Youtube vs. AI continues | Matt Connarton Unleashed

0:00 Speaker 1: Some YouTube news. YouTube reveals this is from music ally

0:03 Speaker 1: dot com. YouTube reveals latest changes to its AI content

0:07 Speaker 1: label system. This is something that you know could affect

0:11 Speaker 1: musicians and anybody who's creating content on YouTube, like the

0:15 Speaker 1: show for example, we stream on YouTube, says here. YouTube

0:17 Speaker 1: has been labeling AI generated videos since twenty twenty four

0:22 Speaker 1: if the creator's disclosed their use of AI tools when

0:25 Speaker 1: uploading it. Now, the company has made some changes to

0:28 Speaker 1: its labeling system. First, the labels will now be simpler

0:32 Speaker 1: and more prominent, shown directly below the video player for

0:36 Speaker 1: long form videos and as an overlay within YouTube shorts.

0:41 Speaker 1: The big change, though, is that YouTube is now using

0:43 Speaker 1: its own AI detection technology to spot videos that are

0:46 Speaker 1: AI generated. Oh good, but haven't been disclosed as such.

0:51 Speaker 1: I like this change, yeah, I mean yeah, it's I

0:56 Speaker 1: like this change. It makes sense. It does YouTube quote.

1:00 Speaker 1: If a creator does not specify whether or not they

1:04 Speaker 1: used AI, but our systems detect significant photorealistic AI use,

1:10 Speaker 1: we will now automatically apply labels unquote if the system

1:15 Speaker 1: falls flat, because this is something I always worry about

1:17 Speaker 1: people getting caught in the net who shouldn't be. If

1:20 Speaker 1: the system false flags of video the creator will be

1:23 Speaker 1: able to update its disclosure status in the YouTube studio

1:27 Speaker 1: dashboard unless they used YouTube's own AI tools, or their

1:33 Speaker 1: video includes metadata showing that it is fully generative generative AI.

1:41 Speaker 1: YouTube's added in its announcement quote it's important to note

1:44 Speaker 1: that it is a disclosure label alone does not change

1:47 Speaker 1: how a video is recommended or whether it's eligible to

1:51 Speaker 1: earn money unquote. Yeah. So part of why that's important

1:57 Speaker 1: for content creators on YouTube is if you you know,

2:00 Speaker 1: if your content is monetized or monetizable, you know, if

2:06 Speaker 1: it's fully AI generated, they're not going to let you

2:08 Speaker 1: monetize it. But there's a lot of things that you

2:10 Speaker 1: can't monetize on YouTube anyway.
