompt creators" to continue unchecked, we will eventually see a significant drop in usage on the platform as a whole.
Are they disclosing this content was altered/AI corrected?
Can PC users get to pick a thumbnail for their shorts ? ..Or ..not really ?
Can we set this in Upload Defaults and bulk updates?
AI, so far as it pertains to the majority of content creation, does not "enhance creativity". It uses the creativity of other people to create or enhance content to be relabeled as your own. AI created and AI enhanced content should be required to be marked as such when uploaded in YT studio and then there should be a toggleable function added to each user's preferences that enable/disable showing search results that contain AI content.
So in short, Creators don't have to tick "yes" for altered content if the content is not spreading misinformation/fake news that misrepresents real-life events.
Also just verbally misleading in that it might not be meant for harm/deception, but it still changes reality in some way.
I don't have such AI generated content… even though I get comments asking which AI voice I'm using. 😄
…but shouldn't this be a setting that could be done in bulk? I tried selecting all my videos in the Content tab, but I didn't see an option to answer “No” to the “Altered content” question.
Any video using this tag should have a warning watermark displayed on the video advising the user it is generated. The amount of SCAMS that I have seen on youtube lately with famous people 'selling' questionable products. The fact you allow those video's is a debate on its own. Once more this is an example of RUclips putting $$$$ over TRUTH...
RUclips team should apply this Labelling to all those misleading Thumbnails as well that are used by all big time RUclipsrs that Clickbait the viewers to get ad revenue. And these BIG TIME RUclipsrs are so cocky and arrogant that they actually encourage the viewers to create Clickbait Thumbnails to get more views. RUclips should put an autogenerated label on their Thumbnail simply called CLICKBAIT in bold letters.
Clickbait is already against the community guidelines though.
The big question is when we will be given a bulk labeling because we have to go through the painful process of manually doing that to hundreds of videos. The "upload flow" labeling is insufficient and when RUclips is potentially forced by the FTC or internal decision to change the answer for the question at 2:05, many channels will suffer as much as in 2019 with COPPA. A bulk labeling selection tool remains necessary therefore.
Any way to stop notifications for shorts and get only long form notifications from your subscriptions?
I have the opposite problem 😅 i dint get shorts notifications and never mentions notifications. Long form is delayed by several hours but at least, eventually I get those 😅
@@NinjaOrchids My problem is that usually many short form videos are created for example by a 1 hour long form video that i have already watched. So it's just spam for me. I need a way to deactivate them because it's too distracting. I get too many notifications already!
I keep getting notifications for the same videos?
@@artbysavvis people now use AI shorts video generator programs. Upload the URL of a video into a program and it breaks it down into shorts. Thats it... those then get uploaded with little effort and boom because the VOD was watched, the recommendations present it in shorts again. It makes sense why that happens but it is annoying, as you quite rightly say. There are so many loopholes and not every channel holder has some form of ethics under which they operate. In a reply to one of my comments, someone said that it will sort itself out when the viewer votes with their click. In short, don't click amd they will go away. Well, that doesn't work either because bot channels rule the algorithm now as well. I opt for 'dont recommend channel'. It takes time, tedious but works.
I keep asking, and I'm getting no help. Can someone do something about the commenting system glitch, which locks up the keyboard on older Android phones when trying to make a comment on a video? It shouldn't be very hard to fix. I've asked many times on these insider videos, and have been ignored. I've been an avid RUclipsr for over 15 years. This is severely limiting my RUclips usage - not only because I physically _cant_ use it as much on mobile, but because of the way people with actual problems get ignored here.
I gave up and axed my usage. Haven't completely broken the addiction, but made a lot of progress. I'm no help on actually fixing, I wound up with different phones.... but still went with cheapies, so at the rate it's going figure they will have problems in the next year or two and hoping the next youtube option is out or I'm just ready to give it up at that point.
I back you with your request to get this sorted out! Its been a problem for such a long time!! Crazy! You are one of many that have tried to get this glitch solved. Guess there isn't power in numbers
What about voice-overs? Are these safe when not impersonating someone? Thanks
ROTFLMAO. "Trust and Safety" - More like "Censorship and Propaganda" team...
Did upload speeds get capped? I can't even upload a few shorts without waiting hours?
How do I remove the creator insider section from my channel dashboard?
My understanding is as following:
1. You should label your content if it convey a "reality" that is altered misleading the viewer.
2. They talk about AI just because it is very hard to detect it is altered, but it doesn't matter it is AI generated or just advanced CGI as long as it can't be detected as altered (AKA fake) content.
