Unless there’s also a flawless system that can decide what is and isn’t AI generated, it will just be used to shut down anything anti government, while keeping pro government slop up. The way EU did it sounds better, but could still be abused in the same manner - just take down anything the government doesn’t like and say it was because they didn’t label it as AI generated, have fun going through the court system trying to prove it wasn’t.
AI fakes will always be an issue. Nothing will ever prevent someone from creating AI content and passing it as real. Especially with the complete lack of regulations on AI model makers.
At the same time AI fakes are inherently dangerous for democracies in the sense that anybody could anonymously spread misleading fakes all over social network to disrupt the democratic process and it would be very difficult to fight.
I don’t know what solutions we can find for that. I guess we will see in the EU if our approach is effective or not. Or if it is abused to censor speech. Considering our own lawmakers are also digitally illiterate I wouldn’t be surprised if there is loopholes to exploit.

I have since edited my original comment.
