    I wonder if this will become a new revenue stream for providers. Want to know if Claude generated some text? There's a free web form you can paste into.

    Of course, you can also run your own check service if you pay some API fees, and those checks can be a lot more convenient for users since the services can check multiple sources, to whom they are paying for the privilege.

    Then someone washes the text through a local model that rewords it, the markers are lost, amd they're clear again.

    I wonder how much output text it would take to work out the key that the watermarker is using?

    I can't believe I got this in one. I guessed a math PhD interested in steganography could come up with a good method in a week, and an idiot like me figured it out in 5 minutes.
