Kickstarter requires generative AI projects to disclose additional info

The main topic of the article is Kickstarter's struggle to formulate a policy regarding the use of generative AI on its platform. The key points are:

1. Generative AI tools used on Kickstarter have been trained on publicly available content without giving credit or compensation to the original creators.
2. Kickstarter is requiring projects using AI tools to disclose relevant details about how the AI content will be used and which parts are original.
3. New projects involving the development of AI tech must detail the sources of training data and implement safeguards for content creators.
4. Kickstarter's new policy will go into effect on August 29 and will be enforced through a new set of questions during project submissions.
5. Projects that do not properly disclose their use of AI may be suspended.
6. Kickstarter has been considering changes in policy around generative AI since December and has faced challenges in moderating AI works.
