Watermarked LLMs: A New Era of Risky Research The European Union's latest law has sparked a flurry of innovation in AI watermarking, with Anthropic announcing its plans to use SynthID Text in its Claude models.
This development may seem like a step forward in ensuring the safety and accountability of large language models (LLMs), but new research suggests that it could have unintended consequences.
The study shows that SynthID Text can alter not only word selection but also the tools an LLM invokes, effectively changing the model's behavior under certain conditions.
