The End of “AI Content”
Instagram will soon be so overrun by AI slop that it won’t make sense to label it as such anymore. In the words of Adam Mosseri:
Social media platforms are going to come under increasing pressure to identify and label AI-generated content as such. All the major platforms will do good work identifying AI content, but they will get worse at it over time as AI gets better at imitating reality. There is already a growing number of people who believe, as I do, that it will be more practical to fingerprint real media than fake media. Camera manufacturers could cryptographically sign images at capture, creating a chain of custody.
I explored a similar idea in this blog -- Braincrafted or Heartmade -- though my reasons were entirely different.
