I’d figure the scenario would be that YouTube would need to respect takedown request from people whose likeness had been appropriated, which isn’t that absurd
That’s likely, but that would only help with the most viral cases. Otherwise, what’s even the chance to come across AI generated content violating your copyright in an exponentially growing ocean of slop?
On the flipside, individuals could probably maliciously claim ad revenue. That’s already a thing with music.
Does have me wondering how YouTube would verify likeness, though. I could just find a video I don’t like and claim to be a person in it. If all they need is a photo, I feel like that’d be easy to mock up. If they require government ID, that’s getting into uncomfortable UK-esque ID verification territory.
Requiring proof of identification when you are taking legal action is significantly different from requiring proof of ID at all times.
Considering how lazy YouTube is about such things they’d probably just take your word for it and force the video creator to prove it isn’t you in order to get their ad revenue back.
