Except is VERY heavily weights certain sources.

That’s a completely different topic though.

Not really. However much Google might index everything, they decide how to prioritize search results. The order of results makes or breaks a search engine. This argument likely wouldn't be happening if AI output were left several pages away from the top.

If someone is searching for reference images, it should not put AI generated output over photography and original art, because by its very nature AI generated images can't be the ultimate origin of any kind of image.

You can’t weigh a factor you can’t detect, and the moment it can be detected that factor is trained out of the generators.

You’re essentially asking for the impossible.

Even if AI detecting tools are flawed, most pages that feature AI art have it explicitly stated in their own text, which it's something their crawlers could definitely pick up on.

Its arguably the same topic and part of the problem. Sites that host digital copies of originals are underweighted relative to "popular" sites like Wikipedia or Pintrest or Imgur, which are more likely to host frauds or shitty duplicates.
