News Summary
- Anthropic has signed the EU's Code of Practice on Transparency of AI-Generated Content.
- It plans to watermark Claude's output across its ecosystem.
- Text will carry an invisible statistical watermark, while supported visual formats will receive signed metadata noting that Claude was involved.
- Because the information is cryptographically signed, it can also help reveal whether the credential or file has subsequently been tampered with.
- Anthropic says the technique adds no characters, needs no extra tokens, doesn't change output quality, and carries nothing that identifies a user, an organization, or a chat.
Roughly threequarters of newly published web pages now carry some machinewritten text, according to a 2025 Ahrefs analysis of around 900,000 pages. This figure doesnt account for offline documents.
