Chat GPT: Writing could be on the wall for telling human and AI apart

ChatGPT's developer, OpenAI, which counts Microsoft as its largest investor, is working on ways to "watermark the output" of its text generation system. Scott Aaronson, a guest researcher at OpenAI, said this would make it "much harder to take [an AI system's] output and pass it off as if it came from a human". This would help to tackle the use of AI for plagiarism in academia or the "mass generation of propaganda", he said.
