DeepMind's creative lead Lorrain enhances media with AI, working on projects with Marvel, Netflix, and teaching AI filmmaking at Columbia University.

As AI tech gets smarter it’s getting harder to spot the difference between content made by a human and what’s been dreamed up by an algorithm. Google, pushing the AI envelope itself, is aware of this and wants to help.

The company conducted a massive experiment on its watermarking tool SynthID’s usefulness by letting millions of Gemini users rank it.

Google DeepMind has been using its AI watermarking method on Gemini chatbot responses for months – and now it’s making the tool available to any AI developer

I spent a couple of days last week at the University of Oxford in the UK where I spoke at and attended the Oxford Generative AI Summit. This multi-stakeholder event brought together elected and appointed officials from the UK and other countries along with academics and executives and scientists from tech and media companies.

SynthID can watermark AI-generated content across different modalities such as text, images, audio, and videos.

The move gives the entire AI industry an easy, seemingly robust way to silently mark content as artificially generated, which could be useful for detecting deepfakes and other damaging AI content before it goes out in the wild.

Google DeepMind launches SynthID, a tool that embeds invisible watermarks in AI-generated text, enhancing transparency and combating misinformation.

It’s not your typical stop-motion film when characters name pets after Sylvia Plath and read The Diary of Anne Frank — or when the story’s inspired by a quote from existentialist thinker Soren Kierkegaard.

A big moment for AI was its 1955 coinage, but this year’s Nobel haul qualifies too. Laureate Geoffrey Hinton, famously ‘a man who never sits down,’ had computers mimic the human brain for ‘deep learning’ while Demis Hassabis set up DeepMind,

SynthID is a tool for watermarking content generated using artificial intelligence (AI), including video, images, and text. Google DeepMind, an AI research laboratory, has announced that it's making its tool accessible to developers and businesses to help them identify AI-generated content.
