I feel like I'm more cynical than you, but I spend more time on the social platforms, it feels like. And the problem generally is you can sense it, some people can feel it, and a lot of people cannot, right? Or they just let it wash over them. And then you end up in sort of interminable fights about metadata or labeling or Google just rolled out synth ID for images that you edit in Google Photos.

None of that stuff seems to have landed. It's certainly not landed in a universal way. Vimeo has some labeling features. You have some ideas about how you might show people AI-generated content or expose that metadata to people. Do you think that's working? Is that something you're going to continue? Is that something that you think needs to be expanded?

This is the hardest question. This is like an existentially philosophical question, but... Where do you draw the line? Where do you personally think the line should be for when you have to put the label on, right? I'll give you two examples. I think I stabilize this video with AI does not require that.

I think I'm talking to a deep fake avatar of a creator that is photorealistic that is just lying to me probably requires that, right? I've replaced products in this movie with other products. Maybe requires it, right? Where do you think the line is?

I mean, the latest Marvel movie, they just sound fantastic for it. They made the poster with AI and there's fan backlash to it.

And so I'm just wondering, do you see the norms moving faster than the psychology or slower? I mean, you are shipping these products and you have such a direct line to creators. It feels like you're caught up right in the middle of, oh, where do we put the labels?

I asked that question three different ways and pushed on it, again, because it feels like the pressure on the creator economy and the social platforms is just going to go up. Mark Zuckerberg is out there openly saying we will have AI content in people's social feeds on Facebook and Instagram.
