Thomas Fuchsso if AI is so amazing, why don’t articles and books written with it have huge “proudly made with AI” banners and stickers on it
we all know why
kennethbspringer.au@thomasfuchs given the rate of "improvements" with AI, it is likely that the quality would improve in time to come. Be interesting to see if the content surpasses that on a human and said banners would proudly be displayed.
On the flip side, with media generation does have some marker added to the media content. While it doesn't say "proudly made with AI" but the intent to let you know it was AI generated was there.
These are done by visible Markers: Logos, icons, or "Imagined with AI" text placed directly on images, easily cropped or edited out.
Invisible Watermarks: Embedded digital signatures (e.g., Google’s SynthID) that remain detectable even after edits.
Metadata Tags: Technical data like C2PA or IPTC embedded in image files, describing how the image was created; these can be stripped easily.
This is happening now with Google (Gemini/Imagen): SynthID
OpenAI (DALL-E 3): Content credentials in metadata
Meta (Facebook/Instagram): Visible tags, invisible watermarks, C2PA metadata
Stable Diffusion (via Meta/Inria): Open-source invisible watermarking (Stable Signature)
Maybe not long to go until articles and books will follow suite? Your thoughts?

"Be interesting to see if the content surpasses that on a human"
How do you measure that AI-generated material "surpasses" it's meatspace counterpart? When it has all been trained on things created by humans? When does it go beyond jack-of-all-trades mimicry? Honest question.
And by using "imagined with AI", do you mean to say you see in AI tools and their associated LLMs the ability to imagine things just like humans would?
@stragu these are good questions and having metrics to validate the claim that "things are better" will be a bit of a challenge.
If AI learnings are based on things created by humans, and through all that big data, it can determine what materials makes a general success, including novelty. It's almost like AI can be predictive in what's the next step to increase the chances that it will be a winner.
On the flip side, if I may add my personal viewpoint/experience with AI is that AI seems to be amplifying abilities of those that use it.
Using the earlier comment reference to "no Stephen King yet". I truly believe it's a matter of when. BUT... Yes there is a but... imagine if Stephen King wielded AI to amplify his abilities? That would push Stephen's work to the next level and beyond... AI will need to continue to learn from great writers...
