[Suggestion] Copy (part of) the "Exclusive Acess" code for tagging AI-generated content.

There's a new 'feature' on Youtube that shows if a video is AI-generated in the description. It will read: "How this content was made Altered or synthetic content Sound or visuals were significantly edited or digitally generated. Learn more" Example "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hqJ7rbuCwFI"

The problem is: You will need to click on it giving it credence in the algorithm and digging deep into the description to even find this info. Having an AI-generated ICON directly on the thumbnail will prevent me from supporting this with a view. It would also simply be nice to have a 3rd party database of AI generated video IDs. But you could probably fetch it from the API without needing to manually enter all of these into the 3d party sponsorblock database.

If there's already an extension that does this, my bad, It's hard to search for the term AI since it's so short. I realize it's not quite in-line with SB's mission statement. But there's an overlap in interest and code.

Totally agree with this. I see a lot of tech/documentary style videos that are clearly AI generated using Wikipedia/ChatGPT scrips and AI voices with images.

Would be good to highlight that these are AI generated so I could watch video's by actual people on topics that they've fact-checked/put effort into.
