And then the question is there again, like maybe if some people are just churning out papers, maybe they won't care about that.
Maybe they'll leave the watermark.
I cite in the story the case of a conference, the um International Conference on Machine Learning, ITML, this year, that had a stream of peer review that was strictly no AI use.
So they had two options.
You can use AI in some ways, or there's one that people have requested.
where reviews must absolutely not use AI.
And they put their own kind of version of a watermark into the papers that they gave out for review.
So that if people then did do what they weren't supposed to do and use AI, it would come up with these telltale phrases they could detect on the other side.
Even though this was like really well advertised they were gonna do it, the papers about the methods were all out there, like it was quite broadly known that this was something they were gonna do.
More than five hundred people still were found to have cheated this system because they just didn't see the I don't know, laziness or what, but they they didn't get rid of this watermark that would have been very easy to get rid of, and so they were shown that they had used AI where they were not supposed to.
So I guess that shows two things.
One is that maybe watermarks will be useful in these quite strict scenarios where the rule is literally no AI allowed.
Which I would say is becoming a lot smaller that category.
And that, even though yes, it's very easy to get rid of the watermark, that doesn't mean people are always gonna do it.
It's very difficult to know.
The onus on compliance is gonna be on those big companies, so that's probably who the EU would go after first.
But it could create this kind of standard, I suppose, where everybody is expected to do it.
It is quite onerous to do also, like to add that layer.
If you ha think about it, every time it generates some text, it not only has to do the job of like, okay, what's it gonna say and then what order it then has to
add in this quite complex algorithmic element about precise word choice.
