On May 28, according to The VergeYoutube Announces that the AI content disclosure will be adjusted to move the "AI" label from the video description area to a more visible location. The tags for the normal long video will be shown below the player, above the description area; Shorts will be displayed as a video stack。
This adjustment is for video content that is "puzzled" or "substantive AI changes". In the past, the audience needed to expand the description area and look at " how the content is made " to see the disclosures; the new label directly identified AI with an information icon. YouTube indicates that non-physical, animation or minor modifications can still be viewed in the expanded description。
YouTube will also launch a new internal recognition signal this month. If the creator does not voluntarily disclose, but the system detects that there is a significant writing AI use of the video, the platform will automatically add an AI label. The creator can update the status of disclosure in YouTube
However, labels are kept when you use your own YouTube-based AI tools such as Veo, Dream Screen, or when the file contains C2PA metadata that are fully generated by AI。
