>Personally, I prefer content created by humans—it feels more authentic and engaging to me.

I'd like to think that too, but I wonder how long - if at all - this will be true. I "want" to like human generated content more, but I suspect AI may be able to optimize for human engagement more, especially for simple dopamine inducing content (like tiktok videos). After all, we're less complicated than we like to think.

>It’s crucial for AI tools to include robust detection mechanisms, such as reliable watermarks, to help other platforms identify AI-generated content.

This will never work, unfortunately. There's no way to exclude rogue actors, and there's plenty of profit in AIs pretending to be human. If anything, we will have to watermark/sign human generated content.
