The rollout arrives amid growing public concern about the prevalence of AI‑created content on social media. Ler mais

ByteDance is re‑launching its AI video model, Seedance 2.0, after a backlash over deepfake content. The company has partnered with a third‑party red‑team to embed visible watermarks, C2PA Content Credentials, and an advanced invisible watermark that can track content even after it leaves the platform. New safeguards block generation from real faces and copyrighted characters, addressing concerns raised by Hollywood studios and the Motion Picture Association. The rollout will start with paid users in Brazil, Indonesia, Malaysia, Mexico, the Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam, while the United States and India are omitted pending regulatory clarity.

Google has released Nano Banana 2, the latest version of its popular AI image editing tool built on the Gemini platform. The new model combines the speed of the original with the accuracy of the Pro tier, drawing on knowledge from Gemini 3 to reduce hallucinations and improve texture, lighting, and detail. Nano Banana 2 supports 4K resolution, varied aspect ratios, and clearer text generation. To help identify AI‑created images, Google now embeds invisible watermarks called content credentials. The upgrade arrives amid growing concerns about AI‑generated “slop” flooding social media, where many users struggle to spot synthetic content. Ler mais

OpenAI’s video generation tool Sora can produce realistic deepfake videos of public figures and copyrighted characters, exposing gaps in current detection and labeling systems. Although the platform embeds Content Credentials from the Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity (C2PA), these metadata tags are not visible to most users and are often stripped before sharing on social media. Platforms such as Meta, TikTok, YouTube, and X have provided limited or no visible labeling, leaving the public vulnerable to misinformation. Experts argue that metadata alone is insufficient and call for broader industry adoption and regulatory action. Ler mais
