Anthropic knows it because I read that they are trying to apply a watermark
to the code written by Claude. Will this measure be enough ? I'm not
sure,since I suspect there is a problem that's even more aware than those
who put their name on the code. That is, that the code itself is of poor
quality and needs to be checked line by line. Something I don't believe is
necessary for an experienced programmer. What's the point here then ? That
an invention of this magnitude needs time to be digested by humans and
integrated without anyone getting hurt.
