  value: moderate
additional property: Likely AI Summary
  type: PropertyValue
  value: Anthropic has added invisible watermarks to Claude’s outputs to help identify AI-generated text reliably.
additional property: Narrative Frame
  type: PropertyValue
  value: Anthropic as a steward of trustworthy AI development
additional property: Missing Context
  type: PropertyValue
  value: No discussion of watermark evasion risks; No mention of trade-offs between watermark detectability and text fluency or coherence; No disclosure of whether watermarking is opt-in, opt-out, or mandatory for all Claude outputs
additional property: How the Spin Works
  type: PropertyValue
  value: Combines technical jargon ('cryptographic watermark', 'statistical bias') with virtue-laden language ('responsible', 'transparency') to make a design choice feel like a public service. The framing makes the technical claim feel larger than warranted by overstating robustness and downplaying detection dependencies, creating tension between stated capabilities and absence of empirical validation.

Extracted Claims
type: ItemList
item list element: ListItem
  position: 1
  item: Claim
    text: Anthropic's watermarking system is robust against common text transformations and detectable without model access.
    appearance: ‘The watermark is designed to be robust to common transformations like paraphrasing, translation, and summarization’ and ‘can be detected without access to the model itself’ — per Anthropic’s blog post cited in article.
