Anthropic to watermark Claude-generated text; extent of edits needed to remove it unclear

Anthropic will apply invisible watermarks to text and files generated by its AI models, including Claude. TechCrunch reported on Aug. 11 that the move is intended to comply with transparency requirements under the European Union’s AI Act, which took effect on Aug. 2. Anthropic said it will automatically apply watermarking to all models released since Aug. 2 and plans to expand the feature to older models.
