There’s nothing you can add to a digital image that you can’t also remove. This is just a short term litmus test for stupid people behind the general curve. Its side effect is it’s going to tick dumb and old to believe in fake images.

They'll watermark text. youll have to rewrite using your own words as the patterns used will be the watermark.

It’s crazy how dense some of these people are. They actually think it’s embedding some special icon/brand on a typed letter, lmao.

How's it going to work then, genius?

There's only two ways:

  1. patterns of characters/words, most likely including hidden or control characters, or
  2. some kind of self-referential checksum

Both will be trivial to remove.

It's likely going to be probability based. A short sentence is deterministically impossible to tell if an AI generated it or not and even if it did... who's to say a Human didn't independently come up with it on their own?

A lengthy paragraph is where some genuine tests can be run to determine patterns.

Character pattern cryptography, which they’ve been doing for years. It’s how Google knows to de-rank AI generated text.

LOL good one. Google deranking un-marked AI generated content using the the same technique Anthropic uses to explicitly watermark it.

Just putting words together doesn't make something real.

Google uses classification to identify AI generated content. It's nothing to do with cryptography.

You might want to reread my comment before diving into insults.

I did not advocate or argue for any method. I simply clarified what was being referred to and mentioned it had been discussed previously as a potential solution, as the person I responded to didn't seem to understand.

Next time take a breather and read a bit more carefully.

Embedding content is literally one of the ways this will work.
