OpenAI has announced that within a few weeks it will introduce a digital watermark for text generated using the company’s AI tools, ChatGPT and Codex. This move comes in response to the EU’s new AI regulations, introduced two months ago, which stipulate that AI-generated content must be identifiable. Competitor Anthropic introduced a similar feature for its AI tools in August. OpenAI’s new watermark will be available worldwide, but it is enabled by default only within the EU.
