Someone filed an issue with WHATWG (the people that influence how standards are adopted by the major web browsers) in which they proposed a standard way to disclose the use of AI through HTML metadata:

Proposal: Meta Tag for AI Generated Content #9479

This led to the creation of the AI Content Disclosure Community Group, which has some initial members but has yet to choose a chair.

These groups are typically organized on Github, so I went to see what had been done so far on their repository.

Their repo is less than a month old and has very few committers, but it already includes contributions from claude, and this was only disclosed because I manually blocked the claude account through my github accounts settings.

They are not off to a great start.

#AI #claude #WHATWG

Their charter includes the following section

A modern news article page might have a human-written investigation next to an AI-generated summary sidebar and AI-moderated user comments. Today there is no standard way for authors to say which parts of a page involved AI, or how much.

The commit which introduced this charter was co-authored by Claude, with no indication which parts of it were written by a human, if any.
