> The college senior isn't alone in the race to rein in AI plagiarism and forgery. OpenAI, the developer of ChatGPT, has signaled a commitment to preventing AI plagiarism and other nefarious applications. Last month, Scott Aaronson, a researcher currently focusing on AI safety at OpenAI, revealed that the company has been working on a way to "watermark" GPT-generated text with an "unnoticeable secret signal" to identify its source. Ah, so magnanimous of them to sell both the plague and the cure. I say that tongue-in-cheek of course, but it seems that's where this is going, whether they make and sell both or let others do it. That is, both sides of the production and detection of this spam are about to profit handsomely from the overwhelming piles of it we're about to be drowning in.
