All in all, I think these "watermarks" are going to cause more problems than they solve. I don't think most people walking around in the general public can tell if something is AI generated or not. Even fewer can tell AI generated text that's had even a light editing done to it. The last thing we need now is some infantile attempt at marking text giving them bad information. Just my 2 cents.
