Today's episode of the Podcasting Resources Guide unpacks the nuances of YouTube's updated policies with our guest and the founder of Polymash, Juergen Berkessel. As synthetic and AI generated content is becoming more prevalent, YouTube has come up with a new policy of disclosure mandates. Juergen and Polly navigate us through this policy shift.

We examine what this policy means for the video domain and ponder its ripples across the podcasting ecosystem. We also explore ethical practices, urging podcasters to get ready for the future of these sorts of policies likely applying to AI generated music and synthetic voices.

Key Takeaways:

• 
  
• YouTube's policy change is a call for content creators to embrace transparency, marking a pivotal moment for AI-manipulated media.
