Anthropic’s Text Watermarking Proves AI Companies Do Not Care at All About Writing
(www.404media.co)
"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
I honestly don't see anything wrong with this. AI text generators are only good for writing content no one cares about. If no one is meant to care about it, then the subtle difference between synonyms really doesn't matter. This is like someone putting a watermark inside the weaving pattern of an industrial knitting loom, and then someone complaining that this invalidates the artistic expression of knitting. It's not the watermark degrading the artistry, but the automated knitting loom.
Al writing is already soulless and devoid of artistic merit. Why complain about making it more identifiable? I really do not understand the objection at all.
