This is why invisible watermarking of AI-generated content is likely to be so effective. Even primitive watermarks like file metadata. It’s not hard for anyone with technical knowledge to remove, but the thing with AI-generated content is that anyone who dishonestly uses it when they are not supposed to is probably also too lazy to go through the motions of removing the watermarking.
Depends on the watermark method used. Some people talk about watermarking by subtly adjusting the words used. Like if there’s 5 synonyms and you pick the 1st synonym, next word you pick the 3rd synonym. To check the watermark you have to access to the model and probabilities to see if it matches that. The tricky part about this is that the model can change and so can the probabilities and other things I don’t fully understand.

Couldn’t students just generate a paper with ChatGPT, open two windows wide by side and then type it out in a word document?
but that’s work.
Students view doing that as basically the same amount of work as writing the paper yourself

if you are going to do all that, just do the research and learn something.
Aye that’s exactly the same thing that I said
