YouTube Cracks Down on AI-Generated Fake Movie Trailers

YouTube is taking action against channels creating fake movie trailers using AI-generated content. Channels like Screen Trailers and Royal Trailer, which amassed millions of views with misleading trailers splicing real clips and AI-generated material, have had their ad revenue suspended. Hollywood studios are reportedly pushing YouTube to redirect this revenue. This crackdown highlights the challenges of regulating AI-generated content, protecting intellectual property, and combating misinformation on online platforms. The action follows an investigation revealing the deceptive nature of these trailers and their significant viewership.