3. Clearly fictonal content is not misleading, only content that is presented as real matters.
So I don't have to go through 2800+ videos and click NO on all of them good to know because that would be a massive ball ache.
Good Q&A. But please answer this:
Is disclosure necessary when either the RUclips video or links in the description depict AI generated images to illustrate a story?
Example: Fantasy author features realistic-looking AI generated fictitious people or places for book cover.
NewTuber here. What software are you using to do the interview? Zoom or internal RUclips tools?
Day 19 Please fix the re-used content policies de-monetizing the entire channel and de-monetizing one video both are different things at least give them a warning so the creator can delete the re-used content video. it's good for both sides.
Your team told Masteroogway which video is violating the reused content policy but you can't tell the same things to small creators
Thank You in advance :)
Thanks. and... What about with all videos that we have published? This is going to be only for the new ones?
She said you dont have to go back and change videos you already published unless you want to.
How about helping creators by not demonetizing their entire channel for no reason! Or at least be more specific as to why. Or how about certain videos?
Thank you. I want to know also, so I appreciate this rule.
Thanks for the update! This has been bothering my mind for some time now. What does it mean for me to have my content "out there" when the (AI) tools are as powerful as today. This gives me confidence i can keep produce and enjoy the RUclips platform. Im probably gonna be a little bit weary before i can relax fully - but this makes me think i can atleast ask for help if anything should come up.
Q: Is changing playback-speed / pitch / echo - alterations that is comparable to AI or could that be "fair play" - Im not looking for a straight Answer. Just sharing my thoughts!
Now what would be cool is if people were allowed to filter their RUclips searches by AI or altered content! But honestly, I don't think this new feature is really going to do much, and doesn't have much a purpose. If people like a video, then they'll continue watching!
This has confused me a bit.
I do videos about PSAs, Public Service Announcements. Those PSAs often depict tragic events such as road traffic accidents or house fires, or people doing drugs or someone committing a crime. The vast majority of PSAs, especially those that I can actually show on RUclips, are dramatisations of such things. They don't contain real footage.
The question I have is would showing content like that require one of these disclosures? This disclosure is intended for AI generated content, but what about non-AI content that depicts an event like that?
Thank you so much both of you🎉
With all of RUclips's confusing new policies and creators being demonetized for "false positive" bots suggesting reuse, and the shorts are a waste of creators time because the remixing and reuse will send all of a creators time, effort and hard work down the toilet ... building a website and hosting your own content with 100% of your ad revenue going into the creator's pocket not RUclips. A.I. Content is only a small part of the "new" unimproved RUclips platform. 💯
i think those are realistic expectations for altered content. Just put the details and disclose is the minimum so we dont start to believe anything that is in front of our eyes.
So will they require this for Ads? So many ads have major edits with "Significant alterations" What about the use of Google tools too? I "Feel" like this is a play to cut out non-google tools. It's OK if you use their software, not other companies. Just an odd feeling...
Way to get ahead of this, RUclips team.
I love how you illustrated "meaningful content" using real-world examples that creators can grasp.
Wait, was that sarcasm or sincerity. I'm not sure.
@@GetFluentinSpanish Needs a label!
The current RUclips layout appears to be outdated and poorly designed. The main information about media creators is cramped into a small space on the right side, making it difficult to read. Additionally, the unrelated videos are stacked too closely to the main video player, causing inconvenience. Moreover, the new layout results in excessive loading time and overall laggy performance. It is frustrating to be forced into using this unhelpful layout. It would be beneficial if RUclips provided an option to revert back to the previous layout.
Question:
I have 4 youtube channels and 2 of them are similar niche. I started put them together importing videos from the smaller channel to the biggest one.
The question is: Do i need to make all of the videos unlisted on the smaller channel before they get publish on my other channel or should i leave all the videos published?
There's no feature available in yt studio app to disclosed content
Can we please get the Audio Library added to the Studio app? Scrolling through the audio library on mobile is very clunky
Dubbing/Localization Question - Can we assume that using tools like DittoDub, HeyGen or others to make it appear someone is speaking another language - content like this SHOULD be labeled as AI generated or altered? That's my guess but because you didn't specifically mention it in the video and I didn't see it in the blog either... I'd love to see/hear that confirmation from RUclips. It's a HUGE and growing content strategy. Thx!
what about Eleven labs and Murf Studios?
