Anthropic to Watermark AI-Generated Text Across Claude Products to Comply With EU Rules

Anthropic announced it will watermark text generated by its AI models, including Claude, to comply with the EU AI Act's transparency code, which took effect August 2. The company will apply watermarking at the model level, covering all products like Claude, Claude Code, and the API, and will extend support to older models. This move aligns with a broader industry trend, as other companies like Google, Meta, and OpenAI have also committed to the EU's transparency requirements.
