When was the last time you received a handwritten letter?
And when did you receive an e-mail?
The topic of “mandatory AI labeling” sometimes strikes me as very short-term thinking.
It’s a bit like having to write “sent digitally” under every email…

But if you look at how quickly and rapidly the industry is developing, there will soon be almost no non-AI-generated or non-AI-assisted content left.
Social media will be flooded with automated posts, blogs on the internet as well, and our other correspondence will also be AI-fied.

Technically, this is also much easier to implement than obliging all AI manufacturers to mark their content (most of them don’t want to do this).
The C2PA can already do this today – e.g.
for seamless documentation of the processing of digital images.
From camera manufacturers to image/video editing software to publishing – documenting and confirming the man-made would be much easier than recognizing the AI-generated!

Then we can also show the producers the appropriate appreciation, which then feels just as “important” as when you receive a handwritten letter.
How do you see it?

P.S.: Industries that are now supposedly “threatened with extinction” can discover a new niche through such quality features and clearly stand out against the flood of AI content!
