OpenAI mulls watermarking ChatGPT generated text, but treads with caution

OpenAI has had a system ready for years to watermark text generated by ChatGPT, but it has failed to reach a consensus internally about whether to release it or not – according to the Wall Street Journal.

OpenAI has confirmed that it is working on a text watermarking method, after the report by Wall Street Journal. According to the US-based artificial intelligence company, its text watermarking method is accurate and “even effective against localized tampering, such as paraphrasing, it is less robust against globalized tampering.”
