the naivete of this law has already been exposed. How are social platforms meant to distinguish between real vs fake when the facts on the ground cannot be independently verified in real time? This was already a massive challenge pre-AI, but surely impossible with the mainstreaming of generative AI tools. If liability is established, then social media is done - in fact, any type of user generated content will be done, including sites like HN - no platform will be able to guarantee veracity of what users post, and so will have to close down to protect themselves from financial ruin - which means back to monolithic control of information from actors we must then naively presume to tell us the truth
