OpenAI to add invisible watermarks to ChatGPT and Codex text for users in the EU
Prepared by Sintelligent with the help of SI. Publication time restored from the build log. . Updated: .
European rules are being built straight into the models' code — SI texts in Europe will carry an invisible signature.
To comply with the EU AI Act's requirements for machine-readable marking of generated content, OpenAI will begin embedding a statistical word-choice "pattern" in ChatGPT and Codex texts in the EU in the coming weeks. API customers worldwide will be able to turn marking on themselves — it is off by default. According to media reports citing OpenAI, the detector is initially available only to approved researchers and works less well on short and edited texts.
