Disclosing use of altered or synthetic content
We encourage creators’ innovative and responsible use of content editing or generation tools. At the same time, we recognize that viewers want to know if what they’re watching or listening to is real.
To help keep viewers informed about the content they’re viewing, we require creators to disclose content that is meaningfully altered or synthetically generated when it seems realistic.
Creators must disclose content that:
Makes a real person appear to say or do something they didn’t do
Alters footage of a real event or place
Generates a realistic-looking scene that didn’t actually occurThis could include content that is fully or partially altered or created using audio, video or image creation or editing tools.
Disclose using the ‘altered content’ setting in YouTube StudioTo disclose content that is meaningfully altered or synthetically generated, the ‘altered content’ setting is available to creators using YouTube Studio on a computer or mobile device. We’ll expand this setting to other devices and YouTube apps in the future….
The video a few days ago about Comet, the foal raised by three dogs, also included:
How this content was made
Altered or synthetic content
Sound or visuals were significantly edited or digitally generated.
It was already clear that the visuals were digitally generated, which would be fine if the they were telling a true story, but Galloping Stories, the creators, don’t really say that. They say:
Galloping Stories is the place where the incredible journeys of horses come to life. In each video, we tell exciting stories of loyalty, courage, and overcoming obstacles, exploring the deep bond between horses and their owners. Whether it’s epic competitions, moments of adversity, or unexpected adventures, every story takes us on a unique and unforgettable ride. If you’re passionate about horses or simply love heartwarming stories, join us and gallop through a world of emotion and inspiration!
Sigh. That’s too bad. It was a well-written and touching story, but I won’t be posting more like it unless I can verify that the story is true.

Life is getting very confusing. I don’t know if it is me any more or an AI replica of me. The other day my reflection on the mirror answered me back.
God bless.
😀
I agree with Victor. Life is getting complicated!

…I’m not an AI fan.
I sometimes like summaries of answers, with references.
The advancements in technology is amazing but a bit scary as well. It’s hard to tell what is real and what is fabricated.
Yes, that part is getting scary if they don’t tell you.
AI generation comes at a huge cost.

I know! It’s going to get worse and worse.
Well, darn! I liken this to my first visit to Universal and seeing all those “pretend” movie sets.
AI is confusing!!!
Yes!
I also have misgivings about AI.
Parts of it are scary.
I am not a fan of AI and I worry about the future for my grandson.
I know. 🙁
I have misgivings about AI in some cases too.
This one I love – it just makes me feel good.
As long as they label it it can be useful. But honesty is essential.
It is so sweet. But A.I. can be used either for good or evil.
Yes!
No matter how it was made it is a cute family!
This one was fine because they were honest about it. They did a nice job!
