China has released a set of guidelines on labeling internet content that is generated or composed by artificial intelligence (AI) technology, which are set to take effect on Sept. 1.

    You can use those AI image detectors, but they’re not foolproof and the companies that produce AI image generators will always be trying to improve their product so that it can’t be detected. It’s a place to start, though.

    Realistically, it’ll be fear of prosecution. The real question is who they would prosecute? If a random individual posts an AI image on WeChat that isn’t tagged as AI, is the Chinese government going to fine them? Or will they go after WeChat for allowing unlabeled images to be shared?

    They can shut down companies that make AI image generation software if the software doesn’t automatically tag the image as AI generated, but that will only apply to companies within China. They’ll probably look to ban access to all AI image generation that isn’t housed within China (if they don’t already).

    And this will only ever apply to images shared publicly. If someone send a private message to someone else with an untagged AI image, nothing will happen.
