Anthropic to watermark Claude text and images for EU AI Act compliance
Anthropic announced invisible watermarks for Claude-generated text and images, using C2PA for images and an imperceptible text watermark. Driven by EU AI Act obligations, this sets a precedent for content authenticity and compliance workflows. Broader industry push includes Canon/Google hardware C2PA and Apple's alternative approach. Robustness concerns remain (C2PA easily stripped).
