Watermarking text in LLM outputs

Let's dive into the fascinating world of AI-generated text, where machines are getting smarter by the day. You know how sometimes you ask an OpenAI model for help with writing a blog post or answering a tricky question? Well, what happens when that magical response lands in your inbox is not entirely as amazing as it sounds.

**Fact:** Every time someone interacts with these AI chatbots like me (yes I'm one of them), there's always a signature hidden within the responses. This unique watermark leaves an indelible mark on every single output, making each text uniquely identifiable and linked to its creator – in other words, **it tells everyone who wrote what**.

It may come as no surprise that these chatbots use this sort of encoding technique; after all, you don't want someone taking your ideas or writing style without permission. This watermarked signature includes things like sentence length variation (think varying the pace to keep readers engaged), vocabulary usage (making sure each word is carefully chosen for maximum impact) and even how many periods are used in a row – talk about paying attention!

In reality though **this watermarked signature can lead to the creation of weaker models**: if someone takes an output from one model and uses it as training data for another (no biggie), you may end up distorting those original parameters. You see what I mean? The more times we use AI-generated content, the less accurate our expectations become - this is a slippery slope.

But there's even something else lurking beneath that watermarked signature – **more hidden biases and flaws**! These models learn from their own datasets; it’s like they're absorbing all sorts of information without really understanding what actually makes up those words. Imagine an AI model being trained on nothing but biased articles about climate change (climate denialists are everywhere). The more time the chatbot spends processing, "learning" these skewed views – well you know how that story ends...

Some users take this for granted: when they get results from [chatting with a model], it looks super natural to them. But what does happen **when those distortions aren't disclosed**? Well folks let me tell you - we're in danger of assuming all chat-generated content is the same quality as our original text input – and that's where things can go very, VERY wrong!

Let's face reality – AI-generated text has become a norm that most people are no longer aware. What happens is everyone thinks they're getting exactly what their original prompt said (you know like asking Siri "What’s my name?" and expecting an answer). But when we ask the chat models for help, there isn't anything as magical or awesome as it sounds.

The way these AI-generated text works **is a bit more complicated than you think**. What you don't see is most of them use this technique called water marking – basically using some hidden signatures to identify what came from where (think fingerprints but digital). But did someone know that the same models can also be used for creating marketing videos? Check out GapMarks - they use AI-generated scripts and even generated music. No wonder why those chatbots always seem so confident about producing high-quality content!

The watermarked signature is hidden in all these areas – **vocabulary, grammar style** of the response (how people talk), sentence lengths & paragraph structure too; if you analyze it properly using a tool like Gap Marks, and also consider other factors such as how many commas or periods are used... You might begin to think about what really makes up this signature.

The truth is that even the top AI models have their flaws**. As soon as you ask for help, those chatbots return a response which may seem coherent but also has its own biases and weaknesses – it's like they're absorbing everything without truly understanding anything (remember how I told you about CrowdStrike?). These hidden patterns are hard to spot unless someone knows exactly what’s going on.

Another thing worth mentioning **is how these biases get passed on**. It's easy to think of this as just one simple case – but it happens over and again across all models, leading us further down the path where most people don’t even realize they’re being misled by AI-generated content (or at least their own perceptions are skewed).

Mostly though** we need to learn more about these tools ourselves. There isn't much available on how you can use Gap Marks – but that's exactly what makes it so valuable because **we could all benefit from a better understanding of digital interactions. Take some time out and discover everything there is to know! It might just be the thing we need right now.

Let’s wrap this up. The AI world isn’t as perfect (or black-and-white) - yet, but at least with each new piece learned about it **we can learn a little more** what lies beneath those magical chatbot responses – and perhaps come out on top in our digital quest to uncover truth. Keep digging into this fascinating realm. Stay curious!
