I think for it to be effective you'd have to require them to provide an itemized list of WHAT is AI generated. Otherwise what if a content creator has a GenAI logo or feature that's in every video and put a lazy disclaimer.

For something like YouTube, you could have the video's progress bar be a different color for the AI sections. Maybe three: real, unknown, AI. Without an "unknown" type tag, you wouldn't be able to safely use clips.

Yes, AI could have been used anywhere in the production pipeline: AI could be in the script, could be used in the stock photo or video, and more.

The same is true for an asset's licensing/royalty-free status, which creators are surely aware of when pulling these things in.