After I asked an ordinary question under one of those Creator Insider videos the algorithm just stopped suggesting my content.
Haha, join the club! I feel I've been "punished" for some time now for being critical (but truthful) on these videos. I've even asked specifically if that was the case. Of course, I got no response.
@@BaltimoreAndOhioRR I certainly did learn my lesson, my friend.
@@sim2g I too have noticed the remarkable sudden drop off by RUclips for my channels suggested/ recommendations occurring each time you post a comment or reply on these "insider videos" especially if you ask any questions or even dare criticise the subject of what has been said in such a video...
Coincidence !!! Nah, it happens every single time, I'm just glad RUclips for me is simply a hobby that I make no money from but I can see why this could hurt other channel owners who do make money via RUclips if this mysterious/ coincidental drop off in suggestions/ recommendations happens to them just for daring yo ask a question or giving an honest opinion or viewpoint on these "insider videos"...
Google owns RUclips. I have a travel channel and have just discovered Google Earth Studio where I can create a clip that comes from above the Earth and zoom down to the place I am currently talking about. I am not an astronaut and will never go into space, but we see this kind of clip all the time in RUclips videos. So if I create such a clip in Google Earth Studio, will I have to label my video as having synthetic content??
I think the mobile studio need update, if there is a option to do not notify my subscribers on PC why I don't have it on mobile? 📱
Very good questions. Thanks. Downside for RUclipsrs is that it's just getting more & more complicated. It's what it's & can't be stopped.
hi youtube Management. you tube shorts videos rpm is very low please increase rpm thank you
@05:49 _"There could be cases in the future where there are consequences"_
For the past weeks I have slowly been working my way through all my older videos... at present 1.6k to adjust the settings because 'ya never know'... I have trust issues 🙇🏼♀️
So my question has to do with the first bullet point. Are we now saying that any music (or song) overlay / soundtrack we add to our b-roll from like epidemic sounds, artlist, soundstripe, studio, etc that makes it more cinematic now has to be disclosed? You are now talking about every youtuber labeling every single video they ever uploaded because of their intro, b-roll, branding, etc. for me alone that would be over 300 videos including my shorts.
Examples of content creators need to disclose
To help keep viewers informed about the content they're viewing, we require creators to disclose content that is altered or synthetic when it appears realistic or meaningful.
Examples of content, edits, or video assistance that creators need to disclose:
-Synthetically generating music (including music generated using Creator Music)
God bless you sir good idea for beginners so nice❤
What's the point of having to declare whether the content is AI augmented when there isn't even a report option to report content that fails to declare it despite being clearly fake/AI generated... also in general.. when are you going to improve report system and options? It's a joke at this point.
Allowing me to label someone else's content as synthetic, given that it would only be my opinion and in no way proven fact, seems very unfair and a potentially abusable mechanic.
As a creator using licensed AI voice models from ElevenLabs (akin to hiring voice talent), I'm unclear if disclosure is needed when not impersonating real people/places as elevenlabs have proprietary voices. After all you are not impersonating lady Gaga in your voice over . Also, if creating a fictional sci-fi setting like an ultra realistic exoplanet with generic human characters using AI image generator, this doesn't seem to alter reality or risk misleading viewers. It's not like showing Barak Obama in the Sahara desert in a snowy environment .However, the disclosure guidance around "realistic" AI content is very confusing .Could youtube please clarify this. And, most important using elevenlabs doesn't mean you mislead the audience by copying the doneld trump voice, in fact it is akin to using voice over artist because elevenlabs have its own proprietary library
If you don't sing in real life but model your own voice to sing a song, does this also fall in the category of mentioning content created from Ai ?
The big question is will RUclips allow monetization for AI generated content? Because there are people and sources that said their channels were rejected for monetization because they used AI tools to create the videos
As it should be, AI= Demonetized. Only fair, and will keep out a lot of would be quick buck content farms.
thanks for clearing it up about past uploaded videos.... (thankfully my videos aren't 'altered') so going foward I can select NO on future uploads.
"synthetic content" should apply to all of those AI generated channels that just do movie recaps and an AI voice reads off the wikipedia plot synopsis for the movie. And there needs to be a way as a viewer searching for content to like, check a box that makes it to where fake synthetic results don't show up in the search.
Do I need to check this box for an AI photo I used to design and sew an outfit from? I checked the box just in case, but I'm a little fuzzy on whether I needed to or not. I was very explicit in the video that I created the photo using AI, so I assumed that would be enough to properly inform my viewers.
