- Anthropic announced new Claude models will embed watermarks in generated text and attach C2PA metadata to output files, citing compliance with the EU AI Act as the driver behind tracing AI output ancestry.
- Anthropic said it will retrofit older Claude models with the same watermarking and C2PA metadata capabilities, per the report.
Why it matters: The EU AI Act's traceability requirements are now directly shaping Anthropic's product roadmap, forcing provenance features like text watermarking and C2PA metadata into both new and existing Claude models rather than just EU-specific deployments.
