Yeah, it's probably not an intentional watermark, just something the model has been trained to do. Maybe some professionally written news articles already use them for the same purpose?
Still hope HN adds a filter to block any comment with those characters in it :)
- johnisgood 1y agoIt is very easy to filter those out from the output of GPT, though, using basic UNIX utilities. In fact, many methods don't survive reformatting or copy-pasting, not requiring filtering at all. It is a very basic watermark technique (text steganography) if it indeed is supposed to be one. A more advanced one would be a linguistic (grammar-based) one, but I am not going to give any more ideas. :D
- rep_lodsb 1y agoIt's easy to remove those characters, but that still requires being aware of them, and an intent to deceive. So many people just copy LLM output here because they (wrongly) believe it adds something of value to a discussion.
- johnisgood 1y agoI do not think either that pasting output of LLM typically adds anything to the conversation. It might, usually it does not.
