Why not? Given enough data, it's possible to train models to differentiate - especially since humans can pick up on the difference pretty well.

Excluding videos from training datasets doesn't mean excluding them from Youtube.

I agree, especially because in practice the vast majority of AI-generated videos uploaded to YouTube are going to be from one of about 3 or 4 generators (Sora, Veo, etc.). May change in the future, but at the moment the detection problem is pretty well constrained.

Ah then sure. It was this part that was problematic.

If users are still allowed to upload flagged content, then false positives almost don't matter, so Youtube could just roll out some imperfect solution and it would be fine
