  • Watermark Your Writing to Prove You’re Human

    I’ve got a sick kid and I couldn’t sleep. My brain was going, so I’m up reading articles in the wee hours of the morning.

    By chance I came across the idea of “watermarking” your writing. Using it is a clever way to authenticate your work. Since everyone’s accusing everyone of making “AI slop” it helps to have some assurances tucked into your writing. You also add a fun little challenge to the process.

    Although you should read the whole article, the gist is:

    1. Stir up the structure
    2. Add specific details
    3. Be messy, asymmetrical, uneven, and opinionated
    4. Explore nuances from your own voice

    Extra points if you use actual Steganography to encode messages into your writing, like I did.
