OpenAI Adds Watermarks to Enhance Reliability of DALL-E 3 Images

OpenAI’s image generation tool, DALL-E 3, has announced that it will begin adding watermarks as metadata to the images it generates going forward. This change aligns with OpenAI’s efforts to comply with the Content Source and Originality Coalition regulation known as C2PA.

According to the company’s statement, in accordance with the upcoming C2PA regulations, watermarks will be applied to the ChatGPT website and images produced using the DALL-E 3 model API.

Mobile users will have access to this metadata on the images they create starting February 12th. The invisible metadata and a visible CR symbol will be positioned in the top left corner of each generated image.


Images generated in ChatGPT will also be marked

People will have the ability to verify the source of any image generated by OpenAI platforms and identify which AI tool was utilized to create the content through platforms like Content Credentials Verify.

Although the watermarking feature is currently limited to still images and cannot be applied to video or text, it provides users with valuable information. OpenAI states that watermarking has minimal impact on latency and does not degrade image quality.

The C2PA initiative, involving companies such as Adobe and Microsoft, aims to classify content identities based on whether they are created by humans or artificial intelligence. Meta, which already implements content flags, has announced its intention to adopt a similar approach.

“We believe that implementing these methods to identify sources and encouraging users to recognize these signals are crucial steps in enhancing the reliability of digital information,” stated OpenAI.
