An AI-written article needs no label. Your proofread email gets one
Start with what the mark actually is, because it is not a stamp on the page. When a model writes, it picks each word from a set of reasonable options.
A watermark quietly splits those options into two groups using a secret key, then nudges the model towards one group. One word proves nothing. Across 500 or 1,000 words, a detector holding the key can see the pattern.
