Disclaimers fail because AI content is too persuasive

Mandatory AI disclosure laws will be largely ineffective because of cognitive impenetrability—just as knowing an optical illusion is false doesn't make you see it correctly, knowing content is AI-generated doesn't stop it from being engaging; even an expert finds himself drawn into AI-generated video despite a disclaimer, and the small Character.AI disclaimer did nothing against the persuasive power of the actual conversation.
