> "imperceptible statistical pattern”

This is how I’m feeling right now.

A “watermark” is as an author’s mark. I struggle to understand how a myriad of different texts will produce the same watermark output. How big does a text have to be to generate this sign? What is the false positive rate (where my own authentic prose—gasp—is falsely accused of being AI). How do you “prove” it’s true? Will Anthropic offer some kind of service?

I find ChatGPT to be overly loquacious, and my preference for Claude is the brevity of output. Does this mean I will now have to suffer Claude’s gibbering, too?
