SynthID – A tool to watermark and identify content generated through AI

Would you really use Google products to write your email if you knew that they were watermarking it like this?

I think this technology is gonna quickly get eliminated from the marketplace, cause people aren’t willing to use AI for many common tasks that are watermarked this way. It’s ultimately gonna cause Google to lose share.

This technology has a basic use dilemma problem where widely publishing it’s ability and existence will cause your AI to stop being used in some applications

While I want to believe this is true, the experience of being human over the past decade or so suggests otherwise. I think, overall, most people would not even begin this line of inquiry; not to mention care once the thought is considered.
