Some Claude users are mad that Anthropic’s new watermarks will catch them cheating at their jobs, classes

Is Anthropic's new watermarking system a travesty? Some have taken to social media to complain that it is.

The move is part of Anthropic's commitments under the European Union's AI Act, which includes transparency rules that kicked in early this month.