If we explicitly say in the video or write it on screen that it's AI, would we still need to check the box? And do we need to check the box for all synthetic content or only synthetic content that alters real life in a "meaningful way?" I don't think anyone would've been confused about the way I used that one AI photo into thinking it was a real girl.
I write my own script but I use Text to Speech, does that count Altered or Synthetic Content? does all vfx also counts as Altered or Synthetic Content?
Not
I do too.
Not unless it’s using super realistic voice of a recognizable person so that it might cause confusion that it might be considered that person actually saying it.
@@DougHewsonYT Just some generic voice since doing my own voice recording take so much time. Thanks for clarification
@DougHewsonYT wait what if using own voice does that count and choose option yes?
It is hard to distinguish what is meaningful content that would be altered. Thanks for this. I keep thinking this is all for the political year but trying to stay level headed.
i am glad this video came out because I was soooo concerned about the monetization portion of it
This is just a disaster to happen if alterated content does not impact the ranking of the video. It means any sensational fake AI video will have easily several hours to do a lot of views before RUclips label them as fake or delete them. Again, another smart stategy from the RUclips team....
What about when I’m creating an action series where I might make my cityscape look apocalyptic using AI? I’m not misleading, I’m entertaining. I have to declare that. So why should I be restricted in being recommended just because I used a tool? You cannot apply a blanket algorithmic penalty just because someone discloses Yes.
Another example. I’m making skit comedy. Political satire and I use footage of say Donald Trump and I use AI to make him say something funny or comedic. I have to declare that, but I should not be penalized for it.
I argue that the disclosure is for the attention of the viewer to make an educated decision whether they want to watch the video or not. It’s not about stopping bad actors from using AI to mislead or deceive.
I do not believe this applies to the type of content I produce, but I am a little confused as to what is synthetic, from reading some other contents I am guessing it has to do with AI or misleading information. 🤔
isso se refere a qualquer conteúdo que seja modificado por IA, tipo, se passando por uma outra pessoa, seja por imagem ou voz, e também modificando paisagens e lugares originais. Exemplo, mostrando um Vulcão no centro de New York... você precisa avisar para o seu público, que é apenas uma simulação...
@@cleristondigital OK thanks for the explanation (had to translate to English)
Cue all the green screen kids who just steal content without even putting their face on the video, or those who just steal content and republish it without giving any credit. You can't even label those as content creators, they're just leeching off of people who put in the work. There should be an option to report those.
I did notice the other ''AI content'' - gathering a bunch of unrelated clips put together with an AI voice narrative that is completely fake.
I wish I hadn't chosen the damn yes option. Since I did, his ratings have dropped 100%. The viewers are all on tiktotk now, and if you process the remaining viewers as Altered or Synthetic Content, youtube doesn't recommend you at all anymore. 👎
"Jennifer"is the exact kind of ... creature that makes me beleive in demonic entities
So in my case am using AI voice in my videos without using any other AI tools, So is my videos are altered content ?
OMG this started killing my reach so Im glad Im just now starting to check the box now! We’ll see if this changes things
What about cartooning backgrounds and animals based on my own dogs? Since I can't draw a circle, I was looking into mixing my dogs with AI. Is that something I check the box for? I guess so.
Not everything is AI Generated on RUclips but it good to know what is so I can skip the video
Actually, I have a BIG question. So if somebody makes Ai Art to use in their narrated videos, or if I make animated shorts but I created the video in an Ai tool like Midjourney. The content of the videos is completely fantastical, like dragons & monsters. Do I have to disclose that it is Ai if I am creating fictional stories?
Would that be "Meaningful"?
@@stjernholmreviews right now no, but when the aliens, come I'll have to mark my videos lol 😅 but that will be the least of our worries 😜
Labeling content as AI-assisted may raise questions about its necessity if the tool itself doesn't define the content's quality or significance. In such cases, one might question the rationale behind implementing AI labeling practices if the tool's involvement doesn't fundamentally alter the content's essence or impact.
At the end we need to value authenticity more than just an altered content to gain viewers
I agree with this move on YT. Could we be given a way to mark the video segment?
I use ai for all my thumbnails, but the sounds are made by me. do I need to disclose every video that has a synthetic thumbnail?
If you want to add a bulk edit option on the AI content so I can update my hundreds of videos in the backlog that would be helpful.
Great 👍
