How AI text watermarking works: a visual guide
declaude.org/watermarking/Assuming a checker tool is public it’s enough for a teacher to verify classwork, but AI providers having the sole ability to identify generated content with no way to independently verify is not a real solution.
Plus this site advertises a tool to remove this watermarking, so it can’t be that hard to scrub out if you’re aware of it.
The goal is to ensure that they don’t inbreed their models, not fix the problems they’ve caused.
Replying to @Dojan@pawb.social
This won’t fix the inbreeding issue, anyway. The bias is extremely slight, but random, and orthogonal to Claude’s own “slop patterns” and tendencies. And theres tons of other LLM content that will end up in their dataset outside their control.
Besides, as much as Claude accusess others of it, everyone’s training on everyone else’s output and they know it.
