genAI slop needed as an example. And a waiver for people who weren't aware something was AI-generated.

I recommended yesterday that FarPoint leave a Robert De Niro deepfake in her OP

https://www.democraticunderground.com/132299818

because she was going to complain directly to YouTube about it, and without leaving the video she couldn't show as clearly both which video it was and how much harm the deceit did. (The creator of that video has now added the synthetic-content label YouTube tells their creators they have to add, but the label wasn't there originally.) I also thought it was a useful example because the wording of a disclaimer in the YouTube descriptions suggested the creator is the same fraudster who earlier had fooled DUers with deepfakes of Jimmy Kimmel and Obama.
