For the past few hours, the whole world, or at least my LinkedIn feed, has been talking about one thing: Anthropic signed the EU AI Act’s Code of Practice on Transparency of AI-Generated Content.
Is this the end of generating funny cat stories, LinkedIn posts, and boring docs? Are we doomed? Will we have to write all those boring things manually, like animals, because otherwise some mysterious detector will expose us? 😅
I just couldn't resist writing about this! The internet has already managed to produce a surprising number of myths around the topic, so let's quickly go through what we actually know for sure, which, by the way, is pretty easy to find on Claude's official pages, where the documentation is more pleasant to read than many industry articles.
And as you'll see, there's really not that much to be afraid of. Also... Anthropic isn't even the first company to do this.
Wait, Why Do We Even Need This Law? Did AI-Generated Text Become Illegal in Europe?
