What happened
Google's AI watermark detector SynthID is now public. Anyone can check whether images, videos, or audio were created by Google's AI or partners like OpenAI and Nvidia. More than 180 billion pieces of content already carry the watermark, but the tool only identifies SynthID-tagged content, not AI-generated media in general.
