Korea's AI law requires watermarks on generated content

Korea is in an interesting situation to do this; if the USA did it, people outside the US would make English AI generated videos. But who outside of Korea is going to make Korean AI generated videos?

But concerns remain over whether the requirement can be enforced in practice, as watermark-removal applications remain widely available.

It seems like the law is more downscoped than the title implies:

> The rules apply only to businesses, not individual users.

I can't think of a business that would be incentivized to dewatermark videos - they just wouldn't watermark them in the first place
