Anthropic称将为其AI模型生成的文本添加水印

Anthropic现表示，将为其模型（包括Claude）生成的文本添加水印，以遵守欧洲监管规定。这家AI模型开发商在更新后的支持页面中确认了这项水印措施。

已于8月2日生效的《欧盟AI法案透明度行为准则》要求AI公司以能够被其他系统识别的方式，标记由AI生成或编辑的内容。

Anthropic表示，所有在8月2日之后发布的模型，都将自动配备可为计算机生成的文本和文件添加水印的技术。对于文件，该公司将采用C2PA开放标准。

该公司称，也将把支持范围扩展至旧版模型，并表示当用户复制和粘贴文本时，水印将随文本一同传播。

支持页面写道：“由于水印是文本的一部分，因此当文本被复制并粘贴到其他位置时，水印也会随之传播，并且可能在经过部分编辑后依然保留。水印将在模型层面应用，这意味着无论文本来自哪一种Claude产品或界面，都会带有水印。”

目前尚不清楚用户需要进行多大程度的编辑才能移除水印。我们已要求Anthropic作出澄清；如果收到回复，将更新报道。

该公司指出，水印将适用于Claude platform API、Claude、Claude Code、Claude Cowork和Claude Tag等不同产品。

在遭到用户反弹、并希望避免监管审查后，各平台如今正加速为AI生成内容添加水印。上周，AI音乐平台Suno表示将为其平台创作的曲目添加标记，此前该公司面临一系列法律挑战。上个月，新闻通讯服务Substack与Pangram合作，以标记AI生成内容。该公司CEO克里斯·贝斯特（Chris Best）还批评了Claudefishing，这一术语用于指代使用AI生成内容的人。

除Anthropic外，Black Forest Labs、Google、Meta、Microsoft、OpenAI和Synthesia等公司也已承诺遵守欧盟的相关准则。

Anthropic will watermark text generated by its models, including Claude, to comply with European regulations, the company now says. The AI model maker confirmed the watermarking in an updated support page.

EU AI Act’s Transparency Code, which took effect on August 2, requires AI companies to mark AI-generated or edited content in a way other systems can identify them.

Anthropic said that all models released after August 2 will automatically have tech to watermark both computer-generated text and files. For files, the company is using the C2PA open standard.

The company said it will extend support for older models as well, adding that the watermark will travel when users copy and paste the text.

“Because the watermark is part of the text, it will travel with the text when it’s copied and pasted elsewhere, and may persist through some editing. Watermarking will be applied at the model level, which means it will be present no matter which Claude product or surface the text comes from,” the support page reads.

It’s not clear how much editing users need to do to remove the watermark. We have asked Anthropic to clarify and will update the story if we hear back.

The company noted that watermarking will apply to different products like Claude platform API, Claude, Claude Code, Claude Cowork, and Claude Tag.

Platforms are now rushing to watermark AI-generated content after backlash from users and to avoid regulatory scrutiny. Last week, AI music platform Suno said it will mark tracks created on its platform after a spate of legal challenges. Last month, newsletter service Substack teamed up with Pangram to flag AI-generated content. The company’s CEO, Chris Best, called out Claudefishing, a term used for people using AI to generate content.

Apart from Anthropic, other companies like Black Forest Labs, Google, Meta, Microsoft, OpenAI, and Synthesia have committed to adhering to the EU’s code.
