Google DeepMind has developed SynthID, a tool designed to watermark AI-generated images, making them detectable by AI detection tools. The watermark is embedded in the image’s pixels and is imperceptible to the human eye. The tool is initially available to Google Cloud customers using the Vertex AI platform and the Imagen image generator. As the system improves, Google plans to expand its use and share more about its workings. The ultimate aim is for SynthID to become an internet-wide standard for identifying AI-generated content.
