Ai content should absolutely be overtly marked imo. A beep should preceed ai speech, a visual for graphics, etc. This should have been a rule from the beginning.
Pretending to be human, like pretending to be a police officer, should have consequences.
"If an artificial label/watermark is the only criteria by which you can differentiate <unwanted version of product> from <wanted version>, by definition there's nothing wrong with the unwanted product itself"
Of course, "art" isn't one fixed standard of quality/features, and you can get "watermark-requiring parity" with average/bad/unmemorable creations but not the top percentile that's actually valued, for example.
So if I can make an AI agent which talks to you just like your husband/wife/girlfriend etc, I can just send you messages without identifying myself as an AI?
I mean, if you can't tell the difference it doesn't matter right?
This is a ludicrous comparison, because in your scenario there is deception.
If you choose to read a story, then unless it's purported to be by an author you know to be human, or explicitly claims to be written by a human, there is no deception.
It’s not a ludicrous comparison because people are saying that AI books should not label that they are by AI.
My point is that books (fiction or non fiction) should label that they are by an AI or by a human.
Someone said to me, if you can’t tell which did it, then it doesn’t matter. Well my assertion is that even if you can’t tell the difference, the provenance DOES matter.

What does that even mean

Can you apply the same logic to, say, factory farm meat, or conflict diamonds?
