I do wonder what would be an acceptable level of guarantee to trigger a “human written” bit.

I actually think a video of someone typing the content, along with the screen the content is appearing on, would be an acceptably high bar at this present moment. I don’t think it would be hard to fake, but I think it would very rarely be worth the cost of faking it.

I think this bar would be good for about 60 days, before someone trains a model that generates authentication videos for incredibly cheap and sells access to it.

Pen on paper, written without consulting any digital display. Just like exams used to be, before the pandemic.

Of course, the output will be no more valuable to the society at large than what a random student writes in their final exam.

Interesting...thinking this through: For text and ideas the information size is often small enough to fit in human memory, and thus containing this is already unsolvable! I can ask the LLM to compose the text of a pitch and then film myself writing it out. Nothing you can do will prove the provenance of those bits was not from the AI.

So I think the premium product becomes in-person interaction, where the buyer is present for the genesis of the content (e.g. in dialogue).

Image/video/music might have more scalable forms of organic "product". E.g. a high-trust chain of custody from recording device to screen.
